<h3>Answer: D) 3</h3>

Explanation:

Focus on the horizontal sides. The jump from 3 to 9 is "times 3".

If you focus on the vertical sides, the jump from 4 to 12 is also "times 3".

Lastly, the slanted sides has a jump from 5 to 15 which is also "times 3".

This all shows the scale factor is 3. The larger triangle on the right has its sides 3 times as long compared to the smaller triangle.

Your dinner bill comes to $19.68. Estimate your total cost for dinner with a 5% tax and a 20% tip on the original bill. Justify

barxatty [35]

Estimate:
Bill = $20 approximately.
5% tax on $20 = 20/20=$1
20 % on ($20) = $4
Total cost = $20+1+4 = $25
Total bill = $25 approximately.

Exact calculations
bill = 19.68
tax 5% = 0.98
Tip 20% of original = 3.94
Total bill = 19.68+0.98+3.94 = 24.60

A school has a goal of getting at least 2000 boxtops. They have 872 so far. They have 8 days left to get it. At least how many d

True [87]

Answer:

School needs to collect at least 144 box tops each day to meet their goal.

Step-by-step explanation:

The total requirement of box tops = 2,000

The number of box tops they have already received = 872

So, the box tops left = Total number required- Number of tops received

=2,000 - 872

= 1,128 box tops are left so far.

Number of days left = 8

So, number of minimum tops needed each day = $\frac{\textrm{Total tops required}}{\textrm{Number of days left}}$

= $\frac{1128}{8} = 141$

Hence, they need to collect at least 144 box tops each day to meet their goal.

yanalaym [24]

<span>The mean would typically be the best measure of determining the success of this business. Barring the presence of any outlier values, finding the average number of cameras sold per period (week, month, year, etc.) would give a better picture than the range or mode. The median could be used, but it is a bit less descriptive than the median in this instance.</span>
