Jose, baulus, and George are having a disagreement over interest rates. Jose says that 6 3/4% can be expressed as 6.75%. George

otez555 [7]

Answer:

Jose and George are correct

Baulus is incorrect

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$6\frac{3}{4}$ %

Required

Compare the above expression with

Jose: 6.75%.

George: 0.0675

Baulus: 0.0675%

The expression  $6\frac{3}{4}$ % is given as a mixed fraction;

In Jose's case, he simply converted it to decimal

Converting $6\frac{3}{4}$ % to decimal;

First, we need to convert to improper fraction

$6\frac{3}{4}$ % in improper fraction is $\frac{27}{4}$ %

Then, we divide the numerator by the denominator

$\frac{27}{4}$ % = 6.75%.

Hence, Jose is correct

In George's case, he solved further by removing the % from Jose's answer.

% means divided by 100; In other words, x% means that we divide x by 100

So, 6.75% means we divide 6.75 by 100

$\frac{6.75}{100}$ = 0.0675

Hence, George is also correct

But same can't be said of Baulus;

Baulus converted $6\frac{3}{4}$ % as 0.0675%

This means that he converted $6\frac{3}{4}$ as 0.0675 then he appended it with the percentage sign (%)

Since $6\frac{3}{4}$ is not equal to 0.0675, then we can conclude that Baulus is incorrect

Find the missing side

LiRa [457]

Answer:

-2.44

Step-by-step explanation:

Is a right angle triangle

We apply SOHCAHTOA

SOH is sin=Opposite divided by Hypotenuse

CAH is cos=Adjacent divided by Hypotenuse

TOA is tan=Opposite divided by Adjacent

so in this case,cos is the right thing to use

Therefore,x=adjacent

15=Hypotenuse

angle=52°

Cos(52)=x÷15

making x the subject,

x=15cos(52)

x= -2.44

Lorenzo has a checkbook balance of $118.00. He writes two checks, one for $9.00 and one for $84.25. He then deposits $95.00. Fin

natka813 [3]

Hey there!!
So lets do something I like to call "The Process of Elimination".

D is not correct because 118 -95 is not true! Lorenzo DEPOSITED 95.00 which means he added that amount to his balance and not took it away.

B is incorrect because there is no need to divide , here we are simply either taking away money from his current balance or ,we are adding.

C would be incorrect as well, because recall how i said that 95.00 dollars were "deposited" so he would add 95 , and not take it away.

That leaves us with A . Yay.....but wait, not so fast!
Lets double check shall we?

so he had 118,correct? he wrote a check for 9 dollars and 84.25. Keep in mind, that when someone writes a check, there taking money away from there account, which means subtract 9 and 84.25 from 118.
And then , lets not forget that 95 he deposited.
Deposit means add.

So yes! A is the correct answer!

Hope my explanation helped :)

Answer:

B. Dog 1's position is Dog 2's position reflected across the x-axis; only the signs of the y-coordinates of Dog 1 and Dog 2 are different.

Step-by-step explanation:

First it is reflected on the x-axis because it is above and below. if its was the y-axis (which it is not) it would be side to side, if that makes sense.

Secondly the x values are the same, they are both -6. So, the y values are the ones that are different.
