The total cost of the meal is $30.02

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of meal = $24.62

Tax = 6%

Tax amount = 6% of cost of meal

$Tax\ amount=\frac{6}{100}*24.62\\Tax\ amount=\frac{147.72}{100}\\Tax\ amount=\$1.48$

Cost after sales tax = 24.62+1.48 = $26.10

Tip = 15%

Tip amount = 15% of cost after sales tax

$Tip\ amount=\frac{15}{100}*26.10\\\\Tip\ amount=\frac{391.5}{100}\\Tip\ amount=\$3.92$

Total cost of meal = Cost after sales tax + Tip amount

Total cost of meal = 26.10+3.92 = $30.02

The total cost of the meal is $30.02

A force of 50 pounds acts on an object at an angle of 45 degrees. A second force of 75 pounds acts on the object at an angle of

Contact [7]

Answer:

The magnitude of the resultant force is:

$R=100.3 \:pound$

The direction is:

$\theta=1.2^{\circ}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's find the components of each vector is x and y-directions first.

<u>Sum of x-component vector forces.</u>

$F_{tot-x}=F_{1}cos(45)+F_{2}cos(30)$

$F_{tot-x}=50cos(45)+75cos(30)$

$F_{tot-x}=100.3 \: pound$

<u>Sum of y-component vector forces.</u>

$F_{tot-y}=-F_{1}sin(45)+F_{2}sin(30)$

$F_{tot-y}=-50sin(45)+75sin(30)$

$F_{tot-y}=2.1 \: pound$

The magnitude of the resultant force is:

$R=\sqrt{100.3^{2}+2.1^{2}}$

$R=100.3 \:pound$

The direction is:

$tan(\theta)=\frac{2.1}{100.3}$

$\theta=arctan(\frac{2.1}{100.3})$

$\theta=1.2^{\circ}$

I hope it helps you!
