<h3>Answer:    17.25 dollars</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

15% of 15 = 0.15*15 = 2.25

The cost has increased by $2.25 which means the cost per kilogram is now 15+2.25 = 17.25 dollars

------------

As a slight shortcut, we can multiply the old cost (15) by the multiplier 1.15 to get the same result:

1.15*15 = 17.25

This method allows us to chain together many percentage increases, and it also allows us to include percentage decreases as well. Note how 1.15 is basically the result of 100% + 15% = 1.00+0.15 = 1.15

Please help! determine the measure of the missing angles. show your work.
IrinaVladis [17]

Top triangle: if the know angle measures are 90 and 55 and there are a total of 180, 90 + 55 + a = 180. This means that angle a = 35°

Bottom triangle: if a is 35, the angle connected to it is 35 because they are vertical angles. The angles of this triangle are 35 + 120 + b = 180. Angle b = 25°

I dont know what I'm doing! could you help me​

Answer:

c = 24.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we can use the cosine rule

Generally, we have this as:

a^2 = b^2 + c^2 - 2bcCos A

12^2 = 14^2 + c^2 - 2(14)Cos 19

144 = 196 + c^2 - 26.5c

c^2 - 26.5c + 196-144 = 0

c^2 - 26.5c + 52 = 0

We can use the quadratic formula here

and that is;

{-(-26.5) ± √(-26.5)^2 -4(1)(52)}/2

(26.5 + 22.23)/2 or (26.5 - 22.23)/2

24.37 or 2.135

By approximation c = 24.34 will be correct
