After the tax and the tip are counted, we conclude that each friend must pay $30.

We know that the meal cost is $72.50.

Now, there is a 6.75% sales tax and a 15% tip on the waiter (we assume that the tip is based on the total meal cost, after the tax is applied).

Then the total meal cost is:

C = $72.50*( 1 + 6.75%/100%) = $72.50*(1 + 0.0675) = $77.39

Now we also need to add the tip, which is a 15% of that, so the total cost with the tip included is:

C' = $77.39*(1 + 15%/100%) = $88.998 = $90

(Where we rounded up).

Then, if there are 3 friends, each one must pay:

$90/3 = $30

Each friend must pay $30.

The line segment which represents 2 7/16 inches should first be drawn with the use of a ruler.

This is referred to an instrument which is used to measure distances between points or draw straight lines and also usually graduated in inches.

On the inches graduation, the zero mark should be located and the 1/16 inch which is found before the half-inch mark between 2 and 3 inches. When this is done, a line should be drawn to meet both points which will therefore measure 2 7/16 inches long.

Presumably you mean the equation

[tex]\dfrac{13z}{z+1} = 11-3i[/tex]

Observe that for [tex]z\neq-1[/tex],

[tex]\dfrac{13z}{z+1} = \dfrac{13(z+1) - 13}{z+1} = 13 - \dfrac{13}{z+1}[/tex]

so we can simplify the equation to

[tex]13 - \dfrac{13}{z+1} = 11 - 3i \implies \dfrac{13}{z+1} = 13 - (11 - 3i) = 2+3i[/tex]

Multiply both sides by [tex]\frac{z+1}{2+3i}[/tex].

[tex]\dfrac{13}{z+1}=2+3i \implies \dfrac{13}{2+3i} = z+1 \implies z = \dfrac{13}{2+3i} - 1[/tex]

Rationalize the denominator by introducing its complex conjugate.

[tex]z = \dfrac{13(2-3i)}{(2+3i)(2-3i)} - 1 = \dfrac{26-39i}{2^2+3^2} - 1 = \boxed{1 - 3i}[/tex]

The solution of the inequality by method of interval is x = [5,∝) and x = [-2,0]∪[8,-∝).

The first inequality is (x² - 25)/(x + 10) ≥ 0

⇒ x² - 25 ≥ 0

⇒ x² ≥ 25

∴ x ≥ 5

Thus the domain of the given inequality from method of interval is x = [5,∝).

The second inequality is (x + 2)(x² - 64)/(x² + 45) ≤ 0

⇒ (x + 2)(x² - 64)≤ 0

Either (x + 2)≤ 0 or (x² - 64)≤ 0

Either x ≤ -2 or x ≤ 8

Thus , the combined domain of the given inequality from method of interval is x = [-2,0]∪[8,-∝) .

The value of the car after 5 years is 8527.02 dollars

Depreciation is the reduction in the value of an asset over time due to elements such as wear and tear. For example a car is said to "depreciate" in value after a discovery of a faulty transmission.

The value after 5 years can be found as follows:

Rate = 18% = 18 / 100 = 0.18

Initial Value  = $23,000

time = 5 years

Therefore,

y = 23000(1 + 18%)⁵

y = 23000(1 - 0.18)⁵

y = 23000(0.82)⁵

y = 23000 × 0.3707398432

y = 8527.0163936

y = 8527.02 dollars

Answer:

119°

Step-by-step explanation:

the angles of a triangle make 180° (so does a straight line) therefore

180 (triangle) = a + c + 51

to find c:

180 (straight line) = 112 + c

c = 180 - 112

c = 68°

now we have

180 (triangle) = a + 68 + 51

to find a:

a = 180 - (68 + 51)

a = 180 - 119

a = 61°

to find b:

180 (straight line) = 61 + b

b = 180 - 61

b = 119°

The length of the line segment SR is 15 units.

In Δ SRQ as seen in the attached image, we see that;

∠SRQ is a right angle

SQ is the hypotenuse

RT ⊥ SQ

Thus, by triangular rules, we know that;

(RQ)² = TQ × SQ

RQ = 20 units and TQ = 16 units

Thus;

(20)² = 16 × SQ

400 = 16 × SQ

SQ = 400/16

SQ = 25 units

By using Pythagoras theorem in Δ SRQ, we have;

(SR)² + (RQ)² = (SQ)²

RQ = 20 units and SQ = 25 units

Thus;

(SR)² + (20)² = (25)²

(SR)² + 400 = 625

(SR)² = 225

SR = √225

SR = 15 units
