Okay! Assuming this only wants the tax that will be added to the total, multiply the decimal percent by the cost of the item.

7.5% = .075

14.80 * .075 = 1.11

1.11 of tax will be added onto the total cost.

The total cost would be 15.91, which you can get from adding 14.80 to 1.11 or by doing 14.80 * 1.075. Regardless, the answer to this question is 1.11.

A pair of shoes costs $52.99 and the state sales tax is 8%. Use the formula C = p + rp to find the total cost of the shoes, wher
Readme [11.4K]

The pair of shoes costs $52.99, so p = 52.99.

The state sales tax is 8%, which can be changed to decimal form by dividing by 100: 8/100 = 0.08. So r = 0.08.

Now you can plug both of these values into the formula to find the total cost of the shoes (c):

 

c = p + r*p

c = 52.99 + (0.08)*(52.99)

c = 52.99 + 4.2392

c = 57.2292

So the total cost of the shoes is $57.23

If 89 babies are sampled at random from the hospital, what is the probability that the mean weight of the sample babies would di
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

0.6836

Step-by-step explanation:

(weight - mean weight) = 48

Variance, s² = 204,304

Sample size, n = 89

We need to obtain the Zscore :

Zscore = (X - mean) / standard Error

Zscore = (weight - mean weight ) / (s/√n)

s = √204304 = 452

The difference from the meanncoukdnbe either to the right or left :

Zscore = - 48 / (452/√89) OR 48 / (452/√89)

Zscore = - 48 / 47.911904 OR - 48 / 47.911904

Zscore = - 1.002 or 1.002

P(Z < - 1.002) = 0.1582 (using Z table)

P(Z < 1.002) = 0.8418

P(Z < 1.002) - P(Z < - 1.002)

0.8418 - 0.1582

= 0.6836
