Answer:

$3.4875

Step-by-step explanation:

AS the ride is completed and according the rule the person have to give a tip on the total taxi ride

according to the given

tip given 15%

Total ride cost = $23.25

To find is the total tip given in dollars

Solution:

Total tip in dollars = 15 % of total ride cost

Putting the values of the given

Total tip in dollars = 15 % of 23.25

it can be written as

                             = \frac{15*23.25}{100}

                              =\frac{348.75}{100}

                               =$ 3.4875

So the total tip would be $3.4875

Together Ron and Tori have 35 trading cards. Ron has 9 more than Tori. How many cards does Ron have?
Anit [1.1K]
Ron has 22 cards
number one tip in math, try to create equation!
set number of cards Ron has as x (always set x as what you are looking for)
set number of cards Tori has as (x-9) because if Ron has 9 more cards than Tori that's same thing as saying Tori has 9 cards less than Ron
Number of cards Tori and Ron has need to equal 35
Therefore,
x + (x-9) = 35
Solve:
2x-9=35
bring over 9 to other side
2x=44
divide both sides by 2
x=22
So number of cards Ron has is 22

4x^2-7x=15<br> Solve by factoring and please please please explain or show the work
vodomira [7]

Answer:

x=3 and x=-1.25

Step-by-step explanation:

4x^2-7x=15

subtract 15 from each side:

4x^2-7x-15=0

factor  (trying different numbers that the sum is 7 and the quotient is 15)

(2x-6 )(2x+2.5 )=0

2x-6=0 add 6 to each side

2x=6

x=3

2x+2.5=0   subtract 2.5 from each side

2x=-2.5

x=-1.25

Plzzz help 100+ points
o-na [289]

Answer:

1) 95% is the minimum

Step-by-step explanation:

If 5 tests were taken, and 100 pts each, and he received 77/100 on all 5 tests, then his grade would be 385/500 being 77%. Add another 100 pts to the denominator (for the last test) and 95 to the numerator, equaling 480/600, or 80%.
