Answer:
1a) t = 0.17b
1b) $36.03
2) 51,167.50
Step-by-step explanation:
1a) 17% converted to a decimal (divide by 100) = 0.17. Multiply that by the amount of the bill (before tipping) to get the amount of the tip
1b) The bill of $248 represents the entire bill (100%) plus the tip amount (17%) which makes 117%. As a decimal, this is 1.17.
To find what the cost was without the tip, divide the bill total by 1.17
248/1.17 = 211.97. That was the bill before the tip was added.
248-211.97 = 36.03 was the tip added.
2) 5.5% converted to a decimal is 0.055
0.55 x 48,500 = 2667.50
$2,667.50 + $48,500 = 51,167.50
Or, you can use what we did in 1b, and his new salary is 1.055 times 48,500
1.055 x 48,500 = 51,167.50
Play usually continues 7.Qf3+ Ke6 8.Nc3 (see diagram). Black will play 8...Nb4 or 8...Ne7 and follow up with c6, bolstering his pinned knight on d5. If Black plays 8...Nb4, White can force the b4 knight to abandon protection of the d5 knight with 9.a3?! Nxc2+ 10.Kd1 Nxa1 11.Nxd5, sacrificing a rook, but current analysis suggests that the alternatives 9.Qe4, 9.Bb3 and 9.O-O are stronger. White has a strong attack, but it has not been proven yet to be decisive.
Because defence is harder to play than attack in this variation when given short time limits, the Fried Liver is dangerous for Black in over-the-board play, if using a short time control. It is also especially effective against weaker players who may not be able to find the correct defences. Sometimes Black invites White to play the Fried Liver Attack in correspondence chess or in over-the-board games with longer time limits (or no time limit), as the relaxed pace affords Black a better opportunity to refute the White sacrifice.
Step-by-step explanation:
By the formula of slope, we have

Y=mx+b
m=slope
slopes of parallel lines are the same
y=3/4x+2
the slope is 3/4
the slope of a line parallel to that is 2/3
Answer:
(2,-1.5)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are 11 points in between the two points therefore it has to be (2,-1.5)
