⓵ When I see fractions, I usually start by transforming my fraction into a decimal because I find it easier to work with :
5 ½ = 5 + (1 ÷ 2) = 5 + 0,5 = 5,5%
⓶ Then, once you got rid of that fraction, I usually transform a percentage into a decimal because, again, I find it easier to work with :
5,5% = 5,5 ÷ 100 = 0,055
⓷ The next step would be to add both prices together in order to get one unique price to work with instead of two :
$17,99 + $25,50 = $43,49
⓸ Next, you need to multiply the total price you calculated at #3 by the decimal of the pourcentage that you calculated at #2 in order to find the tax amount on his purchase :
5 ½% of $43,49
↓
5,5% of $43,49
↓
0,055 × $43,49 = 2,39195
Since we are calculating money, you need to round up this number at the hundredths, wich means that you’ll end up with about $2,39 of taxes on your total purchase!
⓹ The last and final step is to add the tax amount that you just calculated in #4 to the total price you calculated at #3 in order to find the total of his purchase including the 5 ½% taxes :
$43,49 + $2,39 = $45,88
If you wanted to be a tiny bit more precise, you could have decided not to round up the tax amount in #4 and just round up the final amount ↠
$43,49 + 2,39195 = 45,88195
Wich would, in this case, given you the same exact answer which is : $45,88
But it is important to keep in mind that sometimes the answer might vary if you round up only at the end, depends on your teacher’s exigences more than anything!
→ So the final answer is that his total purchase including a 5 ½% tax is : $45,88!
I really hope this helps, if there’s anything just let me know! ☻
Answer:
(D)144.8 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Given the equation which models the path of the baseball
where x is the horizontal distance, in feet, the ball travels and y is the height, in feet, of the ball.
To determine how far from the batter the ball will land, we determine the distance x at which the height, y=0.
We use the quadratic formula to solve.
In the quadratic equation above, a=-0.005, b=0.7, c=3.5
Since x cannot be negative, x=144.8 feet to the nearest tenth of a foot.
<u>The correct option is D.</u>
Answer:
40 + 40 + 125 + 125 + 200 + 200 = 730
Step-by-step explanation:you need to find the area of every square/rectangle in the figure, so 2 of the shapes are 8 x 5, 2 of them are 5 x 25, 2 of them are 8 x 25 getting you 730 mm^2
Two is less than three which is also less than 5.
When put into a number line from 0 to 10, it shows that 2 is closest to 0 while 5 is closest to 10 and three, will be in between 2 and 5. This shows that as you go from 2 to 3, the number increased and, it continues to increase when you go from 3 to 5. This shows that 2 is less than 3 and 3 is less than 5.
