First number = X
second number = x +26 ( exceeds means higher so add 26)
x + x+26 = 58
combine like terms:
2x + 26 = 58
subtract 26 from each side:
2x = 58-26
2x = 32
divide both sides by 2:
x = 32/2
x = 16
first number is 16
second number = 16+26 = 42
First, find how much he paid by tire.
To do so, divide what he paid by how many tires he bought like this :
240$ / 12 = 20$ per tire
Then, calculate how much he sells each tire.
To do so, start by calculating how much he paid for 3 tires:
20$ x 3 = 60$
This is the price he sells 2 tires for, therefore :
60$ / 2 = 30$
he sells his tires 30$ each.
Finally, you have to calculate the profit he made by selling 12.
We already know how much it cost, so you need to find how much money he gets selling them :
12 tires x 30$ = 360$
To find the profit, take off the amount he paid from the amount he made :
360$ - 240$ = 120$
There you go!
The Supplemental Security Income (SSI) program, administered by the Social Security Administration (SSA), is the income source of last resort for thelow-income aged, blind, and disabled. As the nation's largest income-assistance program, it paid $38 billion in benefits in calendar year 2006 to roughly 7 million recipients per month. BecauseSSI is means tested, administering the program often requires month-to-month, recipient-by-recipient benefit recomputations. An increase in a recipient's income usually triggers a benefit recomputation. Or, an increase in the recipient's financial assets, which may render the recipient ineligible, would also prompt a recomputation. With this crush of ongoing recomputations, it is of little wonder that administrative simplification is a time-honored mantra for program administrators.
Answer:
AC = 2.44
Step-by-step explanation:
Reference angle = 26°
Opposite side = AC = ?
Adjacent side = BC = 5
Applying TOA, we have:
Tan 26 = opp/adj
Tan 26 = AC/5
multiply both sides by 5
Tan 26 × 5 = AC
AC = 2.44 (nearest hundredth)
