Answer:

For this case we can make the following rule of three:

25% ----------------> 2 $

100% --------------> x

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

Therefore, the value of the Taco that Andrea bought, before the tip, is $ 8.

the price of Andrea's tacos, before tip is $ 8.

If x varies jointly as y and z, and x = 8 when y = 4 and z = 9, find z when x = 16 and y = 6. 3
Ghella [55]

Answer:

Joint variation says that:

if x \propto y and x \propto z

then the equation is in the form of:

x = kyz, where, k is the constant of variation.

As per the statement:

If x varies jointly as y and z

then by definition we have;

x=k(yz)           ......[1]

Solve for k;  

when x = 8 , y=4 and z=9

then

Substitute these in [1] we have;

8=k(4 \cdot 9)

⇒8 = 36k

Divide both sides by 36 we have;

\frac{8}{3}=k

Simplify:

k = \frac{2}{9}

⇒x = \frac{2}{9}yz

to find z when x = 16 and y = 6

Substitute these value we have;

16 = \frac{2}{9} \cdot 6 \cdot z

⇒16 = \frac{12}{9}z

Multiply both sides by 9 we have;

144 = 12z

Divide both sides by 12 we have;

12 = z

or

z = 12

Therefore, the value of z is, 12

which shape had a larger area: a rectangle that is 7 inches by 3/4 inch, or a square with side length of 2.5 inches? Show your r
Brums [2.3K]
In order to find the area for a rectangle, you must multiply length times width, which would be 7 x 3/4 which is 5.25. In order to find the area for a square, you do length^2, also know as length x length. Which would be 2.5^2 which is 2.5 x 2.5 which is 6.25. 6.25 is larger than 5.25, so the square has a larger area.

a computer shop charges 20 pesos per hour (or a fraction of an hour) for the first two hours and additional 10 pesos per hour fo
Serhud [2]

Answer:

The equation for the price, as a function of time in hours is:

P(x) = 20*x    for 0 ≤ x ≤ 2

P(x) = 40 + 10*(x - 2)  for  2 ≤ x

Now, we want to evaluate this function in 40 mins.

we know that 1 hour = 60mins.

Then 40 mins = (40/60) hours = 0.67 hours.

Then we input this in our function, and because this is smaller than 2, we use the first piece of our function:

P(0.67) = 20*0.67 = 13.4

So in 40 mins, the charge will be 13.4 pesos.

CALC 1: Spud's mom is going to make him a round birthday cake, and has asked for your help. Spud is a bit weird, and has already
Ratling [72]

Answer:

15.7 in  

Step-by-step explanation:

A slice of a round pie is a sector of a circle.

The perimeter of a slice is the arc length s plus twice the radius r.

P = s + 2r

s = rθ = r(16/360) = r/22.5. So,

16 = (r/22.5) + 2r = (r + 45r)/22.5 = 46r/22.5

16 × 22.5 = 46r

360 = 46r

r = 7.826  

D = 2r = 2 × 7.826 = 15.7 in

The diameter of the cake should be 15.7 in.

Check:

\begin{array}{rcl}P & = & s + 2r\\& = & \dfrac{r}{22.5} + 2r\\\\16 & = & \dfrac{7.826}{22.5} + 2 \times 7.826\\\\16 & = & 0.35 + 15.65\\16 & = & 16.00\\\end{array}

It checks.
