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.

Letter B bc if you do the actual math it comes to be 4.79 so mentally you would give a 4.80 tip

Answer:

x = 6

<u><em>Sorry if this answer is not correct, if it is or is not, please tell me in the comments!</em></u>

Step-by-step explanation:

All of the angles add up to 180 degrees (since it is a triangle), so

(11x - 3) + (7x + 5) + (13x - 8) = 180

Then, combine the like terms.

31x - 6 = 180

Now, out goal is to separate the x from everything. To do that, we need to add 6 to 180.

31x = 186

Then divide by 31.

x = 6

(Feel free to replace x with 6 back in the previous equation to double check it!)

What is the value of x in the figure?<br><br> Enter your answer in the box
Tcecarenko [31]

Answer:

x =68

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that x+22 = 90 because the sum of the two angles is a vertical angle to the right angle and vertical angles are equal.


x+22 =90

Subtract 22 from each side

x+22-22 = 90-22

x =68

Does anyone know this? Also, can you explain how you get the answer? cuz I have 10 other questions same as this.
Nezavi [6.7K]
The answer is 36

Multiply each side by 9

9 times for and 9 times n/9

The n/9 will cancel out so you are left with n= 9 times 4

This comes to 36

If the perimeter of a rectangle is 38 cm and the area is 78 square cm, then what are the dimensions of the rectangle?
nexus9112 [7]
The length is 13 and the width is 6. The way I figured it out is: find two factors of the area (that if multiplied with each other, they equal the area) and see which ones add up and then get multiplied by two to find the perimeter. I found 6 and 13 and then added them together to get 19. Then I multiplied 19 by two and got 38. This is how I have always done it idk.

Your answer is length = 13 and width = 6.
hope this helps :)
