total cost = c

c =0.40(4) + 0.60(6)

c = 1.60 + 3.60

total cost = 5.20

The sales tax in Mansfield is 8.25% on anything purchased. What is the percent of the original price you will pay? Write your an

Fynjy0 [20]

If the tax was 10%, then you’d end up paying the original 100% plus the additional 10% tax, so you’d pay 110% of the original price.

In your example, it’s the same, except you have 8.25% tax, so you’d pay 100%+8,25% or 108.25% of the original price.
That’s stated as a percent.

To convert a percent to a decimal, you divide by 100:
108.25 ÷ 100 = 1.0825

To convert a decimal to a fraction, you have to know the place value of the smallest place. In this case, the 5 is in the ten thousandths place.
10825/10000

You can always double check that fraction on a calculator.

You have 42 ft. of fencing (1 ft. segments) to make a rectangular garden. How much should each side be to maximize your total ar

Verizon [17]

Answer:

$Length=10.5\ ft$

$Width=10.5\ ft$

$Area=110.25\ ft^{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x----> the length of the rectangular garden

y---> the width of the rectangular garden

we know that

The perimeter of the rectangle is equal to

$P=2(x+y)$

we have

$P=42\ ft$

so

$42=2(x+y)$

simplify

$21=(x+y)$

$y=21-x$ ------> equation A

Remember that the area of rectangle is equal to

$A=xy$ ----> equation B

substitute equation A in equation B

$A=x(21-x)$

$A=21x-x^{2}$ ----> this is a vertical parabola open downward

The vertex is a maximum

The y-coordinate of the vertex is the maximum area

The x-coordinate of the vertex is the length side of the rectangle that maximize the area

using a graphing tool

The vertex is the point $(10.5,110.25)$

see the attached figure

so

$x=10.5\ ft$

Find the value of y

$y=21-10.5=10.5\ ft$

The garden is a square

the area is equal to

$A=(10.5)(10.5)=110.25\ ft^{2}$ ----> is equal to the y-coordinate of the vertex is correct
