A simple ratio will probably work. 10=3
x=9?
Cross multiply. 3x= 90 This x=30

X will equal 30. If y equals 9, then that means it was multiplied 3 times, so you do the same with x. 10*3=30.

A sweater that normally costs $32.00 is on sale for $24.00. What is the percent

Vlad1618 [11]

Answer:

25 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentage is given by :

$\%=\dfrac{\text{original value-new value}}{\text{origial value}}\times 100$

Original cost of sweater is $32 and sale cost is $24. So,

$\%=\dfrac{32-24}{32}\times 100\\\\=25\%$

Hence, 25 % is the markdown on the sweater.

What is the value of x, and what is the missing angle?<br><br> NO LINKS, THEY WILL BE REMOVED

MrRissso [65]

Answer:

x = 14

Missing angles: 33° and 57°

Step-by-step explanation:

(2x + 5) + (3x + 15) = 90° (complementary angles)

Add like terms

5x + 20 = 90

5x = 90 - 20

5x = 70

x = 70/5

x = 14

✔️Plug in the value of x to find each missing angle:

2x + 5 = 2(14) + 5 = 33°

3x + 15 = 3(14) + 15 = 57°
