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

If ∠A and ∠B are supplementary and m∠A = 37°45', then m∠B = ______.
xenn [34]

Answer: 142°15'

Explanation:

Supplementary angles are angles that add up to make a straight angle (180^{\circ}).

Therefore, we must find the angle ∠B such that

∠A + ∠B = 180° (1)

We know that ∠A = 37°45', so we can re-arrange equation (1) to find the magnitude of ∠B:

∠B = 180° - ∠A = 180° - 37°45' = 142°15'

So, the correct answer is

142°15'
