The first raise was a 25% increase, while the second raise was a 32% increase so there was a 7% increase from the first raise to the second one.
well, 6.2% of 4,300 can't be over half. she has made a calculation error, and the real answer is (this is where the mistake was made) 4,300 * 0.062 (not 6.2, because percents are always divided by 100 to make them into a usable number), which is equal to $266.60.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Theorem
The measure of an exterior angle of a triangle equals the sum of measures of the remote interior angles.
Angle STV is an exterior angle of triangle SRT.
The two remote interior angles to exterior angle STV are angles S and R.
Since the triangle is isosceles, with sides ST and TR equal, angles S and R are equal, so they both measure 27 deg.
<STV = 27 + 27
<STV = 54
Two angles are said to be linear if they are adjacent angles formed by two intersecting lines. The measure of a straight angle is 180 degrees, so a linear pair of angles must add up to 180 degrees.
