109.14 x 7% = 7.6398
Therefore, 109.14 - 7.6398
= 101.5002

The answer is $102 per night before tax is added. This is because tax adds up to $7.14.

Hope this helps!

Calculate the value of A to one decimal place

WINSTONCH [101]

Okay, you will need to use the law of cosines for this problem.

The Law of Cosines states (in this case): a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2 * b * c * cos A, where "a" is the side opposite angle A (7 inches), and b and c are the other two sides.

Plug the numbers in and you get: 7^2 = 5^2 + 9^2 - 2 * 5 * 9 * cos A, or:

49 = 25 + 81 - 90 * cos A.

Subtract (25 + 81) from both sides to get:

-57 = -90 * cos A.

Divide by -90 on both sides:

cos A = 19/30

To find A, you do the inverse trigonometric function to get:

cos^-1 of (19/30) = A.

I don't have a calculator that can do this right now, but if you plug the left side of the above equation into it (make sure it is in degrees, not radians), you should get A.

Check the picture below.

now, notice, each square in the grid is 2 units, so, x = 8, y = 10 and x = 13, y = 5

$\bf slope = {{ m}}= \cfrac{rise}{run} \implies 
\cfrac{{{ f(x_2)}}-{{ f(x_1)}}}{{{ x_2}}-{{ x_1}}}\impliedby 
\begin{array}{llll}
average\ rate\\
of\ change
\end{array}\\\\
-------------------------------\\\\
\qquad 
\begin{cases}
x_1=8\\
x_2=13
\end{cases}\implies \cfrac{f(13)-f(8)}{13-8}\implies \cfrac{5-10}{13-8}\implies \cfrac{-5}{5}\implies -1$

-1 or -1/1, or -(vertical distance) / (horizontal distance)

the negative means is dropping, and 1/1 means, for every foot going down, it moves farther away from the kicker by 1 foot.
