We need to find the percent, let's start but making the equation.

The price is 2.69

The tax cost is 0.13

So what percent of 2.69 is = 0.13.

Equation: X/100 x 2.69 = 0.13

Multiply each side by 100 so we can get x alone with the price: 2.69x = 13

Now to get x alone, we must divide both sides by 2.69: x = 4.8

Finally, we just round 4.8 to the nearest whole number, which is 5 (5 or above give it a shove, 4 or below let it go, we have 8 so we give it a shove). This means that the answer will be 5%.

I hope this helps! :)

Answer:

X= 78

Step-by-step explanation:

180-115=65 that's one of the angles

and the other one is 360-323=37

and add the two angles together  = 102

then finally 180-102=78 and that's it

A box of cereal states that there are 81 calories in a 7-cup serving. What is the unit rate for calories
mr_godi [17]

Answer:

23.142857143 calories or 23 1/7 calories

The unit rate is calories per cup

Step-by-step explanation:

7- cup serving = 81 calories

2 cups = x calories

Cross Multiply

2 cups × 81 calories = 7 cups × x

x = 2 cups × 81 calories/7 cups

x = 23.142857143 calories or 23 1/7 calories

Find the perimeter and the area of the figure. A right-angled trapezoid has a shorter base of 7 centimeters, longer base of 9.5
laila [671]

The given dimensions of 9.5, 6, 7, and 6.5 cm gives the following

perimeter and area of the trapezium.

  • Perimeter: <u>29 cm</u>
  • Area: <u>49.5 cm²</u>

<h3>How can the area and perimeter of the trapezium be found?</h3>

The perimeter of a trapezoid is given as follows;

Perimeter = The sum of the lengths of the sides

Which gives;

Perimeter = 6 + 7 + 6.5 + 9.5 = 29

The perimeter of the trapezoid =<u> 29 cm</u>

  • Perimeter: 29 cm

The area of the trapezoid is given as follows;

Area = \mathbf{ \dfrac{Sum \ of \ the \ parallel \ sides }{2} \times Height}

Which gives;

Area = \dfrac{7 + 9.5 }{2} \times 6 = 49.5

The area of the trapezoid = 49.5 cm²

  • Area:<u> 49.5 cm²</u>
