<em>Answer: </em>
<em>$1,200</em>
<em>Step-by-step explanation: </em>
<em>78 divided by 6.5=12</em>
<em>With percents you have to multiply to get out of 100 so:</em>
<em>12x100=1,200</em>
<em>78 divided by 6.5%=1,200</em>

Answer:
$1200
Step-by-step explanation:
$1200
Step-by-step explanation:
78 = 6.5%
This means that if you divide 78 by 6.5, you get the equivalent of 1% of the price:
78 ÷ 6.5 = 12
So 1% = 12
Now simply multiply this by 100 to get the full answer:
12 x 100 = 1200
So the camera cost $1200!

Answer:
$160/5
Step-by-step explanation:
160/5 would be 32 and 315/9 would be 35. 32 is less than 35 so $160/5 would be the better deal.
We have the formula (sin x)^2 + (cos x)^2 = 1;
Then, sin α =
cos β =
We apply the formula sin ( α + β ) = sin α x cos β + sin β x cos α = (3/5)x(4/5) + (4/5)x(3/5) = 12/25 + 12/25 = 24/25;
