Answer:

$4.34

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the information:

  • The original price: $5
  • Discount : 20%
  • Tax: 8.5%

We can find out the actual price that Diane bought a bunch of balloons that was marked down 20% is:

= the original price (100% - discount rate)

= 5(100% -20%)

= $4

  • The tax amount she need to pay is:

= The actual price*tax rate

= $4*8.5%

= $0.34

=> the total cost of the bunch of balloons :

The actual price + tax price

= $4 + $0.34

= $4.34

Hope it will find you well.

A cone has a circular base with a diameter of 18 inches the height of the cone is 40inches what is the approximate lateral area
arlik [135]

Answer:

A=1158.66\ \text{inches}^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The diameter of the base of a circular cone, d = 18 inches

Height of the cone, h = 40 inches

We need to find the lateral surface area of the cone. The formula of the lateral surface of the cone is given by :

A=\pi rl

l is the slant height of the cone,

l=\sqrt{r^2+h^2} \\\\l=\sqrt{(9)^2+(40)^2} \\\\l=41\ \text{inches}, d = 18 inches, r = 9 inches

So,

A=3.14\times 9\times 41\\\\A=1158.66\ \text{inches}^2

So, the lateral surface area of the cone is 1158.66\ \text{inches}^2.

Please help me with this
Sidana [21]

Answer:

8 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a triangle = \frac{1}{2} bh

where b is the base and h the perpendicular height

Using b = 20 and h = 12, then

A = 0.5 × 20 × 12 = 120 ft²

Using b = 30 and perpendicular height = h, then

0.5 × 30 × h = 120

15h = 120 ( divide both sides by 15

h = 8

You are designing a rectangular and closure with a rectangular sections separated by parallel walls if you have 2500 feet of fen
erica [24]

Answer:

781250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = length of fenced side parallel to the side that borders the river

and y = length of each of the other two fenced sides  

Then, x + 2y = 2500

<=>  x = 2500- 2y

Area = xy = y(2500-2y)

            = -y^{2} + 2500y

The graph of the area function is a parabola opening downward.

The maximum area occurs when y = -2500/[2(-2)] = 625

                                             x = 2500-2y = 1250

The maximum area that can be enclosed = xy = 1250*625 = 781250
