Answer:
Both calculated the slope as 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
Avis:
Rise = 4
Run = 12
Rise goes over the run: 4/12
4/12 simplifies into 1/3
Alec:
Rise= 2
Run= 6
Rise goes over the run: 2/6
2/6 simplifies into 1/3
You want to leave a 15% tip on a meal that cost $15.77.
First, convert the 15% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 15%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "15%" becomes 15% / 100% = 0.15 in terms of a real mathematical number.
Second, you need to find out what 15% of your $15.77 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.15 by $15.77, or
0.15 x $15.77=$2.37.
So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $2.37.
This makes the total cost of your meal (to write on your charge slip or other payment)
$15.77 + $2.37 = $18.14
$18.14 is your answer
Answer:
8 groups.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are told that Luis purchased 24 purple plants and 8 pink plants. He wants to plant them in equal groups in his garden. We are asked to find out largest number of groups he can make.
To solve this problem we will find GCF of 24 and 8.
Factors of 24 are: 1,2,3,4,6,8,12 and 24.
Factors of 8 are 1,2,4 and 8.
We can see that greatest common factor of 24 and 8 is 8.
Therefore, Luis can make 8 groups each having 3 purple plants and 1 pink plant.
