A music store charges $18.50 for a CD plus a 0.5% city tax and a separate 4% state tax.

1 answer:

3 0

A) The equation will become: 18.50 (1.005) + 18.50 (0.04)= 19.3325
Which can be rounded to 19.33
b) 18.50 (1.04)-18.50(1.005)= 0.6475
Which can be rounded to 0.65

Therefore your answer is Number 1)

You are planning to buy a house for $800,000. City bank offers a 30 year loan at 4.9 % apr ( Annual percentage interest rate) if

masya89 [10]

Answer:

3396.65

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's start by cacluating the amount the bank is loaning us

800000*.8=640000

Let's now calculate the effective rate: .049/12= .004083333333

let x= payment

$640000=x\frac{1-(1+.004083333333)^{-30*12}}{.004083333333}\\x=3396.651012$

A pharmacist wants to mix a 30% saline solution with a 10% saline solution to get 200 mL of a 12% saline solution. How much of e

Bess [88]

Answer:

30% constituents=20 mL

10% constituents=180 mL

Step-by-step explanation:

x= 30% volume

y=10% volume

For our first equation, we know the total volume is 200 mL and is the sum

x+y=200

y=200-x (1)

For our second equation, we do a mass balance for 200 mL of final solution.

12% w/v = 0.12 g/mL

This means that in 1 mL of solution, we have 0.12 g of NaCl.

For any solution, concentration multiplied by volume will give the mass of NaCl:

Mass in x mL= C*V (g/mL) (mL)

So in 200 mL, we have

0.12*200 (g/mL) (mL)

=24g of NaCl

Cx*Vx + Cy*Vy=24

0.3x+0.1y=24 (2)

Substitute y=200-x into (2)

0.3x+0.1(200-x)=24

0.3x+20-0.1x=24

0.2x=24-20

0.2x=4

Divide both sides by 0.2

0.2x/0.2=4/0.2

x=20

Substitute x=20 into (1)

y=200-x

y=200-20

y=180

30% constituents=20 mL

10% constituents=180 mL

How can you convert 0.23 into a fraction?

madreJ [45]

Answer:

First take 0.23 as 0.23/1

Then Multiply the numerator and denominator by any number, Let us say 100

So it becomes,

0.23 x 100/100

=> 23/100

Michelle is building a rectangular landing strip for airplanes .She has material to cover 1/1,500 of a square mile. The landing

ANEK [815]

I think that the missing word here is:
"with the amount of the material that Michelle has"

Let's say that her landing strip is x miles long, then its area would be:

$\frac{1}{6} *x$

We also know how big it is:

$\frac{1}{6} *x= \frac{1}{1 500}$

now, let's multiply both sides by 6:
$\frac{6}{6} *x= \frac{6}{1 500}$
$1 *x= \frac{3}{750}$
$x= \frac{1}{250}$

So the answer is that it would be $x= \frac{1}{250}$ miles wide
