Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The 20% discount amounted to ...

  0.20 × $42.00 = $8.40

so the price before tax was ...

  $42.00 -8.40 = $33.60

The tax amount is 3% of this value, so is ...

  0.03 × $33.60 = $1.008 ≈ $1.01

So the total price paid for the shirt was ...

  $33.60 +1.01 = $34.61

Randy paid $34.61 for the shirt after discount and tax.

___

<em>Alternate solution</em>

You can realize that the 20% discount means that Randy will pay 80% of the original price of the shirt. Similarly, the 3% added tax means Randy will finally pay 103% of the discounted price. Then the total price Randy pays is ...

  $42.00×0.80×1.03 = $34.608 ≈ $34.61

aliya0001 [1]

Okay, so since the discount is 60% of the price and it comes out to $2.8, we are going to form the following expression, where x is the original price.

60% of x = 2.8

Simply means: 60/100 * x = 2.8

You solve for x, which comes out to $4, which is your original price.

On the grid, sketch a graph to represent
Greeley [361]

Answer:

Please find attached, the required graph created on MS Excel

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between Sandy's house and the school = 200 m

The number of minutes Sandy talked to her friend for = 10 minutes

The time it took Sandy to return home to pick her homework = 5 minutes

Let <em>x </em>represent Sandy's location she stops to talk to her friend 10 minutes, we have;

The slope of the motion on the graph, m₁ = (x - 0)/(t - 0)

The slope of her motion running home to pick the up her homework, m₂ = (x - 0)/(5 - 0)

Given that t > 5, the slope on trip back home, m₁, is larger than are her initial slope, m₂

Therefore, where x = 125, we have;

The rate at which she returned home = m₂ = (125 m - 0)/(5 min - 0) = 25 m/min

Given that the same rate m₂ is what she used in heading back to school, we have;

The time it takes her to get to school = 200 m/(25 m/min) = 8 minutes

Therefore, whereby it took her 10 minutes to reach point <em>x</em>, we have the following coordinate points on the graph in a tabular form;

\begin{array}{ccc} Time \ (minutes) \ x-axis&&Distance  \ (meters) \ y-axis\\0&&0\\10&&25\\15&&0\\23&&200\end{array}

The plot of the above point is completed using MS Excel as shown in the attached diagram.

QveST [7]

Answer: 9 L

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The dimension of the rectangular container is 40\times 30\times 25\ cm^3

It is filled with \frac{3}{5} of the height

Water present in the container

\Rightarrow 40\times 30\times 25\times \dfrac{3}{5}\\\\\Rightarrow 18000\ cm^3

Also, 1\ L=1000\ cm^3

\therefore 18,000\ cm^3=18\ L

Now, half of the water is poured out

So, half is left

\Rightarrow \dfrac{18}{2}=9\ L

Thus, 9 L of water is left in the container
