Adam and his dad share the cost of the meal in the ratio of 2:3.

1 answer:

3 0

Adams dad pays 3/5 of the meal due to the ratio, so his cost divided by 3 gives you one fifth £17.40 so multiply that by 5 to get the overall cost of £87

the home of bill burton is assessed at $91,000. the tax rate is 18.5 mills. what is the property tax on bills home?

IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

$1683.50

Step-by-step explanation:

You are expected to know that a "mill" is one thousandth of a dollar. In this context, it is the amount of tax on one dollar of assessed valuation. So, the tax amount is found by multiplying the valuation by 18.5/1000:

tax = 0.0185 · $91,000 = $1683.50

Answer:

The area and the perimeter of the picture are:

Area = 160 cm^2
Perimeter = 67.31 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of that figure, you can find the area how if it was a rectangle and next subtract the area of the triangle in the upper part. The area of a rectangle could be found by the next formula:

Area of a rectangle = base * height

As you can see in the picture, the base is 16 cm and the height is 12 cm, then we replace in the formula:

Area of a rectangle = 16 cm * 12 cm
Area of a rectangle = 192 cm^2

Now, we calculate the area of the triangle to subtract to the area we found and obtain the real area, the formula to obtain the area of a triangle is:

Area of a triangle = (base * height) / 2

The height of the triangle is 8 cm, and the base is 8 cm too, because you subtract to the base of the rectangle (16 cm) the measurements in the upper part (16 - 4 - 4 = 8), Now, we replace in the formula:

Area of a triangle = (8 cm * 8 cm) / 2
Area of a triangle = (64 cm^2) / 2
Area of a triangle = 32 cm^2

We subtract to the found area:

Area of the picture = 192 cm^2 - 32 cm^2
Area of the picture = 160 cm^2

To find the perimeter, you must add all the sides of the picture, but, as you can see, there is a side that doesn't have the measurent, this is the hypotenuse of the triangle used before, but how we know the other sides, we can use Pythagorean theorem:

$a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$

Where:

a = Opposite leg (8 cm)
b = Adjacent leg (8 cm)

So, we replace in the theorem:

$a^{2}+b^{2}=c^{2}$

$(8 cm)^{2}+(8cm)^{2}=c^{2}$ (and we clear c)
$\sqrt{(8 cm)^{2}+(8cm)^{2}} =c$
$\sqrt{64 cm^{2}+64cm^{2}} =c$
$\sqrt{128cm^{2}} =c$
c = 11.3137085 cm
c ≅ 11.31 cm

At last, we add all the sides of the picture begining by the base and going by the left side:

Perimeter of the picture = 16 cm + 12 cm + 4 cm + 11.31 cm + 8 cm + 4 cm + 12 cm
Perimeter of the picture = 67.31 cm approximately.

Suppose the probability of an irs audit is 2.8 percent for U.S. taxpayers who file form 1040 and who earn 100,000 or more. What

stiks02 [169]

Answer:

So, the odds that a taxpayer would be audited 28 to 972 or 2.88%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Let P(A) = Probability of irs auditing

P(A) = 2.8%

Let n = number of those who earn above 100,000

To get the odds that taxpayer would be audited, we need to first calculated the proportion of those that will be audited and those that won't.

If the probability is 2.8% then 2.8 out of 100 will be audited. That doesn't make a lot of sense since you can't have 2.8 people; we multiply the by 10/10

i.e.

Proportion, P = 2.8/100 * 10/10

P = 28/1000

The proportion of those that would not be audited is calculated as follows;

Q = 1000 - P

By substituton

Q = 1000 - 28

Q = 972

So, the odds that a taxpayer would be audited 28 to 972 or P/Q

P/Q = 28/972

= 0.0288065844

= 2.88% --- Approximately

Factor each expression 16x+40y

prohojiy [21]

Hi there!

To factor this expression, you must first find the greatest common factor of each term, 16x and 40y.

To do this, first list the factors of each coefficient since they do not share any variables:
16:1,2,4,8,16
40:1,2,4,5,8,10,20,40

Notice that among the factors of each term, 8 is the greatest common factor.

Finally, factor 8 from the expression to get 8(2x+5y) as your final answer.

Hope this helps, and have a nice day!
