Harry buys a wand for $12.50 plus 8% tax. Ron buys his sister a diary for $13 plus 8% tax. Write the sum, in dollars, that Harry

Tanya [424]

Answer:

$27.54

Step-by-step explanation:

The straightforward way to do this is to compute the tax and total on each amount, then add those together. There is an easier way.

($12.50 + 0.08·12.50) + ($13.00 + 0.08·13.00) = $12.50·1.08 +13.00·1.08

= 1.08($12.50 +13.00)

= 1.08·$25.50

= $27.54

Together, Ron and Harry paid a total of $27.54.

The ratio of the measures of the sides of a triangle is 3:4:5. Its perimeter is 48 inches. Find the scale factor as a decimal, a

Trava [24]

Given:

The ratio of the measures of the sides of a triangle is 3:4:5.

Its perimeter is 48 inches.

To find:

The scale factor as a decimal, and the measure of each side of the triangle.

Solution:

Let x be the scale factor. Then the measures of sides of the triangle are 3x, 4x and 5x.

The perimeter of the triangle is 48 inches. It means the sum of all sides of the triangle is 48 inches.

$3x+4x+5x=48$

$12x=48$

Divide both sides by 12.

$x=\dfrac{48}{12}$

$x=4$

Now, the measures of sides are:

$3x=3(4)$

$3x=12$

Similarly,

$4x=4(4)$

$4x=16$

And,

$5x=5(4)$

$5x=20$

Therefore, the scale factor is 4 and the measures of sides are 12, 16 and 20.
