Answer:

23%

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate the percentage loss as shown

percent loss = \frac{loss}{originalprice} × 100%

loss = 14.88 - 11.45 = 3.43, hence

percent loss = \frac{3.43}{14.88} × 100% = 23%

C and ​ ∠D ​ are vertical angles with m∠C=−x+26 and m∠D=2x−10 . What is m∠D ? Enter your answer in the box. ​ °
ANEK [815]
Angle c and angle d are congruent. Congruent means they have the same the measure, or they have EQUAL measures. You set the two values equal to each other and solve for x.
X+26=2x-10 subtract x from both sides
26=x-10 add 10 to both sides
36=x

Now substitute x back in for angle d.
2(36)-10 = 62

Assume that y varies inversely with x. if y = 16 when x = 1/2, find y when x=32​
MissTica

y varies inversely with x.

Example:

If we multiply x by 2 we need to divide y by 2 too.

So,

If y = 16 and x = 1/2, find y when x = 32

Lets see, from 1/2 to 32 e need to multiply 1/2 by 64, right? So let's divide 16 by 64.

16/64 = 8/32 = 4/16 = 2/8 = 1/4

So we can say that:

If y = 16 when x = 1/2, y = 1/4 when x = 32.
