Find 20% first
20% of 84 is 16.8

tax is 7% of 84 which is 5.88

total

84+16.8+5.88=$106.68

Which of the following pairs of numbers contains like fractions? A. 5⁄6 and 10⁄12 B. 3⁄2 and 2⁄3 C. 3 1⁄2 and 4 4⁄4 D. 6⁄7 and 1

ElenaW [278]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answers are:

A.

$\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{10}{12}$

D.

$\frac{6}{7}$ and $1\frac{5}{7}$

<h2>Why?</h2>

To find which of the following pairs of numbers contains like fractions, we must remember that like fractions are the fractions that share the same denominator.

We are given two fractions that are like fractions. Those fractions are:

Option A.

$\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{10}{12}$

We have that:

$\frac{10}{12}=\frac{5}{6}$

So, we have that the pairs of numbers

$\frac{5}{6}$

and

$\frac{5}{6}$

Share the same denominator, which is equal to 6, so, the pairs of numbers contains like fractions.

Option D.

$\frac{6}{7}$ and $1\frac{5}{7}$

We have that:

$1\frac{5}{7}=1+\frac{5}{7}=\frac{7+5}{7}=\frac{12}{7}$

So, we have that the pair of numbers

$\frac{6}{7}$

and

$\frac{12}{7}$

Share the same denominator, which is equal to 7, so, the pairs of numbers constains like fractions.

Also, we have that the other given options are not like fractions since both pairs of numbers do not share the same denominator.

The other options are:

$\frac{3}{2},\frac{2}{3}$

and

$3\frac{1}{2},4\frac{4}{4}$

We can see that both pairs of numbers do not share the same denominator so, they do not contain like fractions.

Hence, the answers are:

A.

$\frac{5}{6}$ and $\frac{10}{12}$

D.

$\frac{6}{7}$ and $1\frac{5}{7}$

A cargo plane flew from the US across the Atlantic at 212 mph, and flew back to the US at 232 mph. Given that the first trip too

expeople1 [14]

The return trip was 21.2 hours long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Speed of plane from US = 212 mph

Speed of plane on return trip = 232 mph

Let,

x be the time taken on return trip.

Time taken from US = x+2

We know that;

Distance = Speed * Time

Distance of plane from US = 212(x+2) = 212x+424

Distance on return trip = 232x

As the distance will be same, therefore,

$232x=212x+424\\232x-212x=424\\20x=424$

Dividing both sides by 20

$\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{424}{20}\\x=12.2\ hours$

The return trip was 21.2 hours long.

Greg evaluated his spending and found that he was spending about $50 more per month on utilities than he has budgeted. He can tr

Oliga [24]

The percent of his monthly income that will be budgeted for the utilities will be approximately 5.21%.

According to the question,

We have the following information:

Greg evaluated his spending and found that he was spending about $50 more per month on utilities than he has budgeted. He can transfer money from other categories to increase his utilities budget to $125 per month. If his total monthly income is $2,400.

Now, let's take the percent to be x.

We have the following expression:

2400*x/100 = 125

24x = 125

x = 125/24

x = 5.21%

Hence, the percent of his monthly income that will be budgeted for the utilities will be approximately 5.21%.

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to the given line and that passes through the given point.

poizon [28]

Answer: y=-3x+29

Step-by-step explanation:

First put in y-intercept form to find the slope

$4x-12y=2\\-12y=-4x+2\\y=\frac{1}{3} x-\frac{1}{6}$

Slope of the 1st equation is 1/3- the slope of the line perpendicular is the opposite reciprocal, so in the case it is -3

Use the point and the new slope to write the new equation in point slope format

$y-y_{1} =m(x-x_{1} )\\y-(-1)=-3(x-10)\\y+1=-3x+30\\y=-3x+29$
