The amount paid for the computer including sales tax is 0.918p

<h3>How to determine the amount paid?</h3>

The price paid is given as:

Price = p

A 15% off means that he pays 85%.

So, we have:

Amount = 85% * p = 0.85p

A sales tax of 8% means:

Total = 0.85p * (1 + 8%)

Evaluate the product

Total = 0.918p

Hence, the amount paid is 0.918p

Answer:

The interest rate of the account is 3\%

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that    

The compound interest formula is equal to  

A=P(1+\frac{r}{n})^{nt}  

where  

A is the Final Investment Value  

P is the Principal amount of money to be invested  

r is the rate of interest  in decimal

t is Number of Time Periods  

n is the number of times interest is compounded per year

in this problem we have  

t=14\ years\\ P=\$1,863\\ A=\$2,830.97\\n=4  

substitute in the formula above  and solve for r

\$2,830.97=\$1,863(1+\frac{r}{4})^{4*14}  

(2,830.97/1,863)=(1+\frac{r}{4})^{56}  

(2,830.97/1,863)^{1/56}=(1+\frac{r}{4})

[(2,830.97/1,863)^{1/56}-1]=\frac{r}{4}    

r=4*[(2,830.97/1,863)^{1/56}-1]\\ \\r= 0.03

Convert to percent

r= 0.03*100=3\%

Help please! the question is in the picture below for reference when answering! thank you so much!
stepan [7]

Answer:

x = -1

Step-by-step explanation:

AB + BC = AC = 28

the way from A to C goes through B.

so, the total way of A to C is the sum of the way from A to B and then from B to C.

=>

(5x + 10) + (2x + 25) = 28

7x + 35 = 28

7x = -7

x = -1

BCD= 120 degrees. explanation: the 4 angles of a parallelogram must equal 360 degrees. so you add all 4 angles & get 6x. you then take that 6 & divide it from 360 (360/6) and get 60. therefore x=60. so then you just multiple BCD (2x) by 60 and you get 120 degrees

There are 21 bags of pears on a market stall.
geniusboy [140]

Answer:

13 pears in the 21st bag

Step-by-step explanation:

mean = total number of pears/total number of bags

8 = x/21

x = 168

number of pears in 20 bags = (6 x 2) + (7 x 6) + (8 x 9) + (9 x 1) + (10 x 2)

= 155

number of pears in the 21st bag = 168 - 155

= 13
