Answer:

The volume of paint that covers the whole car is 1\frac{1}{4} gallons or one and a quarter gallons.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the volume of paint required to cover whole car be 'x'.

Given:

Volume of paint to cover one-fifth of a car = one-fourth of a gallon.

We use unitary method to determine the volume of paint required.

∵ One-fifth of a car requires paint = \frac{1}{4}\ gal

∴ Whole volume of car requires paint = \frac{\frac{1}{4}}{\frac{1}{5}}

=\frac{1}{4}\times \frac{5}{1}\\=\frac{5}{4}\\=1\frac{1}{4}\ gal

Therefore, the volume of paint that covers the whole car is 1\frac{1}{4} gallons or one and a quarter gallons.

So, it's just an annoying problem. Keep the tax rates in mind for each thing.
$70 of souvenirs mean the tax is 5% since it is not prepared food, lodging, or auto rentals.
$580 on prepared food means that has 7% tax because it is special.
$620 on the car has a 10% tax, as stated in the problem.
So do 70(1.05)+580(1.07)+620(1.1) to get $1376.1.0

Sloan [31]

Answer:  3x^2y\sqrt[3]{y}\\\\

Work Shown:

\sqrt[3]{27x^{6}y^{4}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{3^3x^{3+3}y^{3+1}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{3^3x^{3}*x^{3}*y^{3}*y^{1}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{3^3x^{2*3}*y^{3}*y}\\\\\sqrt[3]{\left(3x^2y\right)^3*y}\\\\\sqrt[3]{\left(3x^2y\right)^3}*\sqrt[3]{y}\\\\3x^2y\sqrt[3]{y}\\\\

Explanation:

As the steps above show, the goal is to factor the expression under the root in terms of pulling out cubed terms. That way when we apply the cube root to them, the exponents cancel. We cannot factor the y term completely, so we have a bit of leftovers.
