Answer:

17/20

Step-by-step explanation:

85% can easily be written as 85/100 and this is true, but we have to simplify to the simplest form.

An easy way to simplify is to divide the numerator and denominator by the GCF (Greatest Common Factor)

The GCF of 85 and 100 is 5.

85 ÷ 5 = 17

100 ÷ 5 = 20

We can no longer simplify 17/20 because 17 is prime so your final answer is 17/20!

Find the value of the variables in the image above

Answer:

x = 8 $\sqrt{3}$ , y = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the sine and cosine ratios in the right triangle and the exact values

sin60° = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ , cos60° = $\frac{1}{2}$

sin60° = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{x}{16}$ = $\frac{\sqrt{3} }{2}$ ( cross- multiply )

2x = 16 $\sqrt{3}$ ( divide both sides by 2 )

x = 8 $\sqrt{3}$

----------------------------------------------------------

cos60° = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}$ = $\frac{y}{16}$ = $\frac{1}{2}$ ( cross- multiply )

2y = 16 ( divide both sides by 2 )

y = 8

Tom and jerry went out for dinner they ordered a nice meal and their bill was $300 they also paid 15% tax on thier bill what waa

All you need to do is multiply 300 by 1.15 to find what the total cost is.

300 • 1.15 is equal to 345. Now subtract, 345 - 300 = ?
