Dinner for four people is $120. Sales tax is 8.75%. What is the amount of the sales tax?

120/8.75

120 ÷ 8.75 ≈ 13.7

The amount of sales tax is about 13.7.

The goal of a nutritional study was to compare the caloric intake of adolescents living in rural areas of the US with the calori
stiks02 [169]

Answer:

To give more clarity to the question, lets examine the attached back-to-back stem plot.

A)

Having examined the stem plot, we can using quick calculations, summarize that:

The mean (40.45 cal/kg) and median (41 cal/kg) daily caloric intake of ninth-grade students in the rural school is higher than the corresponding measures of center, mean (32.6 cal/kg) and median (32 cal/kg), for ninth-graders in the urban school.

The median and the mean for the students in the 9th grade in the urban school is lower than that of those of their contemporaries in the rural school. The respective medians and means are stated below:

Urban 9th Grade Students

Median = 32 cal/kg

Mean = 36 cal/kg

Rural 9th Grade Students

Median = 41 cal/kg

Mean = 41 cal/kg

Please note that all figures above have been approximated to the nearest whole number.

B)

It is unreasonable to generalize the findings of this study to all rural and urban 9th-grade students in the United States because the sample is too small compared to the target population size.

To allow for generalization, they would have to collect and analyze more samples say from every state within America.

Cheers!

The sum of three certain consecutive numbers is 240. Find the three numbers. [Hint: Let x stand for the smallest number. Since t
aleksley [76]
Write an equation based on the problem in the terms of x and solve the equation
first number + second number + third number = 240
x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 240
3x + 3 = 240
3x = 240 - 3
3x = 237
  x = 237/3
  x = 79
The smallest number, x, is equal to 79

Find the next two numbers
the second number = x + 1
the second number = 79 + 1
the second number = 80

the third number = x + 2
the third number = 79 + 2
the third number = 81

ANSWER: The three numbers are 79, 80, 81

Given tantheta = 4/3 and pi < theta < 3pi/2; find cos2theta
Sidana [21]

Answer:

d. -7/25

Step-by-step explanation:

π<θ<3π/2  in third quadrant

tanθ = 4/3

sinθ = - 4/5

cosθ = - 3/5

cos 2θ = cos²θ - sin²θ = (- 3/5)² - (- 4/5)² = 9/25 - 16/25 = - 7/25

marta [7]

Answer:

A) Length = 110.4 mm and width = 62.1 mm

B) A = 6855.84 mm²

C) length = 114.7 mm

width = 55.8 mm

Area = 6400.26 mm²

D) Screen with aspect ratio of 16:9 is bigger

Step-by-step explanation:

A) We are told that the aspect ratio of the phone screen = 16:9. This means that the ratio of the length to the width of the screen is 16:9.

To find the side length, we will say that;

length = 16x

width = 9x

Thus, since the edges are perpendicular, then we can use pythagoras theorem since we know that the diagonal is 127 mm

Thus;

(16x)² + (9x²)] = 127²

256x² + 81x² = 16129

337x² = 16129

x² = 16129/337

x = √(16129/337)

x = 6.9

Thus;

length = 16x = 16 × 6.9 = 110.4 mm

width = 9x = 9 × 6.9 = 62.1 mm

Length = 110.4 mm and width = 62.1 mm

B) area of screen is;

A = length × width

A = 110.4 × 62.1

A = 6855.84 mm²

C) We are told that the aspect ratio is now 18.5:9.

Thus;

length = 18.5x

width = 9x

Thus;

(18.5x)² + (9x²)] = 127²

342.25x² + 81x² = 16129

423.25x² = 16129

x² = 16129/423.25

x = √(16129/423.25)

x = 6.2

length = 18.5x = 18.5 × 6.2 = 114.7 mm

width = 9x = 9 × 6.2 = 55.8 mm

Area = 114.7 × 55.8 = 6400.26 mm²

D) Screen with aspect ratio of 16:9 is bigger
