Answer:

<h2>30%</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

monthly earnings= $3680

22% of the earnings is

=22/100*3680

=0.22*3680

=$809.6

Jose's take home will be

3680-809.6

=$2870.4

Step two:

Required

percentage spent on rent and clothing

but the total cost of rent and clothing is

=775+86.12

=$861.12

percentage of rent and cloth is

=(861.12/2870.4)*100

=0.3*100

=30%

<em><u>The percentage is 30% of the take home</u></em>

Answer: 30%

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, we find 22% of $3680. This will be:

= 22% × $3680

= 0.22 × $3680

= $809.60

Therefore, his take home pay will be:

= $3680 - $809.60

= $2870.40

We are further told that last month he spent $775 for rent and 86.12 on clothing. The amount combined will be:

= $775 + $86.12

= $861.12

The percent of his take-home pay did he spend on rent and clothing combined will be:

= 861.12 / 2870. 40 × 100

= 30%

Fatima saved $15,000 toward a down payment on a house. She makes $5,375 a month. What is the maximum loan she can take on a hous
Fittoniya [83]

We will use \frac{28}{36} ratio to determine how much can Fatima afford as a loan for her house.

Let gross income of Fatima = $ x

Amount earned by Fatima monthly= $ 5,375

36 % of 5,375=

     \frac{36}{100}\times 5,375=1935$

Maximum amount that can be paid as a loan monthly = $ 1935

Total money that she can pay yearly for house loan if Fatima allowable money for paying loans is $ 1935=

       1935 \times 12=23220$

Money saved as a down payment = $ 15,000

So, maximum amount loan Fatima can take on a house= 23220 + 15000=$38,220

She is not allowed for loan for house if the cost of house is any of the four options.

(B) 28 % of $ 5375=

   \frac{28}{100}\times 5,375=1505$

Maximum amount that Fatima spend on her house monthly= $ 1505

Amount that fatima can spend yearly on her house = 1505× 12 =$18,060

For the four options given , none of the option matches Fatima's expectations.

PLEASE HELP!! ASAP!!! 20 POINTS. David proved the Law of Cosines with reference to triangle abc using a different method.Arrange
sleet_krkn [62]

Answer:

Top-to-bottom, the boxes have this order in the proof: 1, 7, 4, 3, 9, 8, 5, 2, 6.

Step-by-step explanation:

The basic idea is to use the Pythagorean theorem to write two expressions for the length of altitude BD, also called "k", then equate them and simplify the result. This leaves an expression for DC, also called "x", which is replaced by a cosine expression to complete the proof.

Finally, the variations involving other combinations of sides and angles are suggested as being provable in the same way.

Ethan and Leo start riding their bikes at the opposite ends of a 65-mile bike path. After Ethan has ridden 1.5 hours and Leo has
Ksenya-84 [330]

let Leo's speed = x mile/hr

so Ethan speed = (x + 6) miles per hour

Distance = Speed × Time

so distance traveled by Leo in 2 hours = x × 2 = 2x

and distance traveled by Ethan in 1.5 hours = 1.5( x + 6 ) = 1.5x + 9

since  they meet on the path , After Ethan has ridden 1.5 hours and Leo has ridden 2 hours , so together the have traveled on complete path that is 65 miles.

⇒  distance traveled by leo in 2 hours + distance traveled by Ethan in 1.5 hours = 65

⇒  2x + 1.5x + 9 = 65

⇒ 3.5x = 56

⇒ x = 16

Hence Leo's speed = x miles/hr = 16 miles/hour

and Ethan's speed = (x + 6) miles/hr = 16 +6 = 22 mile/hour
