SS tax is 6.2% of 1,047.30

In math "of" means times, so

.062 x 1047.30 = 64.9326

Rounded to the nearest cent $64.93

The two lines below intersect as shown What is the value of x?

Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

x = 6

Step-by-step explanation:

because we know the lines intersect we also know the 2 angles are vertical meaning they are equal to each other

Knowing the angles are equal to each other you can make the equation

2x + 29 = 9x - 13

then you solve for x in this equation

2x + 29 = 9x - 13

(subtract 2x from both sides)

29 = 7x - 13

(add 13 to both sides)

42 = 7x

(divide by 7 on both sides)

6 = x

x = 6

The length of a rectangle is twice its width. if the perimeter of the rectangle is 48 yd , find its area.

Katarina [22]

X = width
2x = length

2x + 4x = 48
6x = 48
x = 8
2x = 16

8*16 = 128

Your answer should be that the area is 128 square yards. Hope this helps!

Square A is a scaled version of square B. The dimensions of square A are three times the dimensions of square B. The area of squ

denis23 [38]

Answer:

The side of square A is 30 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The dimensions of square A are three times the dimensions of square B.

The area of square A is 900 sq cm.

Side of square A = 3( side of square B)

Let the side of square B is b. So,

Side of square A, a = 3b

We know that, the area of square is side². So,

$(3b)^2=900\\\\9b^2=900\\\\b^2=100\\\\b=10\ cm$

Side of square A, a = 3(10) = 30 cm

Hence, the side of square A is 30 cm.
