3 x 4 = 12

12/12 - 1/3 ( so 4/12) = 8/12

8/12 - 1/4 ( so 2/12 as you only have 8/12 left) = 6/12

Answer = 6/12 = 1/2 or 50%

The answers are:<br> 1.73 miles<br> 2.65 miles<br> 3.16 miles<br> 4.58 miles<br> Thanks!

kkurt [141]

Answer:

4.58 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

The Pythagorean theorem is used to answer such questions. It tells you the relation between the side lengths is ...

AC² = AB² +BC²

In miles, ...

5² = AB² + 2² . . . . . . . fill in the given numbers

25 -4 = AB² . . . . . . . . subtract 2²

√21 = AB ≈ 4.58 . . . . . take the square root

The distance in miles from A to B is about 4.58.

$H - 2 = 2 * (B -2)$

Required

H and B

We have:

$H - 2 = 2 * (B -2)$

Open bracket

$H -2 =2B - 4$

Add 2 to both sides

$H -2+2 =2B - 4+2$

$H =2B -2$

Substitute $H = B + 7$

$B + 7 =2B -2$

Collect like terms

$2B - B =7+2$

$B = 9$

Substitute $B = 9$ in $H = B + 7$

$H = B + 7$

$H = 9 + 7$

$H = 16$

When a student sold an Xbox on eBay for $145, she was charged a two-part final value fee: 5.25% of the first $25 of the selling

Contact [7]

Selling Price = $145

Charge on first $25 is 5.25%
5.25% of $25 = $\frac{5.25}{100}*25= \frac{5.25}{4} = 1.3125$

Charge on rest is 3.25%
rest amount = $145 - $25 = $120
3.25% of $120 = $\frac{3.25}{100}*120=3.9$

$Total\ charge=1.3125+3.9=5.2125 =\boxed{5.21}$
