Answer:

I buy 4 food items and 7 non-food items from the store.

Step-by-step explanation:

The food items in the store are sold at $3 each and the non-food items are sold at $3 plus 5% tax.

So, the cost of each non-food items will be 3(1 + \frac{5}{100}) = 3.15 dollars.

If we consider that I buy 1 food item, then I buy $(34.05 - 3) = $31.05 of non-food items which is not a multiple of $3.15.

If I buy 2 food items, then I buy $(31.05 - 3) = $28.05 of non-food items which is again not a multiple of $3.15.

If we consider that I buy 3 food items, then I buy $(28.05 - 3) = $25.05 of non-food items which is again not a multiple of $3.15.

If I buy 4 food items, then I but $(25.05 - 3) = $22.05 of non-food items which is finally a multiple of $3.15 as (3.15 × 7) = 22.05.

Therefore, I buy 4 food items and 7 non-food items from the store. (Answer)

What is the length of the diameter of a circle inscribed in a right triangle with the length of hypotenuse c and the sum of the
jeyben [28]

Answer:

  diameter = m - c

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔABC, let ∠C be the right angle. The length of the tangents from point C to the inscribed circle are "r", the radius. Then the lengths of tangents from point A are (b-r), and those from point B have length (a-r).

The sum of the lengths of the tangents from points A and B on side "c" is ...

  (b-r) +(a-r) = c

  (a+b) -2r = c

Now, the problem statement defines the sum of side lengths as ...

  a+b = m

and, of course, the diameter (d) is 2r, so we can rewrite the above equation as ...

  m -d = c

  m - c = d . . . . add d-c

The diameter of the inscribed circle is the difference between the sum of leg lengths and the hypotenuse.
