Answer:

Hope this helps!

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer -Full amonut - $13.80. Tip amount - $1.80

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 $12 meal cost is. This is always done by multiplying 0.15 by $12.00, or

0.15 x $12.00=$1.80.

So, the amount of tip you are going to leave is $1.80. full amount - 13.80

From a radar station, the angle of elevation of an approaching airplane is 32.5 degree. The horizontal distance between the plan

denis23 [38]

Answer: 42.21 km

Step-by-step explanation:

We can solve this using trigonometry, since we have the following data:

$\theta=32.5\°$ is the the angle of elevation

$d=35.6 km$ is the horizontal distance between the plane and the radar station

$x$ is the hypotenuse of the right triangle formed between the radar station and the airplane

Now, the trigonometric function that will be used is <u>cosine</u>:

$cos\theta=\frac{d}{x}$ because $d$ is the adjacent side of the right triangle

$cos(32.5\°)=\frac{35.6 km}{x}$

Finding $x$ :

$x=\frac{35.6 km}{cos(32.5\°)}$

$x=42.21 km$

A trapezoid has a base of two and six and an area of 24 square units. What is the height?

Nezavi [6.7K]

$\bf \textit{area of a trapezoid}\\\\ A=\cfrac{h(a+b)}{2}~~ \begin{cases} a,b=&\stackrel{bases}{parallel}\\ &sides\\ h=&height\\ \cline{1-2} a=&2\\ b=&6\\ A=&24 \end{cases}\implies 24=\cfrac{h(2+6)}{2}\implies 24=\cfrac{h(8)}{2} \\\\\\ 24=4h\implies \cfrac{24}{4}=h\implies 6=h$
