To find the answer, you convert the percentage to a decimal. 140% = 1.4

Then you divide 56 by 1.4

56/1.4 = 40

Write an equation: "is" means =, and "of" means multiply 
56 = 1.4 N 

Divide both sides by 1.4: 
N = 56 ÷ 1.4 

N = 40

The bill for Dino's lunch was $19.45. He wanted to leave 20% of the total bill as a tip. How much should the tip be?​
Salsk061 [2.6K]

You could multiply 19.45 by 0.2 to solve for it, but if you're not using a calculator, then 19.45/5 would be much more convenient and easier.

0.2 is 1/5 in fraction form, which is why we can do that.

19.45/5 = 3.89

Dino should leave $3.89 as a tip.

Hi :) how to do question 7 ?
Gre4nikov [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We khow that the equation of a circle is written this way :

(x-a)²+(y-b)²=r² where (x,y) are the coordinates of the cercle's points and (a,b) the coordinates of the cercle's center and r the radius .

Our task is to khow the values of a and b :

  • We khow that the center is lying on the line 3x+2y=16⇒ 2y=-3x+16⇒ y= \frac{-3}{2}x+8  
  • We khow that the points P and Q are two points in the cercle
  • Let Ω be the center of this cercle
  • we can notice that : PΩ AND QΩ are both equal to the radius ⇒ PΩ=QΩ= r
  • So let's write the expression of this distance using vectors KHOWING THAT Ω(a,b)
  • Vector PΩ(a-4,b-6) and Vector QΩ(a-8,b-2)
  • PΩ=\sqrt{(a-4)^{2}+(b-6)^{2}  } and QΩ=\sqrt{(a-8)^{2}+(b-2)^{2}   }
  • Let's substitute a by x and b by y
  • PΩ=QΩ we substitute each distance by its expression
  • After simplyfying the expressions we get finally : -12+8x-8y=0
  • now we have -12x +8x-8y=0 and the line equation 3x+2y-16=0
  • these are simultanious equations so after solving them we get x=3.8 wich is approximatively 4 and y=2
  • we substitute a by 4 and y by 2 in PΩ to get the radius
  • we get r = \sqrt{(4-4)^{2}+(2-6)^{2}  } = 4
  • so r²= 16
  • then the equation is : (x-4)²+(y-2)²=16
