Answer:

a : b = 25 : 9

Step-by-step explanation:

(3a - 5b) : (3a + 5b) = 1 : 4

Product of extremes = product  of  means

(3a - 5b) *4 = (3a +5b) * 1    {Distributive property}

3a * 4  - 5b*4 = 3a + 5b

12a - 20b = 3a + 5b

Add 20b to both sides

12a = 3a + 5b + 20b

12a = 3a + 25b

Subtract 3a from both sides

12a - 3a = 25b

9a = 25b

\dfrac{a}{b}=\dfrac{25}{9}

a:b = 25 : 9

lawyer [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we start off by rounding that number to the nearest ten, not tenTH. This rounding would lead to 180$. Now comes the percent part. Here i use the percent equation, which is ____ is ____% of _____. our percent is 10%, and our whole goes at the end, 180$. The part( or the tax), becomes x, and now we translate. Is means = and of means times. so x=.10(180), and x will equal 18

so the tip will be around 18 dollars

hope it helped
