Answer:

$2.24

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we are trying to find a percentage of something, we can multiply whatever we're trying to find a percentage from by 0.X where X is equal to the number of the percentage. So in this case it's 15%. We can multiply $14.90 by 0.15 and we get 2.23500. Since we cannot have 2.235 dollars, we must round up decimal places.

The tip would be 2 dollars and 24 cents. ($2.24).

Elliott has some yarn that she wants to use to make hats and scarves. Each hat uses 0.2, point, 2 kilograms of yarn and each sca
sp2606 [1]

Answer:

Elliot will make 4 hats and 16 scarves

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the number of hats and y be the number of scarves Elliot will make.

Elliott wants to make a total of 20 items, then

x + y = 20

Each hat uses 0.2 kilograms of yarn, so x hats use 0.2x kilograms of yarn and each scarf uses 0.1 kilogram of yarn, then y scarves use 0.1y kilograms of yarn. Elliott wants to use twice as much yarn for scarves as for hats, then

0.1y = 2(0.2x)

Thus,

0.1y = 0.4x

y = 4x

Substitute it into the first equation:

x + 4x = 20

5x = 20

x = 4

y = 20 - 4

y = 16

Hence, Elliot will make 4 hats and 16 scarves

100 POINTS!!! Orthographic projection and isometric projection are two ways to show three-dimensional objects in a two-dimension
shutvik [7]

Example 1:

The pros of Orthographic is that they can show hidden details and all of the connecting parts, they can be annotated to display material and finishes. The pros of Isometric projection is that they dont need many views and it gives accuracy, cons are is created a unorginized apperance by the lack of foreshortening, I would choose Isometric projection because it shows the size of the figure.

Example 2:

Orthographic projection is a good option for showing lots of detail and small things. The limitation is that with all of that detail, they can become quite messy and hard to understand to someone new to them. However, that is one of the pros of Isometric projection. It gives easy detail and is just as good as an Orthographic. Personally, I find Isometric projections easier to interpret.

 <span>Northwest is 45 degrees north of west. If a car travels a distance x miles northwest, its northerly component gains x/sqrt(2) miles and its easterly component LOSES xsqrt(2)/ miles. 

Resultant height is h = 4500 + 100x/sqrt(2) - 75x/sqrt(2) = [25/sqrt(2)]x + 4500
