$38.00 x 0.25= $9.50
$38.00 - $9.50= $28.75
$28.75 x 0.06= $1.725
$28.75 + $1.73= $30.48

Answer:

The total amount customer pays for the discounted book is $ 30.21 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

A customer buys a different book that has an original selling price of $38.

The book is discounted 25%.

25% is written in the decimal form

=\frac{25}{100}

= 0.25

Discount amount = 0.25 × Selling price of the books

                            = 0.25 × 38

                            = $ 9.5

Cost of the books after getting discount of 25% = Selling price of the books - Discount amount

                                                                                = $ 38 - $ 9.5

                                                                                = $ 28.5

As given

The customer must pay a 6% sales tax on the discounted price of the book.

6% is written in the decimal form

= \frac{6}{100}

= 0.06

Sales tax amount = 0.06 × Cost of the books after getting discount of 25% .

                             = 0.06 × 28.5

                             = $ 1.71

Thus

Total amount pays by the customer for the books = Sales tax amount + Cost of the books after getting discount of 25%.

                                                                                   = $ 1.71 + $ 28.5

                                                                                   = $ 30.21

Therefore the total amount customer pays for the discounted book is $ 30.21 .

The radius of a circle is 8 feet. What is the area of sector bounded by a 90° arc?
Lera25 [3.4K]

Since 90 degree is 1/4 of a circle, the area will be 1/4 th area of the full circle.

The radius is given by, r = 8 ft, therefore, the area of the full circle is,

\begin{gathered} A=\pi\times r^2 \\ A=3.14\times8^2=200.96ft^2 \end{gathered}

Therefore, the area of the sector is,

A^{\prime}=\frac{1}{4}\times200.96ft^2=50.24ft^2\begin{gathered} A^{\prime}=\frac{\theta}{360}\times\pi\times r^2 \\ \text{ =}\frac{\text{90}}{360}\times\pi\times8^2 \\ \text{ =}\frac{1}{4}\pi\times64=16\pi \end{gathered}

What is the perimeter of a triangle with side lengths of 9, 12, and 4x?
ludmilkaskok [199]
The answer is 21 + 4x.


You find this answer by adding up all the sides.
9+12+4x= 21+4x ... you don't add 4x because it has a variable that we do not know of the value.
