Mathematics

1 answer:

Jet001 [13]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

$13.77 per person in the family

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of the meal = $54.65

Sales tax rate = 8%

Sales tax amount = 8% of $54.65

= 8/100 × 54.65

= 0.08 × 54.65

= $4.372

Tip = 18% of $54.65

= 18/100 × 54.65

= 0.18 × 54.65

= $9.837

Total cost of the dinner = Cost of the meal + Sales tax amount + Tip

= $54.65 + $4.372 + $9.837

= $68.859

There are 5 people in the Holcombe family

What was the cost per person for the meal, including sales tax and tip?

cost per person for the meal, including sales tax and tip = Total cost of the dinner / total number of people in the family

= $68.859 / 5

= $13.7718

Approximately

$13.77 per person in the family

Find the measures of the complementary angles that satisfy each case. One of the angles is 3 times larger than the other.

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

22.5° and 67.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of complementary angles equal 90°.

Given that one of the complementary angles is 3 times larger than the other, let "x" represent the other angle.

Thus, the following expression can be written to represent this case:

$x + 3x = 90$

Solve for x

$4x = 90$

Divide both sides by 4

$\frac{4x}{4} = \frac{90}{4}$

$x = 22.5$

The measure of the complementary angles are:

x = 22.5°

3x = 3(22.5) = 67.5°
