Answer:

Colleen pays 8 cents more in taxes than Brad

Step-by-step explanation:

We should find the money each of them pay in taxes.

Colleen

Buys a movie for $20 and pays 7% sales tax.

That is, she has to pay in taxes 7% of $20.

So she pays 0.07*20 = $1.40 in taxes

Brad

Brad buys the same movie for $22 and pays 6% sales tax.

That is, he has to pay in taxes 6% of $22.

So he pays 0.06*22 = $1.32 in taxes

Collen pays more. She pays $1.40-$1.32 = $0.08 = 8 cents more.

Elodia [21]

Answer:

6 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

If the object in question is a cube, then we could say the length is 1, the depth is 1 and the height is 1, in which case each side of the cube has an area of 1 ft^2.  

There are 6 such sides, so the total surface area is 6 ft^2.

Next time please be explicit in naming the shape, either verbally or with a diagram.

Dovator [93]
It will take him 28 weeks. If he already has $60 of $200 saved, you would do 200 - 60. That would give you 140. To find out how long it would take him to make $140, you would have to do 140 divided by 5 to get the number of weeks.

An equilateral triangle has an apothem of 5 cm. Find the perimeter of the triangle to the nearest centimeter.
san4es73 [151]
The apothem is the distance from the center to the midpoint of one of the sides of a regular polygon.  You can make a right triangle with the apothem, the line from the midpoint to the corner and the line from the center to the corner.  An equilateral triangle has 60 degree angles (180/3).  The right triangle has half of one of those angles so 30 degrees.  Now we have a 30-60-90 triangle where the short leg is 5cm.  The long leg, which is also half of one side of the triangle is thus 5\sqrt{3}.  A whole side of the triangle is 10\sqrt{3}.  Multiply that by 3 to get the perimeter of <span>30\sqrt{3}.</span>
