Plot A of Astan Apple Orchard's produced an average of 246.343 bushels of apples over the last 5 years. The average number of bad bushels in the same period was 20.12. The approximate percentage of bad bushels was

The approximate percentage of bad bushels was 8.17%.

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of bad bushels is given by the average number of bad bushels multiplied by 100 and divided by the average of bushels.

We have that:

Average number of bushels: 246.343

Average number of bad bushels: 20.12

The approximate percentage of bad bushels was

20.12*100%/246.343 = 8.17%

The approximate percentage of bad bushels was 8.17%.

the correct option is 2.

step-by-step explanation:

according to the given information triangle abc is a right angle triangle with right angle at a. segment ab is 5 and segment ac is 7. point d is on segment bc and angles adb and adc are right angles.

it is given that triangles abd, cad, and cba are similar.

two triangles are similar if their corresponding sides are proportional.

in triangle cba, using pythagoras theorem

                      )

triangle abd and cba are similar,

                            (2)

triangle cad and cba are similar,

                      )

using (1), (2) and (3), we get

hence proved.

therefore option 2 is correct.
