Answer:

  -66, 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the first number. Then the second number is 14-x, and the difference is ...

  x - (14-x) = -146

  2x = -132 . . . . . . add 14, collect terms

  x = -66 . . . . . . . . the first number

  14-x = 14-(-66) = 80 . . . . . . the second number

Answer:

-66 & 80

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the two numbers be x and y

x + y = 14 (1)

x - y = -146 (2)

Adding (1) & (2),

2x = -132

x = -66

y = 14 - x = 14 - (-66) = 14 + 66

y = 80

You are at a restaurant and your bill comes to $31.18. The sales tax is 6% and you give the waitress a 20 percent tip on the tot
Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

$ 0.34   or 34 cents

Step-by-step explanation:

Bill amount = $31.18

sales tax = 6%  of $31.18

             =  0.06 ($31.18)

             = $1.8708

Bill with tax = $31.18+$1.8708

                  = $33.0508

value of tip = 20% of 33.0508

                   =  6.61016

Total  payment  = 33.0508+ 6.61016

                           = $39.66096

                          or $39.66

                         We get change of $40 - $39.66

                                                = $ 0.34        

We shall get back in  cents that will be 34   cents

The length of a solar car race track is supposed to be 4.8 meters.
snow_tiger [21]

Answer:

  -12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

A percentage change is computed using ...

  percent change = ((new amount) -(original amount))/(original amount) × 100%

We want to find the percentage change from 4.8 m, so we have ...

  percent change = (4.2 -4.8)/4.8 × 100% = -.6/4.8×100% = -12.5%

The carpenter made the track 12.5% too short.
