Answer:

A is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

Marshall bought some pet supplies for $15

The sales tax was 6%

Expression: 1.06(15)

Cost of pet = $15

Sale tax = 6% of 15

= 0.06×15

Total cost after sale tax = 15 + 0.06×15

Take out 15 common = (1+0.06)15

The given expression is equivalent to (1+0.06)15

1.06(15) = (1+0.06)15

Using (1+0.06)15 to find total cost.

A man is on a diet and goes into a shop to buy some turkey slices. He is given 3 slices which together weigh 1/3 of a pound, but

Ghella [55]

The three slices are each approximately 1/9 pound in weight, and, since 2/9 is less than 1/4, he can eat 2 whole slices and be okay. If he wants to eat partial slices, then he could eat 2 1/4 slices, as each slice weighs 4/36 pounds, so 2 slices would equal 8/36 pounds, leaving 1/36 pound left over in his diet, which is a quarter of the third slice.

Find the length of the base of a square pyramid if the volume is 128 cubic inches and has a height of 6 inches

Len [333]

Answer: a = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a square based pyramid is given as

$\frac{a^{2}h }{3}$ .

where a is the length of the side and h is the height.

Substituting into the formula , we have

V = $\frac{a^{2}h }{3}$

128 = $a^{2}h$ /3

384= $a^{2}$ X 6

Divide through by 6

384/6 = $a^{2}$

64 = $a^{2}$

Therefore :

a = $\sqrt{\frac{64}{1} }$

a = 8

What is the force of gravity (in Newtons) acting between the Earth and a 100-kg person who is on board the International Space S

ratelena [41]

Answer:

$f_{G}=317877.55 N = 317.8 kN$

Step-by-step explanation:

$f_{G}= (G*m_{1}*m_{2})/r^{2} \\Where:\\f_{G}= force of gravity\\G=gravitational constant= 6.6x10^{-11}m^{3}kg^{-1}s^{-2}\\ m_{1}= earth mass = 5.9x10^{24}kg\\m_{2}=person mass = 100kg\\r= distance between the bodies=350km= 350 000 m$
