The tax rate as a percent, r, charged on an item can be determined using the formula 100( – 1) = r, where c is the final cost of

the item and p is the price of the item before tax. Louise rewrites the equation to solve for the final cost of the item: c = p(1 + ). What is the final cost of a $40 item after an 8% tax is applied?

<span>The question is asking us to calculate the final cost of the item after the tax is applied. The price of item before the tax is: P = $40 and the tax rate as a percent is 8%. It means that r = 0.08. And the formula is: C = P * ( 1 + r ). Finally: C = $40 * ( 1 + 0.08 ) = $40 * 1.08 = $43.20. Answer: The final cost is $43.20. </span>

The circle is inscribed in Triangle AEC. Which are congruent line segments
Harlamova29_29 [7]

Answer:

E-F and E-D

C-B and C-D

Step-by-step explanation:

The circle and triangle are as shown.  The options are:

  • A-B and C-B
  • E-F and E-D
  • E-D and C-D
  • A-F and E-F
  • C-B and C-D

By drawing radius lines from the center of the circle to the tangent points B, D, and F, we can divide the triangle into 3 kites.  Therefore, only segments that are legs of the same kite are congruent.  So the answer must be E-F and E-D, and C-B and C-D.

I’ve been stuck can someone explain
MariettaO [177]

Answer:

Option (3)

Step-by-step explanation:

From the figure attached,

AB and CD are two chords intersecting at O.

m∠AOD = 37°

m∠AOC + m∠AOD = 180° [Since these angles are supplementary angles]

m∠AOC = 180° - 37°

              = 143°

By the theorem of intersecting chords,

Measure of angle formed is the half of the sum of measures of the arcs intercepted by the angle and vertical angle.

m∠AOC = \frac{1}{2}(\widehat{AC}+\widehat{BD})

143° = \frac{1}{2}[(x+5)+(x-5)]

143° = x

Therefore, Option (3) will be the answer.

Xavier, Yessie, and Zorro each choose a different favorite positive fraction. Each fraction is in simplest form. Yessie's fracti
ad-work [718]
Let Xavier's favourite fraction be a/b, Yessie's favourite fraction = b/a and Zorro's favourite fraction = c/d,

c/d x a/b = 12/35 . . . . . . . . (1)
c/d x b/a = 15/7 . . . . . . . . (2)

(1) x (2) = c/d x a/b x c/d x b/a = 12/35 x 15/7
 c^2 / d^2 = 36/49
c^2 = 36
c = 6
d^2 = 49
d = 7

Xaviers favourite fraction = 12/35 / 6/7 = 2/5
Yessies favourite fraction = 5/2
Zorro favourite fraction = 6/7
