<span><span>If Mike saves 20% of every paycheck and his paycheck last week was $1500, you can calculate how much money Mike saved from that paycheck using the following steps:
20% * 1500 = 20/100 * 1500 = 20 * 15 = $300
</span><span>
Result: Mike saved $300 from his last paycheck.

no because if you simplify 0.248 to the nearest hundredth it turns into 0.25 therefore it will be less than 0.29
Answer:
x = 70°
Step-by-step explanation:
The relevant relations are ...
- base angles of an isosceles triangle are congruent
- consecutive interior angles where parallel lines meet a transversal are supplementary
__
Triangle OBQ is isosceles, so angle OQB = 40°. Triangle OPQ is isosceles, so angle OQP is x. The sum of angles OQB and OQP is angle BQP, which is supplementary to angle OPQ. That is, ...
(40° +x) +x = 180°
2x = 140° . . . . . . subtract 40°
x = 70° . . . . . . divide by 2
_____
There are many ways to find x. The one shown here is just one of them. In general, right triangles, isosceles triangles, symmetry, inscribed angles can all be used to write relations involving the known angles and x.
Answer:
The similarities are
1) Two triangles are similar when they meet either the (Angle Angle) AA, (Side Side Side) SSS or (Side Angle Side) SAS criteria
2) When two triangles meet either of the above similarity criteria they automatically meet the other similarity criteria
3) The ratio of their equivalent sides are equal such that when ΔABC is similar to ΔDCE we have;
AB/DC = AC/DE = BC/CE
The observed differences are
1) Triangles that meet the SAS and SSS Similarity Theorem criteria can be said to be congruent, that is they have both the same side sizes and angle sizes while triangles that meet only the AA Similarity Postulate criteria may or may not be congruent
2) The number of possible triangles formed by the SAS or SSS Similarity Theorem criteria is only one while the number of possible triangles formed by the AA Similarity Postulate criteria is infinite
3) A triangle that meets either the SAS or SSS Similarity Theorem criteria also meets the AA Similarity Postulate criteria
4) A triangle that meets either the AA Similarity Postulate criteria does not necessarily meet the AA Similarity Postulate criteria.
Step-by-step explanation:
The similarity postulates are;
The Angle Angle Similarity Postulate also known as AA
The Side Side Side Similarity Theorem also known as SSS
The Side Angle Side Similarity Theorem also known as SAS
