17∠x-11 set up the equation like this
28∠x add 17 to the other side, and you get x is greater than 28
Answer:
Can you show me the pattern?
The answer is C because 100 doesn’t change but 12 is dependent on the number of people.

<u><em>Step-by-step explanation:</em></u>
- Since the triangle is right use the tangent ratio to solve for x

- Multiply both sides by
x ×
( divide both sides by
)
x = ≈ ( nearest tenth )
I'm pretty sure $39.31 was the original sales cost because if you use proportions to find out what is 7.2% of 42.35 ( what you get you you subtract 45 by 2.65). Your equation would be x/42.35 = 7.2/100. 42.35 is the whole because tax is adding money onto your original cost, making that the part. When you cross multiply you get 100x = 304.92. Then you divide by 100 on both sides to isolate the variable, to get x = 3.04. But you don't stop there. Since 3.04 is only the 7.2%, you have to subtract that by 42. 35 to get a sum of 39. 31 as your total.
