Antoine and Tess have a disagreement over how to compute a 15% gratuity on $46.00. Tess says, “It is easy to find 10% of 46 by moving the decimal point one place to the left to get $4.60. Do that twice. Then add the two amounts to get $4.60 + $4.60 = $9.20 for the 15% gratuity.”
Tess is correct about figuring 10% but he added 2 of them together which is like adding 10% +10% which is 20% not 15%.
he should have taken 1/2 of the 4.60 for 5% since 5 is half of 10
half of 4.60 = 2.30
then add that to the 4.60
4.60 +2.30 = 6.90 is 15%
Answer:Tess 20%

What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is 8y−5x=118y−5x=11?
Answer:
The slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is [tex]8y-5x=11[/tex] is [tex]m=-\frac{8}{5}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Given : Equation [tex]8y-5x=11[/tex]
To find : What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is given?
Solution :
First we find the slope of the given line,
The general slope form of line is [tex]y=mx+b[/tex] where m is the slope of the line and b is the y-intercept.
Re-write the given equation into general form,
[tex]8y-5x=11[/tex]
Take 5x to another side,
[tex]8y=5x+11[/tex]
Divide both side by 8,
[tex]y=\frac{5}{8}x+\frac{11}{8}[/tex]
On comparing with general form,
The slope of the line is [tex]m=\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
We know,
When two line are perpendicular one slope is negative reciprocal of another.
If the slope of line is [tex]m=\frac{5}{8}[/tex]
Then the slope of perpendicular line on this line is [tex]m=-\frac{8}{5}[/tex]
Therefore, The slope of a line that is perpendicular to the line whose equation is [tex]8y-5x=11[/tex] is [tex]m=-\frac{8}{5}[/tex]

Question 4(Multiple Choice Worth 5 points)
(05.03 MC)A graph is shown below:
A graph is shown. The values on the x axis are 0, 3, 6, 9, 12, and 15. The values on the y axis are 0, 9, 18, 27, 36, and 45. Points are shown on ordered pairs 0, 36 and 3, 27 and 6, 18 and 9, 9 and 12, 0. These points are connected by a line
What is the equation of the line in slope-intercept form?
y = 36x − 3
y = −3x + 36
y = −3x + 12
y = −12x + 3
Answer:
y = -3x + 36
Step-by-step explanation:
first let's start with a formula.
y = mx + b
m equals the slope and b equals the y intercept.
slope can also be indetified as a rate of change.
so, looking at the graph we can see that the y intercept is (0, 36) or 36 and the rate of change is 3 subtracted.

Mr. Rifkin had 240 digital and manual cameras. After donating 82 digital cameras and 26 manual cameras, he had 3 times as many digital cameras as manual cameras left. How many digital cameras did he have first?
Mr. Rif-kin initially had 181 digital cameras.
Let's denote:
- [tex]\( x \)[/tex] as the initial number of digital cameras.
- [tex]\( y \)[/tex] as the initial number of manual cameras.
According to the given information:
1. Mr. Rif-kin had a total of 240 digital and manual cameras initially:
[tex]\[ x + y = 240 \][/tex]
2. After donating 82 digital cameras and 26 manual cameras, he had 3 times as many digital cameras as manual cameras left:
[tex]\[ (x - 82) = 3(y - 26) \][/tex]
We can set up a system of equations with these two equations and solve for [tex]\( x \)[/tex] and [tex]\( y \)[/tex].
1. From Equation 1:
[tex]\[ y = 240 - x \][/tex]
2. Substituting [tex]\( y \)[/tex] from Equation 1 into Equation 2:
[tex]$\begin{aligned} & x-82=3((240-x)-26) \\ & x-82=3(214-x) \\ & x-82=642-3 x \\ & 4 x=724 \\ & x=181\end{aligned}$[/tex]
Now that we have found [tex]\( x \)[/tex], we can find [tex]\( y \)[/tex] using Equation 1:
[tex]$\begin{aligned} & y=240-x \\ & y=240-181 \\ & y=59\end{aligned}$[/tex]
So, Mr. Rif-kin initially had [tex]\( 181 \)[/tex] digital cameras and [tex]\( 59 \)[/tex] manual cameras.
The complete question is here:
Mr. Rif-kin had 240 digital and manual cameras. After donating 82 digital cameras and 26 manual cameras, he had 3 times as many digital cameras as manual cameras left. How many digital cameras did he have at first?

