Answer:

$11.50

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the 15% tip, let’s break it up into simple pieces.

We know that 15 is 10 + 5.

First, find 10% of 10, which is simply 1. (You move the decimal point over one time)

5% of 10 is half of what 10% of ten is. Therefore, 5% of ten is 0.5.

Now, we add all the numbers together (10+1+0.5) and you get 11.5.

If you jut want the tip, don’t add ten to your equation.

A merchant sold a pen for $6.90 ,thereby making a profit of 15% on her cost calculate the cost of the pen to the merchant to the

NeTakaya

So you know the merchant made a 15% profit on the pen, so she bought it for a cheaper price. To find the cost of the pen before you have to take the price now, $6.90 and times it by 85%. You do 85% because you subtract the 15% she saved from 100% and you get 85%. So 6.90x.85= 5.865 which rounds to $5.87

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

3 trips

max amount of riders/total riders

72/24 = 3

The length of the hypotenuse of a 30-60 -90 triangle is 14 units. what is the length of the short leg

kifflom [539]

Recall that the short leg is the side opposite the 30 degrees angle. And the ratio of the short leg to the hypotenuse is 1:2.

Let the length of the short leg be x, then,

$\cfrac{x}{14}=\cfrac{1}{2}\\ \\\Rightarrow2x=14\\ \\\Rightarrow x=\cfrac{14}{2}=7$

Solve for N, <br><br> −2p + 6n = 5

topjm [15]

Answer:

$n=\frac{1}{3}p+\frac{5}{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, you are solving for n.

Solve:

−2p + 6n = 5

We have to get "n" by itself, so add 2p to both sides.

6n = 2p + 5

Since the variable "n" has a number next to it, we have to get rid of that number in order to get our answer.

To do so, we would divide both sides by 6.

$n=\frac{2}{6}p+\frac{5}{6}$

Simplify the equation further.

$n=\frac{1}{3}p+\frac{5}{6}$
