18x.15=2.70
2.70+18=$20.70

First you want to change 15% to a decimal, 0.15 now you just multiply $18 by 0.15 and you will get 2.7 which is $2.70. The tip is $2.70

Please help with a math problem. Please explain how you got the answer

Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

Their sum is 140. The measure of an exterior angle is supplementary to the respective interior angle.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the angle are on a straight line, m2 and 140 sum to 180.

So m2=40. Because a triangle has 180 degrees, m1 and m3 must sum to 140.

The exterior angle is always on the same incline as the interior angle, so it is always supplementary to the interior angle.

The first part of a trip driving at 40 mph was 15 miles longer and took 30 minutes longer than the second part of the trip drivi

kenny6666 [7]

Answer:

65 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

There are two simultaneous equations . Remeber that v=d/t, 1hour = 60 minutes.

1. 40 = (d+15)/(t+0.5)

2. 50 = d/t

solving: d= 25 miles and t=0.5 hours.

The distance traveled is:

D=d+d+15

D=65 miles

A rectangular carpet has a perimeter of 244 inches. The length of the carpet is 90 inches more than the width. Determine the dim

RSB [31]

Answer:

The dimensions of rectangle are:

Width = 16 inches

Length = 106 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of rectangle = 244 inches

Let Width of rectangle = w

Length of rectangle = w+90

We need to find the dimensions (length and width) of the carpet

The formula used will be: $Perimeter=2(length+width)$

Putting values and making equation:

$244=2w+2(w+90)\\Solving:\\244=2w+2w+180\\244=4w+180\\Switching\:sides\\4w+180=244\\Subtracting\:180\:from\:both\:sides\\4w=244-180\\4w=64\\Dividing\:both\:sides\:by\:4\\\frac{4w}{4} =\frac{64}{4}\\w=16$

So, we get w = 16

The width w = 16 inches

Now, finding length = w+ 90 = 16+90 = 106 inches

Therefore the dimensions of rectangle are:

Width = 16 inches

Length = 106 inches

The sum of two numbers is six, and the difference is 10. Find the numbers.

pashok25 [27]

First no. = x
Second no. = y

Equation Formation
x + y = 6..........equation(i)
x - y = 10...........equation (ii)

x = 6 - y
6 - y - y = 10
6 - 2 y = 10
-2 y = 10 -6
-2 y = 4
y = -2

x = 6 + 2
x = 8

Answer = 8 , -2
