We need to find the percent, let's start but making the equation.
The price is 2.69
The tax cost is 0.13
So what percent of 2.69 is = 0.13.
Equation: X/100 x 2.69 = 0.13
Multiply each side by 100 so we can get x alone with the price: 2.69x = 13
Now to get x alone, we must divide both sides by 2.69: x = 4.8
Finally, we just round 4.8 to the nearest whole number, which is 5 (5 or above give it a shove, 4 or below let it go, we have 8 so we give it a shove). This means that the answer will be 5%.
I hope this helps! :)
Hello from MrBillDoesMath!
Answer:
7/3 and 14/3 inches
Discussion:
Let P1 = "Piece 1" and "P2 = Piece 2", Then P2 = 2 * P1 and
P1 + P2 = 7 => as P2 = 2 P1
P1 + 2P1 = 7 =>
3P1 = 7 => divide both sides by 7
P1 = 7/3
Then P2 = 2 P1 - 2* (7/3) = 14/3
Thank you,

Answer:
0.79
Step-by-step explanation:
19 / 24 is 0.79166667
So it's 0.79
Step-by-step explanation:
y is easy.
it is the Hypotenuse (baseline) of the small right-angled triangle created by the height (8) of the main triangle, the segment 6 of the main Hypotenuse and y.
so, Pythagoras :
y² = 8² + 6² = 64 + 36 = 100
y = 10
x is a bit more complex.
I think the easiest way to get it is to know that the height of a right-angled triangle to the Hypotenuse is the square root of the product of both segments of the Hypotenuse.
so, if we call the segments of the Hypotenuse a and b with a = 6, we have
x = a + b = 6 + b
height (8) = sqrt(a×b) = sqrt(6b)
therefore,
6b = height² = 8² = 64
b = 64/6 = 32/3 = 10 2/3 = 10.66666666...
so,
x = 6 + 10.66666... = 16.666666666...
round it to what is needed. e.g. 2 positions after the decimal point (hundredths) ? then it would be 10.67
