What I would do is start with the price of the dessert and the sales tax $3.85+ $1.15= $5. I started with this because when you add the cents they equal a dollar which makes it easier to continue.
Then I would add the 2.75. This would be 7.75.
Then add 7.75 + 8.50. To simplify this, you can add 7 + 8, then .75+ .50
Which would equal 15 + 1.25 + 16.25
Answer:
Total fringe needed = 132 inches
Step-by-step explanation:
P.S - The exact question is -
Given - Alejandra plans to sew fringe on a scarf. The scarf is shaped like a rectangle. The length of the scarf is 44 inches. The width is one half the length.
To find - How much fringe does Alejandra need?
Proof -
Total fringe needed = Perimeter of the rectangle.
Now,
We know that,
Perimeter of the Rectangle = 2(Length + Width)
Now,
Given that,
Length = 44 inches
Width = one half the length
= 
× 44 = 22 inches
⇒Width = 22 inches
∴ we get
Perimeter of the Rectangle = 2(44 + 22)
= 2(66) = 132 inches
⇒Perimeter of Rectangle = 132 inches
∴ we get
Total fringe needed = Perimeter of the rectangle = 132 inches
⇒Total fringe needed = 132 inches
You don't need to understand the construction or why it works. You only need to accept the fact that it does. You can figure out the answers to this question by looking at the picture.
RT is tangent to circle Q -- TRUE. That is the point of the construction.
QT is a radius of circle Q -- TRUE. Q is the center and T is on the circle. A line segment from the center to a point on the circle is a radius.
m∠QSR = 90° -- FALSE. Those points lie on the same line. The measure of the angle is 180°.
QS = QT -- FALSE. S lies inside circle Q, so is closer to the center than T, which lies on the circle. (For some choice of point R, S might lie on the circle, but because this statement is not always true, it must be considered false.)
ΔRTQ is a right triangle -- TRUE. A tangent line is always perpendicular to the radius to the point of tangency. The construction succeeds because RTQ is inscribed in semicircle RTQ (centered at S). Such a triangle is always a right triangle.
Answer:
B = (6, 4)
Step-by-step explanation:
You know that the midpoint is calculated as ...
M = (A +B)/2
Solving this for B, we find ...
2M = A + B
B = 2M - A
Filling in the coordinate values, we get ...
B = 2(5, -2) -(4, -8) = (2·5-4, 2(-2)+8)
B = (6, 4)
25 to 45 can also be written as 25/45
Both numbers are divisible (can be divided by) 5
25 divided by 5 = 5
45 divided by 5 = 9
So 25/45 = 5/9
They are equivalent fractions because they’ve been divided by the same, shared number
