Its very simple. You see, consider a right angled triangle, and the side opposite to the right angle or the largest side is Hypotnuse and the side the is adjacent to the angle that you choose is the adjacent side.
Step 1:
Add rent & car payments
=11,250+1422
=$12,672
Step 2:
to determine %, set up a proportion
12,672 is to his total of 39,600 as x is to 100
12,672/39,600 = x/100
cross multiply
(12,672)(100) = (39,600)(x)
1,267,200= 39,600x
divide both sides by 39,600
32%= x
OR
Alternative Step 2:
12,672 ÷ 39,600= 0.32
Alternative Step 3:
0.32 x 100 = 32%
or move decimal to the right 2 places
His rent and car payments are 32% of his earnings.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
With Two points is enough to describe this graph
![\left[\begin{array}{ccc}\frac{4}{6} &0\\0&-4\\\end{array}\right]](https://tex.z-dn.net/?f=%5Cleft%5B%5Cbegin%7Barray%7D%7Bccc%7D%5Cfrac%7B4%7D%7B6%7D%20%260%5C%5C0%26-4%5C%5C%5Cend%7Barray%7D%5Cright%5D)
Step-by-step explanation:
Interception with Y axis (y=0), thus we have the following equation:
The point for this is (4/6 , 0)
Interception with x axis (x=0), thus we have the following equation:
The point for this is (0, -4)
Since 6x - 44 and 88 degrees are the same (exterior angles), we can start off with the first equation, 6x - 44 = 88
6x - 44 = 88
+44 +44
6x = 132
÷6 ÷6
x = 22
same with the second problem (exterior angles are equal):
equation:
15x + 6 = 9x + 54
-6 -6
15x = 9x + 48
-9x -9x
6x = 48
÷6 ÷6
x = 8
Hope this helped! :D
Answer:
9
Solution:
Write it in an algebraic form (x is your number)
2x-11=7
Now solve
2x=7+11=18
X=18/2=9
