The total amount of her purchase before tax was added is; $52.46

<h3>How to calculate discounted amount?</h3>

We are told that the percentage sales tax she paid on her purchase was 8.75% which translated to an amount of $4.59.

Now, let the amount of her purchase be x. Thus;

8.75% * x = $4.59

x = 4.59 * 100/8.75

x ≈ $52.46

The diagram shows the cross-section of a wall of a cinema.
Anna71 [15]

Answer:

  • 280 m²
  • £133

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of the wall is the sum of the areas of the different sections of the wall. The cost to paint it will be the product of the cost of a tin of paint and the number of tins required.

__

Here, the shape of the wall can be divided into two trapezoids and a rectangle. Each shape has a corresponding area formula. Left-to-right, their areas are ...

<u>Left Trapezoid</u>

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

  A = 1/2(10 m +11 m)(4 m) = 42 m²

<u>Middle Rectangle</u>

  A = LW

  A = (13 m)(11 m) = 143 m²

<u>Right Trapezoid</u>

  A = 1/2(b1 +b2)h

  A = 1/2(11 m +8 m)(10 m) = 95 m²

<u>Wall Area</u>

The total area to be painted is the sum of the above areas:

  total area = 42 m² +143 m² +95 m² = 280 m²

The area that needs to be painted is 280 m².

__

A tin of paint covers 15 m², so the number of tins needed is ...

  (15 m²)t = 280 m²

  t = 280/15 = 18 2/3 . . . . . . divide by the coefficient of t

We can only buy whole tins, so we need to buy 19 tins. Their cost will be ...

  (£7 /tin)(19 tins) = £133

It will cost £133 to paint the wall.

The general manager, marketing director, and 3 other employees of Company A are hosting a visit by the vice president and 2 othe
yawa3891 [41]

Solution :

Let the three places be 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8

a). Number of the cases when a general manager is the next to a vice president is equal to 7 and the these 2 can be arranged in 21 ways. So the total number of ways = 7 x 2

                  = 14

[(1,2)(2,1) (2,3)(3,2) (3,4)(4,3) (4,5)(5,4) (5,6)(6,5) (6,7)(7,8) (8,7)(7,6)]

Therefore the required probability is

  $=\frac{14}{8!}$

 = $\frac{14}{40320} = 0.000347$

b). The probability that the marketing director to be placed in the leftmost position is

   $=\frac{7!}{8!}$

  $=\frac{1}{8} = 0.125$

c). The two events are not independent because

   $P(A \cap B) \neq P(A) \times P(B)$

  $\frac{12}{8!} \neq \frac{14}{8!} \times \frac{1}{8}$

where A is the case a and B is the case b.
