Answer: 7.25%

Step-by-step explanation:

There are a few ways to do this, but the easiest might be to set up a proportion:

321.75/300 = x percent/100 percent

Now cross multiply;

300x = 321.75(100) = 32,175

Divide both sides by 300 to solve for x:

300x/300 = 32,175/300

x = 107.25 This means that the tip was 7.25% on top of the $300 meal.

Answer:

7.25 %

Step-by-step explanation:

The given in the question, after tip the total is $321.75. The original price of a meal is $300.

Calculation,

Step 1: (x/100) * 300 = 21.75

Step 2: Solve for x.

Step 3: 300x = 100 * 21.75

Step 4: x = (21.75 * 100) / 300

Step 5: x = 7.25%

Hence, the percent of tip that was applied for the meal is 7.25.

Zoologists are studying two newly discovered species of insects in a previously unexplored section of rain forest. They estimate
salantis [7]
The population Pa of insect A after t years is given by the equation 
     Pa = 1.3(1-0.038)^t 
while the population Pb of insect B after t years is 
     Pb = 2.1(1-0.046)^t

We equate the above expressions to find the number of years t it will take the two populations to be equal: 
     Pa = Pb
     1.3(1-0.038)^t  = 2.1(1-0.046)^t
     1.3(0.962)^t  = 2.1(0.954)^t
These are the equations that can be used to determine how long it will be before the populations of the two species are equal.

We can now solve for t:
     (0.962)^t / (0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
     (0.962/0.954)^t = 2.1/1.3
After taking the log of both sides of our equation, number of years t is
     t = log (2.1/1.3) / log (0.962/0.954)
     t = 57 years
Therefore, it will take 57 years for the population of insect A to equal the population of insect B.

Simplify cos(θ) − sec(θ) /<br> sin(θ)
Salsk061 [2.6K]
<span>Replace tan θ with sin θ/cos θ

= sin²θ/cos θ + cos θ

Now multiply the right-hand side by cos θ/cos θ to get the same denominator:

= sin²θ/cos θ + cos²θ/cos θ
= (sin²θ + cos²θ)/cos θ

The numerator is equivalent to 1:

= 1 / cos θ
= sec θ</span>
