Answer:
y = 16.
Step-by-step explanation:
The ratio of corresponding sides of similar triangles are the same.
The small and large triangles are similar ( - that is corresponding angles are congruent).
So 2/(2+8) = x / 20
2/10 = x/20
10x = 40
x = 4.
Therefore y = 20 -4 = 16.
First we have to find 25% of 900 pounds (i hope that's the right currency). so 900 x .25 = 225
so we subtract 225 from 900 and get 675 pounds.
to find sales tax we have to find 6% of 675, so 675 x .06 = 40.50
675 + 40.50 = 715.5 pounds
Answer:
D) 8
Step-by-step explanation:
You multiply 10 by 12 to get 120 so you multiply x by 12 to get 96.
96 = 12x
/12 /12
8 = x
30/16=15/8...............
