Answer:

Yes, we have enough money to pay for the groceries.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that Groceries cost $75. The tax rate is 5%.

We have to check that will the amount of $80 enough to pay for the groceries or not.

<em>For this we will firstly calculate the total cost of groceries after applying tax rate of 5% on groceries. </em>

Cost of groceries after applying tax rate is given by;

Since we know that by applying a tax on any item it's cost gets increased.

So, <u>Cost of groceries after tax</u> = Cost of groceries before tax + Amount of tax      

Amount of tax = Tax rate \times Cost of groceries

                        = 5% \times $75

                        = \frac{5}{100} \times 75 = $3.75

So, Cost of groceries after tax = $75 + $3.75 = $78.75

Since we have an amount of $80 with us which means that we are able to buy the groceries after giving tax on it as $78.75 < $80.

Therefore, yes we have enough money to pay for the groceries.

Esi says that the value of z when z^2 = 80 does not belong in either of these categories since z must be greater than 8.
Anettt [7]

Answer:

9

Step-by-step explanation:

if z=8 then z^2 would be 64, which is not equal to 80

iz z=9 then z^2 would be 81, which is closer to 80 than 64

therefore, 9 is the whole number than z would be closest to

The simplified expression
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

5x^2 y^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to use the properties shown below to solve this:

1. \sqrt[n]{x^a} =x^{\frac{a}{n}}

2. \sqrt{x}\sqrt{x}  =x

3.  \sqrt{x} \sqrt{y}=\sqrt{x*y}

Area of a triangle is given by  1/2 * base * height, so we do that and simplify:

A=\frac{1}{2}(\sqrt{5x^3} )(2\sqrt{5xy^4} )\\A=\frac{1}{2}(5x^3)^{\frac{1}{2}}*2*(5xy^4)^{\frac{1}{2}}\\A=\sqrt{5}x^{\frac{3}{2}}*\sqrt{5}\sqrt{x} }  y^2\\A=\sqrt{5} \sqrt{5}x^{\frac{3}{2}} x^{\frac{1}{2}}y^2\\A=5*x^2y^2\\A=5x^2 y^2
