Answer:

let the hotel charge before tax for second hotel be x

then the hotel charge before tax for first hotel = x+1500

tax of first hotel = 7.5% * (x+1500) = (7.5x+11250)/100

tax from second hotel= 7% of x = 7x/100

total tax = 547.50

7x/100 + (7.5x+11250)/100 =547.50

14.5x = 54750-11250

14.5x= 43500

x= 3000

hotel charge in first city = 4500

in second city =3000

The cylindrical storage shed shown below is completely filled with road salt to make a town's roads safer during snow storms. Ab
tester [92]

Answer:

a. 40000pi ft^3

b. 5 times

Step-by-step explanation:

a. the volume of a cylinder is pi * h * r^2

r = 20ft, h = 100ft

so V = pi * 100 * 20^2 = 40,000pi or around 125663.7 ft^3

b. to find the number of times, divide the volume by the amount of salt needed per storm then round down:

40000pi/21000 = 5.98 so 5 times. notes: depending on the teacher you might just round to the nearest integer

On a coordinate plane, a piecewise function has 3 lines. The graph shows cleaning time in hours on the x-axis and total cost in
sveta [45]

Answer:

  C. (2, 6] hour jobs cost $100

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's consider each of these statements in view of the graph:

  1. A cleaning time of 2 hours will cost $100. -- The closed circle at (2, 50) tells you the cost of a 2-hour job is $50, not $100.
  2. A cleaning time of 6 hours will cost $150. -- The closed circle at (6, 100) tells you the cost of a 6-hour job is $100, not $150.
  3. Cost is a fixed rate of $100 for jobs requiring more than 2 hours, up to a maximum of 6 hours. -- The line between the open circle at (2, 100) and the closed circle at (6, 100) tells you this is TRUE.
  4. Cost is a fixed rate of $200 for jobs that require at least 6 hours. -- "At least 6 hours" means "greater than or equal to 6 hours." The closed circle at (6, 100) means a 6-hour job is $100, not $200.
