In 1945, the federal minimum wage was $0.40/h. In 2015, the federal minimum wage is $7.25/h. What is the percent increase?

1 answer:

3 0

You need to know the difference in change between .40 and 7.25, which is 6.85, then you divide the change in price by the original amount, so you do 6.85/.40, which is 17.125, then multiply by 100 to get percent and you get 1712.5% increase.

<u>Trigonometric Ratios</u>

The ratios of the sides of a right triangle are called trigonometric ratios. The longest side of a right triangle is called the hypotenuse and the other two sides are the legs.

The tangent ratio relates the opposite leg with the adjacent leg. Please note the given side is the opposite leg to 60° and x is the adjacent leg to 60°, thus we apply the tangent ratio:

$\displaystyle \tan\theta=\frac{\text{opposite leg}}{\text{adjacent leg}}$
