Max's bill at a restaurant is $8.67. He uses the following method to figure out a tip of about 15%. Round the amount of the bill

to the nearest ten cents. Move the decimal point one place to the left. Then find half of the result. Add the last two answers and round to the nearest five cents. How much will the tip be for the bill? Why does Max's method work?

lisabon 2012 [21]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

first problem:

3 is a solution to x^2=9, so to a, b, c and d

second problem

-2 is a solution to:

a, b, c and d because (-2)^2=4, 4=4, b) 5*(-2)^2=5*4=20 and so on

basically to all choices

the third, solve the equations:

x^2=1, \sqrt{x^2}=\sqrt{1}, x=1

x^2=81 sqrtx^2=sqrt81, x=+and -9

4x^2=1 divide by 4 , x^2=1/4, x=+&- 1/2 (plus si minus 1/2, amindoua solutiile sint valabile)

3x^2=75, we divide by 3, we get x^2=25, x=+&-5

49x^2=121 , x=+and- 11/7

25x^2=225 divide by 25, x^2=9, x =+and - 3

36x^2=144 we divide by 36, we get x^2=4, x = +and- 2

x^2-0.25=0  x^2=0.25, x=+and - 1/2

2x^2-0.32=0 ,  2x^2=0.32, x^2=0.16 ( i divided by 2) , x=+and- 2/5

4x^2=0.04, divide by 4, x^2=0.01, x=+and - 0.1

3x^2=10.8, divide by 3, x^2=3.6, x=+and - 1,89

for the : determinati solutiile ecuatiilor

a) (x-1)^2=49, do the quadratic, you get x=8 and -6

due to the length of this page, i cant explain every step

b) (2x+1)^2=81, you get x= 4 and -5

c)(3x-1)^2=121, do the quadratic, x=- 10/3 and +4

d) 3(x-3)^2=48, we divide by 3 first , (x-3)^2=16,  we get x=7 and -1

e)5(x+2)^2=45 we divide by 5, (x+2)^2=9,  x=+1and -5

f) 7(2x-1)^2=175 we divide by 7 and we have (2x-1)^2=25 x=+3 and -2

Determine x belong to R

a) 1/9 x^2=16, we multiply 9*16=144, x^2=144, x=+and - 12

1/100x^2-1/64=0, or 1/100 x^2=1/64, x=+and - 5/4

1/25 x^2=0.49, x^2=0.49*25=12.25, x=+ and - 7/2

Janet makes the conjecture that line p is also parallel to line r . What must the value of y be for her conjecture to be correct
sweet [91]

Answer:

A. 6.75

Step-by-step explanation:

8x+18=4x+57

8x-4x=57-18

4x=39

4x+57=180-(8y+30)

39+57=180-8y-30

96=150-8y

8y=150-96

= 54

y= 54/8 = 6.75

Kate currently has an account balance of $7,194.66. She opened the account 21 years ago with a deposit of $2,978.41. If the inte
jolli1 [7]
Use the attached formula.
exp = [log (total / principal) / n*years]
where "n" is compounding periods per year
exp = [log (7,194.66 / 2,978.41) / (365*21)
exp = log ( <span> <span> <span> 2.4156042989 </span> </span> </span> ) / 7,665
exp = log ( <span> <span> 2.4156042989 </span> </span> ) / 7,665
exp = 0.38302579382 / 7,665
exp = <span> <span> <span> 0.00004997074935681670 </span> </span> </span>

rate = (10^exp -1)* n
rate = (10^<span>0.00004997074935681670 -1) * n
</span>rate = <span><span>(1.0001150685 </span> -1) * 365
</span>rate = <span>(.0001150685) * 365</span>
rate = <span> <span> <span> 0.0420000025 </span> </span> </span>
rate = <span>4.20000025 %
rate = 4.2 %

Yes, it's just that easy.  LOL

Write the equation of the line that passes through the points (-3,2) and (-1,6)
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

y=2x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

An equation that is most suitible for this kind of problem is the slope intercept form with is y=mx+b.

m=slope

b=y-intercept

1: Find the slope

Use the formula y2-21/x2-x1

6-2/-1-(-3)=4/2=2

m=2

2: Find the y-intercept

For me personally, I think it is easiest to just graph the points, draw the line, then find where the line meets the y-axis.

b=8

<u>y=2x+8</u>

<em>Hope this helped! Brainliest would be awesome :)</em>
