The whole bill is $31.99 that is 100%. You can use mental math to determine exatcly 15% from $31.99:
1. 15%=10%+5%
2. To find 10% from $31.99 you should simply divide $31.99 by ten. Thus, 10% from $31.99 is $3.199.
3. 5% is half of 10%, then 5% from $31.99 is $3.199:2=$1.5995.
4. 15% from $31.99 is $3.199+$1.5995=$4.7985≈$4.80.
Answer: correct choice is B.
Answer:
angle BED and angle DEB are the answers.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
You have two unknown rates, so we need to develop two equations to solve for these unknowns (based on the information given on the problem statement):
5x + 10y = 725
x + y = 100
By substitution, we get:
5x + 10(100 - x) = 725
5x + 1000 - 10x = 725
-5x = 725 - 1000
-5x = -275
x = -275/-5 = 55
100 - 55 = 45
Thus:
The mechanic who worked for 5 hours charged his time at $55/hr, and the mechanic who worked for 10 hours charged his time at $45/hr.
To verify, plug and chug the results back into the original equations:
5(55) + 10(45) = 725
275 + 450 = 725
725 = 725 [OK]
55 + 45 = 100 [OK]
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
That '5' in f(5x) will compress the graph of x^2 horizontally.
If you were to graph f(x) = x^2, you'd get a parabolic graph; the parabola will open UP.
Suppose you graphed f(x) = x^2 on the interval [-4, 4].
Then the graph of g(x) = f(5x) would be graphed on the interval [-4/5, 4/5]. In other words, the graph would be on a shorter interval, one shorter by a factor of 5.
