The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
$43.20
Explanation:
The formula we have is
c = p(1+r), where c is the total cost, p is the price of the item before tax, and r is the tax rate written as a decimal. This formula comes from the fact that adding a percent tax to the cost of an item takes 100% of the price and adds r% to it; this is why we multiply the price by (1+r).
Since our tax rate is 8%, r = 8% = 8/100 = 0.08. The price of the item is $40. Using this information, we have:
c = 40(1.08) = $43.20
Answer:
84
Step-by-step explanation:
Given a quadratic equation in standard form, ax² + bx + c = 0 : a ≠ 0
Then the discriminant is Δ = b² - 4ac
2k² = 10k - 2 ( subtract 10k - 2 from both sides )
2k² - 10k + 2 = 0 ← in standard form
with a = 2, b = - 10 and c = 2, thus
b² - 4ac = (- 10)² - (4 × 2 × 2) = 100 - 16 = 84
I think it is 640.. What they mean is every inch equals 4 feet so you would multiply 8*4 and 5*4 then you get 32 and 20.. im sure you know area but just incase its base times height so 32*20=640
Answer: $358.8 to the nearest tenth
Step-by-step explanation:
Compound interest is calculated by Where: A = P(1 + r)t
Where P= 300, r= 12% = 0.12, t= 1.5 years
Slot in the figures
300 (1 + 0.12) 1.5
300 (1.12) 1.5
300x 1.12
336e1.12
A = $ 358.84