The average annual salary of the employees of a company in the year 2005 was $80,000. It increased by the same factor each year and in 2006, the average annual salary was $88,000. Let f(x) represent the average annual salary, in thousand dollars, after x years since 2005. Which of the following best represents the relationship between x and f(x)?
f(x) = 88(0.88)x
f(x) = 88(1.1)x
f(x) = 80(0.88)x
f(x) = 80(1.1)x
Answer: [tex]f(x) = 80 ( 1.1 ) ^x[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the function that shows the average annual salary after x years since 2005 is,
[tex]f(x) = ab^x[/tex] ----- (1)
Where a and b are any unknown numbers.
For x = 0,
[tex]f(0) = ab^0= a[/tex]
But According to the question,
The average annual salary of the employees of a company in the year 2005 was $80,000.
Therefore, f(0)=80000 dollars.
⇒ a = 80000
From equation (1),
[tex]f(x) = 80000 b^x[/tex] ------- (2)
Now again according to the question,
In 2006, the average annual salary was $88,000
But the average annual salary in 2006 is [tex]f(1) = 80000 b^1[/tex]
⇒ [tex] 80000 b^1=88000[/tex]
⇒ b = 1.1
Putting the value of b in equation (2),
The average annual salary after x years since 2005 is,
[tex]f(x) = 80000 (1.1)^x[/tex] dollars
Or [tex]f(x) = 80 (1.1)^x[/tex] thousand dollars
Thus, Fourth Option is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:
Walter had 2/4 yard of string. He used 3/6 of it on a school project. How much string did he use?
2/4 reduces to 1/2
3/6 reduces to 1/2
so he used 1/2 of 1/2 yard
1/2 * 1/2 = 1/4
he used 1/4 yard

According to the chart, from 1976-1986, unintentional drug overdose deaths per 100,000 population stayed relatively stable. The numbers for each year are, roughly, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2. What is the mean of these statistics?
Answer: 1.09
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that according to a chart from 1976-1986, unintentional drug overdose deaths per 100,000 population stayed relatively stable.
The numbers for each year are, roughly, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 1, 2.
We know that mean =[tex]\frac{\text{sum of all data values}}{\text{number of data values}}[/tex]
[tex]\\\Rightarrow\text{Mean}=\frac{1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+1+2}{11}\\=\frac{12}{11}=1.09[/tex]
Thus the means of these statistics= 1.09

which statement is always true about an isosceles triangle A.it has 1 right angle B.it has 2 congruent angles C.it has no sides that are congruent D.the sum of all 3 angles in 360 degrees
It has 2 congruent angles, is always true about an isosceles triangle
What is Isosceles Triangle?
A triangle with two equal sides is said to be isosceles. Also equal are the two angles that face the two equal sides. In other terms, an isosceles triangle is a triangle with two sides that are the same length.
Angles of Isosceles Triangle:Contrary to the equal sides, two of the isosceles triangle's three angles have equal measures. One of the angles is therefore not equal. Assume that if we are given the measure of an unequal angle, we can quickly determine the other two angles using the angle sum property.
Properties of Isosceles Triangle:Since this triangle's two sides are equal, the base of the triangle is the side that is not equal.
The triangle's two equal sides' opposing angles are always equal.
The vertex (topmost point) of an isosceles triangle is where the altitude of the triangle is calculated.
The third angle of a right isosceles triangle is 90 degrees.
Hence, the answer (b) it has 2 congruent angles

John read the first 114 pages of a novel, which was 3 pages less than 1/3 of the novel. Write an equation to determine the total number of pages (p) in the novel. And find the total number of pages in the novel
Answer:
351
Step-by-step explanation:
If we add 3 pages to 114, we get a number that is [tex]\frac{1}{3}[/tex] the total number of pages in the novel (p). Thus, we can write:
[tex]114+3=\frac{1}{3}p[/tex]
Solving for p gives us the total number of pages in the novel. So:
[tex]114+3=\frac{1}{3}p\\117=\frac{1}{3}p\\p=\frac{117}{\frac{1}{3}}\\p=117*3=351[/tex]
Thus, total number of pages in the novel is 351.

The longest straight line that can be drawn to connect two point on the circumference of a circle whose radius is 9 inches is
Answer:
18 inches.
Step-by-step explanation:
We can connect two points of a circle in many ways, as you can see in the picture below.
The longest straight line that you can draw to connect two points is the diameter, that is, the straight line that passes through the center of the circle.
If the circle has 9 inches of radius the diameter will be 9+9 = 18 inches.
