a. 25
b. 37.5
c. 50
d. 62.5
e. 75

percentage of professional professor are 75

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

academic professors A = 60%

professors  tenured P = 70%

professors at Paracelsus University = 90%

to find out

what percent of the professional professors

solution

we know 90% of the professors are academic professors or tenured or both so we can say percent of academic professors = 60 + 70 - 90 = 40

because here

total = A + P - both

90 = 60 + 70 - both

both = 40

so professors  tenured will be here 70 - 40 = 30

so

percentage of professional professor are = 30 / 40 × 100

percentage of professional professor are 75

answer

d. 10

explanation

the distance from point y to wx is the height of the triangle.

using pythagoras theorem,

group similar terms to get,

this implies that,

take positive square root of both sides to get,

this implies that,
