We need to find the percent increase from 38.8 to 82.4, so

x * 38.8 = 82.4
x = 82.4/38.8
x = 2.1237

Multiply by 100 to convert to percentage (move decimal 2 places to the right)

2.1237 = 212.37%

Now we can apply this percentage increase to the onion dip...

0.48 x 212.37% =
0.48 x 2.1237 = 1.019 
 
Round to the nearest cent $1.02 is the amount of increase.  Now add it to the original price to get today's price...

$1.02 + .48 = $1.50

Write the equation of the line that is parallel to y=-0.75x and that passes through the point (8,0)
Mila [183]

Equation of line parallel to y = -0.75x that passes through (8,0) is: y = -0.75x-6

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

y=-0.75x

The coefficient of x is the slope of the line so the slope of given line is: -0.75

As parallel lines have equal slopes so the required equation of line will have the same slope.

The slope-intercept form is:

y = mx+b

Putting the value of the slope

y = -0.75x+b

To find the value of b, putting the point in the equation

0 = -0.75(8)+b\\0 = -6+b\\b = 6

Putting the values of m and b, we get

y = -0.75x-6

Hence,

Equation of line parallel to y = -0.75x that passes through (8,0) is: y = -0.75x-6

How do I solve this to find angle G?
VashaNatasha [74]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The angle at E is 90 degrees.

All tangents of a circle always meet the radius at a 90 degree angle.

90 + 67 + G = 180o    All triangles have 180 degrees. Combine left.

157 + G = 180o           Subtract 157 from both sides.

157 - 157 + G + 180 - 157

G = 23

A car travelled at 50 km/hr for 3 hours How far did the car travel?
jasenka [17]

Answer:

25km

Step-by-step explanation:

50 km = x km

1 hr        3 hrs

From there, you cross-multiply and solve for x.

(50 km)*(3 hrs) = (x km)*(1 hr)

x km = (50)*(3)/(1) = 150km

Now, your other question can be answered the exact same way. 30 minutes is the same as 1/2 of an hour, so just put 0.5hrs in where the 3hrs was in the previous problem. So to show you how it works once more, here are your calculations:

50 km = x km

1 hr        0.5 hrs

(50 km)*(0.5 hrs) = (x km)*(1 hr)

x km = (50)*(0.5)/(1) = 25km

I hope that helps!
