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

Write three numbers that round to 70 when rounded to the nearest ten
Trava [24]
The digit 7 is in the tens place so 74 will become either 70 or 80 after rounding off to the nearest ten. Draw a number line with 3 numbers on it: 70, 75 and 80. (Both possible rounded off numbers and the number in the middle.

Answer:

See Below

Step-by-step explanation:

This is very simple, but I can help more if you're stuck.

Take the number of pounds multiplied by the cost per pound.

For example, if I had 5 pounds of peaches, and they are $2 per pound...

5 pounds * $2 per pound = $10

Try it on your own :)

Geometry question on finding x.
Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

x =63^o

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Given </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

  • \text{ $\overline{MN} $ and $\overline{ML}$ are tangents .}

We know that the tangents are perpendicular to the radius at the point of contact . And here OLMN is a quadrilateral. Also we know that , the angle sum property a triangle is 360° .

<u>According</u><u> to</u><u> question</u><u> </u><u>:</u><u>-</u><u> </u>

\implies x + 117^o + 90^o +90^o = 360^o \\\\\implies x + 297^o = 360^o \\\\\implies x = 360^o - 297^o \\\\\implies x = 63^o

<u>Hence</u><u> the</u><u> </u><u>value</u><u> of</u><u> x</u><u> </u><u>is </u><u>6</u><u>3</u><u>°</u><u> </u><u>.</u>
