Answer:
x = 60, y = 25
Step-by-step explanation:
Δ ABC has 3 congruent sides and is equiangular, thus
the 3 angles are congruent, all 60°
x = 60
∠ ABC and ∠ CBD are adjacent and supplementary, sum to 180° , then
∠ CBD = 180° - 60° = 120°, so
y = 180 - (120 + 35) = 180 - 155 ← sum of angles in triangle
y = 25
The correct answer is C) (5m^50 - 11n^8) (5m^50 + 11n^8)
We can tell this because of the rule regarding factoring the difference of two perfect squares. When we have two squares being multiplied, we can use the following rule.
a^2 - b^2 = (a - b)(a + b)
In this case, or first term is 25m^100. So we can solve that by setting it equal to a^2.
a^2 = 25m^100 -----> take the square root of both sides
a = 5m^50
Then we can do the same for the b term.
b^2 = 121n^16 ----->take the square root of both sides
b = 11n^8
Now we can use both in the equation already given
(a - b)(a + b)
(5m^50 - 11n^16)(5m^50 + 11n^16)
Given:
Mr. Rodriguez : 6.25
Mrs. R 7.50
2 children @ 4.99 each <u> 9.98</u>
Subtotal: 23.73
Sales tax 7.25% 1.72 *23.73 x 7.25%
Total tip 15% <u> 3.56 </u> *23.73 x 15%
Grand total $29.01
Tips should be applied to pre-tax amount not post-tax. However, some companies compute tip based on post-tax amount. This means that the tip you are paying is computed based on the total amount of the meal as well as the sales tax you paid for the meal.
