Hello,
When you are looking for a ratio, it is simply a fraction.
In the numerator, we will put the amount of the increase which is 10.4 - 7.80 = 2.6.
In the denominator, we will put the original price of $7.80.
This gives us the ration of 2.6/7.8 or just 0.33 if we divide.
We can say there was a 33% increase (or one-third).
I hope this helps, Good luck!

The answer to the question is 10+22x
Answer: <em>x</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
For this equation, the variable <em>y</em> is dependent on the value of<em> x</em>. The value of <em>y</em> changes depending on the value of<em> x</em>. This means that <em>x</em> is the independent variable for this equation.
We have an isosceles triangle:
The length of the sides are:
side₁=side₂=x
side₃=(x+x)-3=2x-3
Perimeter of a triangle=is the sum of the all sides.
we have this equation:
x+x+(2x-3)=29
4x=29+3
4x=32
x=32/4
x=8
The length of the third triangle will be: 2x-3=2*8-3=16-3=13
Answer: The length of the longest side of the triangle would be 13 meters.
