vin 5 7 liters
Then 5x = 56, and x = 56/5 liters (of vinegar)
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
the angles of a triangle add up to180.
70 plus 30 plus x = 180

x=80
Tom and Martin worked <u>9 hours</u> this week.
These are their hourly wages:
Tom: $2.15
Martin: $2.50
This means that:
Tom earned 9 x $2.15 in wages, which is equal to $19.35.
Martin earned 9 x $2.50 in wages, which is equal to $22.50.
--------------------
Now, we've been told that Tom and Martin sold $360 worth
of meals but we were not told how much they received in tips.
For all intents and purposes, let's say that they received $n
in tips. 15% of $n in tips would be less than 20% of $n
in tips. Now, Martin is already going to be receiving a higher
wage, and the fact that he is going to be receiving 20% of
$n in tips compounds the logical conclusion that at the end
of the week, he'd be leaving work with more money than Tom.
Answer:
Martin made more money than Tom.
The price of ticket last year is $ 1231.65
<em><u>Solution:</u></em>
Given that,
This year, Sophia paid $1,071 for season tickets to her favorite baseball team , which is 15% cheaper than last year
To find: Price of season ticket last year
Let the price of season ticket last year be "x"
Therefore, according to question
Price of ticket this year is 15 % cheaper than price of ticket last year
1071 = price of ticket last year - 15 % of 1071
1071 = x - 15 % of 1071
Solve the above expression for "x"
Thus price of ticket last year is $ 1231.65
