0.04(30h) is the part of the expression that represents the amount of tax she must pay. This part shows that 0.04 (4%) is the tax rate, 30 is the amount of money needed to pay per hour (h). Taxes are a percentage of the actual price added on to the actual price, so that means that 30h is the actual price, 30 dollars an hour, and 0.04(30h0 are the taxes she has to pay.
The answer is 38 degrees because for every triangle, the angles add up to 180 and the small square on the triangle represents it is a right triangle, which has 90 degrees. 38 + 52 + 90 = 180
You mean (x-8)/3 = 3 ...right?
You would multiply both sides by 3.
Then, add 8 to both sides.
x=17
