Step 1:
Find the difference between the two numbers.
$2.40-$1.44= $0.96

Step 2:
Divide by the original number.
$0.96/1.44= 0.667

Step 3:
Multiply by 100 to find percent increase.
0.667 * 100= 66.7% rounded to one decimal place or 67% rounded

Hope this helped! :)

Nadya [2.5K]

There are several algebraic properties of equality.

<em>The property that shows that both distance are the equal is the symmetric property of equality</em>

Represent the distance between the elephants and the giraffes with x

Represent the distance between the tigers and the zebras with y

The symmetric property of equality states that:

<em>For 2 expressions or numbers; x and y</em>

<em>If x = y, then y = x</em>

<em />

<em />

<em />

In this context, the above property means that:

<em>If the distance between the elephants and the giraffes is the same as the distance between the tigers and the zebras, then both distance are equal</em>

<em />

Hence, the property to use is the symmetric property of equality

Pleaseee help, Solve for x and y :3
irina1246 [14]

Answer:

x = \sqrt{6} , y = 2\sqrt{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

using the tangent ratio and the exact value tan45° = 1 , then

tan45° = \frac{opposite}{adjacent} = \frac{x}{\sqrt{6} } = 1 , then

x = \sqrt{6}

----------------------------------

using the cosine ratio in the right triangle and the exact value

cos45° = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } , then

cos45° = \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} = \frac{\sqrt{6} }{y} = \frac{1}{\sqrt{2} } ( cross- multiply )

y = \sqrt{6} × \sqrt{2} = \sqrt{12} = 2\sqrt{3}

It is 30y because there are 7 days in a week and each week you deposit $5 so 5*7 is 30.
