C is the answer

Re: Sentence Correction(700 level)

two actions are there on these questions.
first, the initial belief that wealth was less

hence answer is E.

Re: For which of the following values of n is \((-0.5)^n\) the greatest?

Remember, any value in decimal, when the power is applied its absolute value decreases. for 0.5 > 0.5^2. here, because of the negative sign, it gives the question another twist! now a positive sign will always be greater than negative !! negative to the power even nos will be positive right! so here...


Re: If Steve’s original salary is increased by 5 percent and then, 3 months later, his salary is increased again by 20 p

Remember this formula for successive percentage calculation.
for eg
first, the percentage increase is x% and then further increase is y%,
then the overall increase will be calculated as :
x + y + x*y/100.
here x is 5, y is 20.
ans: 5 + 20 + (5*20)/100
hence 5 + 20 + 1
ans is 26.


Re: Paul sells encyclopedias door-to-door. He earns $160 on every paycheck, regardless of how many sets he sells. In add

Let's just say, he earned 1320$ on his best month now he will get 160$ regardless of what he sells, so let's subtract that amount to get the sales idea. so now 1320 - 160 = 1160$ now since the money remaining is greater than 1000$ meaning he has earned a full 10% on his sales commission. hence he at...


Re: In the multiplication above, \(\#\) represents a single digit. What digit does \(\#\) represent?

Hence ...


Re: In the figure above, square \(ABCD\) has an area of \(25.\) What is the area of the circle with center \(O?\)

ABCD is a square with area 25. now let side length be a. hence a^2 = 25 ie a = 5. Now, a= AD = 5. Imagine drawing a line from O to X which is on AD and bisects it in half. Now consider AOX triangle here AX is 5/2 in length, since ABCD is a square , hence angle OAD will be 45 degrees. Now OA cos 45 =...
