Tom is spending more on tax totaling 23.54
while his cousin is only spending 18.72
How to get tax with percent take base price ex:22+ 7%
transform percent into a decimal : .07
now multiply the decimal times base price : 22x0.07
tax is a $1.54 now add that to your base price 22
and you get your total $23.54
Answer:
45 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the length of the longer leg. Then the hypotenuse is x+8 and the shorter leg is x-17. The Pythagorean theorem gives the relation between these values as ...
(x +8)^2 = x^2 +(x -17)^2
x^2 +16x +64 = 2x^2 -34x +289 . . . . eliminate parentheses
0 = x^2 -50x +225 . . . . . put in standard form
0 = (x -45)(x -5) . . . . . . . . factor
Solutions to this equation are x=5 and x=45. The value of x must be greater than 17, so the useful solution is x=45.
The length of the longer leg of the triangle is 45 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this we need to use Pythagorean theorem
Answer: x≈6.4
Answer:
<em>9.3 + b = 14.5</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
We are learning about perimeter.
Look for the formula of the perimeter,
P = a + b + c
The question states "The longest side is twice that of the shortest side."
A is the longest side while b is the shortest side.
The shortest side equation would be found below :
6.2 = 2c
c = 3.1
Making a completion of the longest side :
14.5 = 6.2 + 3.1 + b
14.5 + 9.3 + b
