You need to buy 30 pounds of hamburger and 15 packages of buns for a staff-appreciation picnic. You have 2 options for hamburger

and 2 options for buns, shown below. In addition, you have a 10%-off coupon that can be used on either the hamburger or the buns, but not both, after any other discounts are applied. What is your best cost, including tax of 5% of the purchase price after all discounts, rounded to the nearest $0.01?

We have to determine the best cost after all discounts and tax.

Hamburger:

1 pound of Open Acres = $2.39

30 pounds of Open Acres = 30 \times \$2.39 = \$71.7

10% off is provided if we buy at least 10 pounds of Open Acres, we bought 30 pounds. So, we get 10% off.

10% off on 30 pounds of Open Acres Hamburgers = 10% of $71.7

= \frac{10}{100} \times 71.7 = 7.17

Total cost of 30 pounds of Open Acres Hamburgers = $71.7 - $7.17

=$64.53

Buns:

1 packet of Burly buns = $1.93

15 packets of Burly buns = 15 \times \$1.93

=$28.95

5% off on 15 packets of Burly buns = 5% of $28.95

= \frac{5}{100} \times 28.95 = \$1.4475

Total cost of 15 packets of Burly buns = $28.95 - $1.4475

=$27.50

Now, according to the question, a 10%-off coupon that can be used on either the hamburger or the buns, but not both, after any other discounts are applied.

Let us apply 10% off applied on Hamburgers:

10% of $64.53

=\frac{10}{100} \times 64.53 = \$6.453

Now, total cost of hamburgers after all the discounts = $64.53-$6.453

= $58.077

And total cost of Buns after all the discounts = $27.50

Total price of hamburgers and buns = $58.077 + $27.50

= $85.577

5% tax applied on total price of hamburgers and buns = 5% of $85.577

= $4.28

Best cost on the purchase of hamburgers and buns = $85.577 + $4.28

= $89.857

Rounding to the nearest hundredth dollar, we get

Best cost on purchase of 30 pounds of hamburgers and 15 packets of buns after all discounts and tax = $89.86

6: 0.79

7: 5.2

8: 4.86

9: 4.3

I hope I helped! Also, one thing when you adding decimals or multiplying them, pretend the decimal point isn't even there. Then, once you have your answer, you just add the decimal in the middle. Basically just adding like in first grade! Super easy and I hope I helped!

<h3>Answer:   0.5</h3>

This is equivalent to the fraction 1/2

==============================================================

Explanation:

The distance from A to B is 3 units. We can count out the spaces, or subtract the x coordinates of the two points and apply absolute value.

|A-B| = |-5-(-8)| = |-5+8| = |3| = 3

or

|B-A| = |-8-(-5)| = |-8+5| = |-3| = 3

We can say that segment AB is 3 units long.

--------------------------

The distance from A' to B' is 1.5 units because...

|A'-B'| = |-2.5-(-4)| = |-2.5+4| = |1.5| = 1.5

or

|B'-A'| = |-4-(-2.5)| = |-4+2.5| = |-1.5| = 1.5

The absolute values ensure the distance is never negative.

We can say A'B' = 1.5

---------------------------

Now divide the lengths of A'B' over AB to get the scale factor k

k = (A'B')/(AB)

k = (1.5)/(3)

k = 0.5

0.5 converts to the fraction 1/2.

The smaller rectangle A'B'C'D' has side lengths that are exactly 1/2 as long compared to the side lengths of ABCD.
