Answer:
<em>Tiffany pays a total price of $9.81 for the basket of watermelons</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
To increase a certain amount by a given percentage, we can first calculate the increasing amount and then add it to the original amount.
If the price of the basket of watermelons was $9 before tax, and the sales tax is 9%, we first calculate the tax amount to pay:
$9 * 9 / 100 = $0.81
Now we add it to $9 to get the total price paid by Tiffany:
Total price = $9 + $0.81 = $9.81
Tiffany pays a total price of $9.81 for the basket of watermelons
Answer:
$86.55
Step-by-step explanation:
8.5% x 95 = 8.455
95 - 8.455 = 86.545 = $86.55
Answer:
3x-15=6
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
x = 13
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the 48° angle, we find out that the angle opposite of angle y° is also 48° according to the corresponding angles theorem. Then, you would subtract 48 from 180 to get the degrees of angle y, which would be 132°. Next, you need to subtract 132 from 180 to get the angle measure of the (5x - 17)° angle. (180 - 132 = 48) Once you have done that, all you have to do now is figure out what value of x makes it equal to the degree measure you found by subtracting 132 from 180. I tried it with x = 13, which came out as a correct answer. So x must be 13.
(5x - 17)°
(5(13) - 17)°
(65 - 17)°
(48)°
48°
The angle equals 48° and x equals 13.
Answer:
-8=x
Step-by-step explanation:
6x-6=9x+18
-6-18=9x-6x
-24=3x
x=-8
