You want to leave a 15% tip on a meal that cost $15.77.
First, convert the 15% to an actual number that can be used in a calculation. For percents,this is always done by simply dividing the percent (in this case 15%) by 100%.So, the conversational term "15%" becomes 15% / 100% = 0.15 in terms of a real mathematical number.
Second, you need to find out what 15% of your $15.77 meal cost is.This is always done by multiplying 0.15 by $15.77, or

0.15 x $15.77=$2.37.
So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $2.37.

This makes the total cost of your meal (to write on your charge slip or other payment)

$15.77 + $2.37 = $18.14

$18.14 is your answer

The perimeter of a rectangle is 24 centimeters.Its length is 9 centimeters. Find the width
liberstina [14]

Subtract 9 twice.

24-9-9 = 6

Half of 6 is 3, so 3 is the width since adding it twice and adding the length twice gives perimeter.

ycow [4]

Answer:

11 bushels of apples were sold

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x---->  bushels of peaches

y---->  bushels of apples

we know that

7x+6y=346 -----> equation A

x=y+29 -----> equation B

substitute equation B in equation A and solve for y

7(y+29)+6y=346

7y+203+6y=346

13y=346-203

13y=143

y=143/13=11

Write an equation of a line in slope intercept form that is perpendicular to the line 2x -3y = 12 and passes through the point (
Scilla [17]

Answer:

The equation of the line would be y = -3/2x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, start by finding the slope of the original line. You can do this by solving for y.

2x - 3y = 12

-3y = -2x + 12

y = 2/3x - 4

Now that we have a slope of 2/3, we know that the perpendicular slope is -3/2 (since perpendicular lines have opposite and reciprocal slopes). We can use this and the new point in point-slope form to find the equation.

y - y1 = m(x - x1)

y - 6 = -3/2(x - 2)

y - 6 = -3/2x + 3

y = -3/2x + 9
