$24.30

If something is sold at a profit of 15%, we write that percentage as 0.15. When we’ve added that to the whole amount we got the percentage from, we wrote that as 1.15 (115%)

If x is the cost of the item
1.15x = 20.70
Divide both sides by 1.15
x = 18

If the item originally cost 18, and we want a 35% profit, that’s 135% of the cost, or 1.35 as a decimal
18 x 1.35 = $24.30

Answer:

24.3 i think

Step-by-step explanation:

x * 1.15=20.7

20.7/1.15=18

18 * 1.35=24.3

Find tan , sin , and seco, where 0 is the angle shown in the figure.
kicyunya [14]

Answer:

  • tan(θ) = 5/3
  • sin(θ) = 5√34/34
  • sec(θ) = √34/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypotenuse is given by the Pythagorean theorem:

  h = √(3² +5²) = √34

The trig functions are the ratios of sides:

  Tan = Opposite/Adjacent

  tan(θ) = 5/3

__

  Sin = Opposite/Hypotenuse

  sin(θ) = 5/√34 = (5/34)√34

__

  Sec = Hypotenuse/Adjacent

  sec(θ) = √34/3

shaq invested $350 in a savings account that earns 5% interest, compounded annually. How much interest will he earn in 2 years
fgiga [73]

Answer:

$25.39

Step-by-step explanation:

So if he has a 5% investment, then that means that every year he will get back 5% of the amount he invested.

So all one has to do is to find out 5% of the amount invested

Since it is asking for the amount earned in two years, then one will have to add back 5% twice

so 5% of 350

5% can be written as 0.05

so then the problem is

0.05 * 350

= 7.5

add that to the total amount and repeat the process

350 + 7.5

= 357.5

5% of 357.5

0.05 * 357.5

=17.885

because this is money one has to round to the second decimal point

= approx. 17.89

so now find the total amount earned by adding the two values

7.5 + 17.89

= 25.39
