A group of friends were working on a student film. They spent all their budget on props and costumes. They spent $243 on props, and 55% of the total budget on costumes. What was the total budget for their student film?

The total budget for their student film was $540

Step-by-step explanation:

The total percentage of any quantity is 100%

∵ A group of friends was working on a student film

∵ They spent all their budget on props and costumes

∴ The total budget of the props and costumes = 100%

∵ They spent $243 on props

∵ They spent 55% of the total budget on costumes

→ Find the percentage of the props

∴ The percentage of the props = 100% - 55%

∴ The percentage of the props of the total budget = 45%

→ That means 45% of the total budget = 243

∵ 45% × total budget = 243

→ Change the percent to a number by divide it by 100

∵ 45% = 45 ÷ 100 = 0.45

∴ 0.45 × total budget = 243

→ Divide both sides by 0.45

∴ The total budget = 540

∴ The total budget for their student film was $540

what "following statement"?

step-by-step explanation:

answer: (-8,4) are the coordinates of a

step-by-step explanation:

let the side of square abcd is x .

thus the area of square abcd is .

now, by the diagram area of triangle ead= 1/2 × ea × ad = 1/2 × ea × x

( because ad is the side of square)

and, according to the question,

the areas of square abcd and right ead are equal.

⇒

⇒ea=2x

thus, ea: ab=2: 1

therefore, point a divides line segment eb into the ratio 2: 1.

⇒ by sectional formula coordinates of a are,

=

=

=(-8, 4)

thus the coordinates of a are (-8,4)
