Since the tip is 15% of some cost x, we can calculate that.
Remember to write the percent as a decimal for the calculations
Think of the tip as the question 2.40 is 15% of what number?

2.40/x = 15/100
Multiply both sides by x
2.40 = 15x/100
2.40 = 0.15x

So the tip 2.40 = 0.15x
Divide both sides 0.15 to solve for x
And that makes the cost before the tip 2.40/0.15 = 16.00
$16.00
The total bill for his lunch would be the cost before the tip plus the tip

We can calculate the final bill as $16.00 + $2.40 = $18.40

What is the perimeter of the entire football field including the end zone
Dmitry [639]

Answer:

346 2/3 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

A football field is 100 yards long with each end zone being 10 years long, meaning the total length is 120 yards.

The width is 53 1/3 yards.

The perimeter is all the sides added, and a rectangle's, the shape of the field's, formula is p = 2l + 2w.

So if we plug it in and add it all up:

120 + 120 + 53 1/3 + 53 1/3

Perimeter = 346 2/3

PLZ HELP ASAP The numbers of motor vehicle fatalities in the United States for the years 2010 and 2011 are listed in the table b
Nonamiya [84]
To find which measure of variability is greater and which average number of monthly fatalities is higher, you will need to calculate the mean and the mean absolute deviation for both years

The mean will tell us which is generally higher, and the mean absolute deviation will tell us which has a greater variability.

The correct answer is D.

Please see the attached picture for the work.

What if this function simplified?
almond37 [142]

Hi!

Let's first expand the cotangent of theta.

You'll probably know that tangent will be "y/x", or \frac{sin(x)}{cos(x)}, and cotangent is the reciprocal of this, meaning that it is "x/y" or \frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}.

That means that we are now given this equation.

cos(x)\frac{cos(x)}{sin(x)}+sin(x)

That'll multiply to:

\frac{cos^2(x)}{sin(x)}+sin(x)

We'll want a common denominator to add by multiplying sin(x) to both top and bottom of the second term:

\frac{cos^2(x)}{sin(x)}+\frac{sin^2(x)}{sin(x)}

\frac{cos^2(x)+sin^2(x)}{sin(x)}

Pythagorean Identity states that sin^2(x)+cos^2(x)=1, so substitute that in:

\frac{1}{sin(x)}

Which simplifies to:

csc(x)

Hope this helps!
