Let's find the difference between the prices.

2.86-2.81=0.05; now let's see what percent 0.05 is of 2.81.

0.05/2.81

0.0178= 1.78%=1.8%

So, it increased about 1.8%.

MakcuM [25]

Answer:

-\frac{1}{200}

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{6}{10}×\frac{3}{10}-\frac{2}{10}+\frac{4}{10}

\frac{6}{10}×\frac{3}{10}=\frac{18}{100}

\frac{18}{100}-\frac{2}{10}=-\frac{1}{50}

-\frac{1}{50}+\frac{4}{10}=\frac{1}{200}

There is a triangular parking lot at the local mall. The second angle of the triangular parking lot is six more than twice as la
Travka [436]

Answer:

The measure of the three angles are;

The first angle is 62°

The second angle is 28°

The third angle is 90°

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information are;

The shape of the parking lot = Triangular

Let the angles of the triangle be given as follows

First angle = A

Second angle = B

Third angle = C

The given triangle interior angle dimensions are;

A = 6 + 2× B

C = A + B

However, we have;

A + B + C = 180° (Angle sum property for a triangle)

Therefore;

A + B + C = 180° gives;

C + C = 180° (Transitive property)

2·C = 180°

C = 180°/2 = 90°

C = 90°

However, C = A + B  therefore;

90° = A + B and, A = 6 + 2 × B, we get;

A + B = 90° (Symmetric property)

6 + 2× B + B = 90° (Substitution property)

6 + 3·B = 90°

3·B = 90° - 6° = 84°

B = 84°/3 = 28°

B = 28°

From, A = 6 + 2 × B, we have;

A = 6 + 2 × 28° = 62°

A = 62°

First angle = A = 62°

Second angle = B = 28°

Third angle = C = 90°

The measure of the three angles are;

First angle is 62°

Second angle is 28°

Third angle is 90°.
