Answer:
a - 6%
b - $7.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer for a
the only items that had sales tax were $3.00 and $0.50. The total tax for the both was $0.21 so you can find what percent 0.21 is of 3.00 + 0.50 o 3.50. Do this by dividing the percent you are looking for, 0.21, by what it is the percent of 3.50. 0.21 / 3.50 = 0.06. then you multiply the number you got, in this case 0.06 by 100 to find the percentage so it is 6%
The answer for b
Here you can just take the subtotal, $13.00, and subtract all the other prices and you will be left with the price of the top. 13.00 - 3.00 - 2.00 - 0.50 = 7.50. So the answer is $7.50
Answer:
= 215008. 21 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
she has $13.80 every hour because 842 divided by 40 plus 12 equals 61 so then and you cant round anymore.
Let's define variables:
s = original speed
s + 12 = faster speed
The time for the half of the route is:
60 / s
The time for the second half of the route is:
60 / (s + 12)
The equation for the time of the trip is:
60 / s + 60 / (s + 12) + 1/6 = 120 / s
Where,
1/6: held up for 10 minutes (in hours).
Rewriting the equation we have:
6s (60) + s (s + 12) = 60 * 6 (s + 12)
360s + s ^ 2 + 12s = 360s + 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s = 4320
s ^ 2 + 12s - 4320 = 0
We factor the equation:
(s + 72) (s-60) = 0
We take the positive root so that the problem makes physical sense.
s = 60 Km / h
Answer:
The original speed of the train before it was held up is:
s = 60 Km / h
