A clothing store donated a percent of every sale to charity. The total sales were $8850, so the store donated $531 what percent of $8850 was donated to charity?

Step-by-step explanation:

I=?

P= $4500

R=8%=0.08

T=1 year

8%*0.01= 0.08

I=(4500)(0.08)(1)

(4500)(0.08)=360

360*1=360

The interest after one year is $360

Answer:

[tex]x=\frac{7}{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]5x-\frac{1}{5} =\frac{7}{3}[/tex]

[tex]5x - \frac{3}{15} = \frac{35}{15}[/tex]

[tex]5x - \frac{3}{15} + \frac{3}{15} = \frac{35}{15} + \frac{3}{15}[/tex]

[tex]5x=\frac{35}{15}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5x}{5} } =\frac{\frac{35}{15}}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x=\frac{7}{15}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

See attachment for illustration

(a) Right triangle

The sum of [tex]angles[/tex] in a [tex]right[/tex] [tex]triangle[/tex]is:

[tex]x + y + 90 = 180[/tex]

Subtract 90 from bot sides

[tex]x + y = 90[/tex]

Make x the subject

[tex]x = 90 - y[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = 90 - x[/tex]

This implies that, subtract the known angle from 90 to get the unknown angle.

Assume [tex]x = 40[/tex]

We make use of: [tex]y = 90 - x[/tex]

[tex]y = 90 - 40 = 50[/tex]

(b) Isosceles triangle

The sum of angles in an isosceles triangle is:

[tex]x + y + y = 180[/tex] ---- y appear twice because the base angles are equal

[tex]x + 2y = 180[/tex]

Make x the subject

[tex]x = 180 - 2y[/tex]

Make y the subject

[tex]y = \frac{180 - x}{2}[/tex]

Assume [tex]x = 40[/tex], we make use of:

[tex]y = \frac{180 - x}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{180 - 40}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = \frac{140}{2}[/tex]

[tex]y = 70[/tex]

Assume [tex]y = 70[/tex], we make use of:

[tex]x = 180 - 2y[/tex]

[tex]x = 180 - 2 * 70[/tex]

[tex]x = 180 - 140[/tex]

[tex]x = 40[/tex]
