I need a easy way to do percentage

It depends on what you are trying to calculate but the most common way I go to find percentage is to multiply by the number in decimal for ie. 50% = .5.

If you are looking for a way to do it quickly in your head I always take find out what 10% is like in the case of 100 it would be 10 so if I want to find 15% I know I can find 10% and if I cut what 10% is in half I will find 5% so likewise if I add what 10%+5% I will end up with 15%. For example, 10% of 100 is 10 half of 10 is 5 and 10+5 equals 15. If you need to find something like 20% or 30% I know that I can find 10% and instead of dividing(cutting it in half) I can multiply by 2 or 3. 10% + 10% =20%

I hope it helps, if you have more questions let me know!

X^2 + 6x - 18 solve for x​
Simora [160]

Answer:

x = - 3  ± √27 or if you want it in decimal form correct to  nearest hundredth:

x = -8.20, 2.20.

Step-by-step explanation:

x^2 + 6x - 18 = 0

this will not factor so we use completing the square:

x^2 + 6x = (x + 3)^2 - 9 so:

(x + 3)^2 - 9 - 18 = 0

(x + 3)^2 = 27

x+ 3 = ±√27

x = - 3  ± √27

It is 185 miles to Fort Worth.if Vang drives 2 hours at 65 miles per hour, how far will he be from Fort Worth ?
arsen [322]

Answer:

Answer is 55 miles.

Step-by-step explanation:

65 miles an hour means every hour you cover 65 miles of land. So if it has been 2 hours, you would have crossed 130 miles of land. 185-130=55. Which is why the answer is 55 miles left to go.

In the diagram, R, S, and T are all points of tangency. What is the perimeter of Triangle<br> XYZ?
Molodets [167]

Answer:

54 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter = TZ + TX + RX + RY + SY + SZ

TZ = 5 cm

TX = 13 cm

RY = 9 cm

RX = TX = 13 cm (tangents drawn from and external point)

SY = RY = 9 cm (tangents drawn from and external point)

SZ = TZ = 5 cm (tangents drawn from and external point)

Plug in the values:

Perimeter = 5 + 13 + 13 + 9 + 9 + 5 = 54 cm
