To answer this item, we let x be the number of 2-point shot made by Pietro. With this representation, the number of 3-point shots made was 0.5x + 2. Adding the two expression is supposed to give us 20. Then, the answer would be,
                                        x + (0.5x + 2) = 20
The value of x is 12. Therefore, Pietro made 12 2-point shots and 8 3-point shots.

The standard tip in a restaurant is 15% of the bill before tax. Many people in California find the tip by doubling the sales tax
cricket20 [7]
To answer this you could do a couple things. 1. Actually calculate both tips and then subtract them. Here is the math ( assuming it is $60, not 60% that you mean). a. 0.15 x 60 = $9. b. 0.0825 x 2 x 60=$9.90. c. 9.90-9.00= $0.90 difference.

The other strategy would be to find the difference on the percents and then multiply by $60. a. 8.25%x2=16.5%-15%. Difference of 1.5%. b. 0.015 x $60=$0.90.

The figure the Floor Plan of a balcony ,it consists of △ABC and semi-circle ,
ivanzaharov [21]

Step-by-step explanation:

(a) In right triangle ABC,

AC^2 =AB^2 +BC^2  \\  =  {12}^{2} +  {5}^{2}   \\  = 144 + 25 \\  = 169 \\  AC =  \sqrt{169}  \\  \therefore \: AC =  13\: m \\  \\ AC \: is \: the \: diameter \: of \: semicircle \\  \therefore \: r =  \frac{1}{2} \times  AC = \frac{1}{2} \times 13 = 6.5 \: m \\  Circumference \:of \:semi-circle \\ C = \pi \: r = 3.14 \times 6.5 = 20.41 \:m\:

Perimeter of Balcony = 12 + 5 + 20.41 = 37.41 m

(b) Area of balcony

=\frac{1}{2}\times 12\times 5+\frac{1}{2} \pi r^2 \\\\=\times 6\times 5+\frac{1}{2} \times 3.14\times (6.5)^2 \\\\=30+\frac{1}{2} \times 3.14\times42.25\\\\= 30+\frac{1}{2} \times 132.665\\\\= 30 + 66.3325\\\\= 96.3325 \:m^2 \\\\\approx 96. 33\:m^2

Two triangles have the same heights. One triangle has a base length that is twice the base length of the other triangle. Are the
djyliett [7]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for area of a triangle is A = (1/2)bh,

For the first triangle we can leave it in general terms, so it's area is

A = (1/2)bh, depending on what b and h are, but it doesn't matter here...

The second triangle has base that is twice the other triangles base.  Bases being multiples of each other is the definition of being proportional so the bases are proportional, an the area of the second triangle is

A = (1/2)(2b)h,   which simplifies to

   A = bh

Comparing the 2 areas, you can see that one has a multiplier of (1/2), so their areas are proportional

An investor has an account with stock from two different companies. Last year, his stock in Company A was worth $1790 and his st
stiv31 [10]

Answer:

20.7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount of stock increased in Company A = 20% of 1790

           = 0.20 * 1790 = $ 358

Investor's stock in company A this year = 1790 + 358 = $ 2148

Amount of stock increased in Company B = 22% of 1000

           = 0.22 * 1000= $ 220

Investor's stock in company B this year = 1000 + 220 = $ 1220

Total amount in investor's stock account  = 2148 + 1220 = $ 3368

Increased amount = 3368 - 2790 = $ 578

Increase percentage = \frac{578}{2790}*100 = 20.71

                                   = 20.7%
