A DVD priced $17.50 cost $18.81 after tax. What was the percent of sales tax?

1 answer:

6 0

7.48571% because 18.81-17.50 divided by 17.50 times 100 equals 0.0748571 which you then have to multiply by 100 again to get the percent change. So, the answer is 7.48571% sales tax.

Classwork 12.1 surface area

s344n2d4d5 [400]

Answer:

6) LA = 90 units² and SA = 202 units²

7) LA = 377 units² and SA = 477.5 units²

8) LA = 208 units² and SA = 232 units²

9) LA = 455 units² and SA = 591 units²

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise the rules of lateral area and surface area

- Lateral area of the solid = perimeter of its base × its height

- Surface area = lateral area + 2 × area of its base

* Now lets solve the problems

6) The solid is a rectangular prism

- Its base is a rectangle with dimensions 8 units and 7 units

- Its height is 3 units

∵ Perimeter of the rectangle = 2(L + W)

∴ Perimeter of the base = 2(8 + 7) = 2(15) = 30 units

∴ LA = 30 × 3 = 90 units²

∵ Area of the rectangle = L × W

∴ Area of the base = 8 × 7 = 56 units²

∴ SA = 90 + 2 × 56 = 90 + 112 = 202 units²

7) The solid is a cylinder

- Its base is a circle with diameter 8 units

∴ Its radius = 8 ÷ 2 = 4 units

- Its height is 15 units

∵ The perimeter of the circle is 2πr

∴ The perimeter of the base = 2π(4) = 8π

∴ LA = 8π(15) = 120π = 376.99 ≅ 377 units²

∵ The area of the circle = πr²

∴ The area of the base = π(4)² = 16π

∴ SA = 120π + 2 × 16π = 120π + 32π = 152π = 477.5 units²

6) The solid is a triangular prism

- Its base is a triangle with sides 5 , 5 , 6 units and height 4 units

- Its height is 13 units

∵ Perimeter of the triangle is the sum of the 3 sides

∴ Perimeter of the base = 5 + 5 + 6 = 16 units

∴ LA = 16 × 13 = 208 units²

∵ Area of the triangle = 1/2 × base × height

∴ Area of the base = 1/2 × 6 × 4 = 12 units²

∴ SA = 208 + 2 × 12 = 208 + 24 = 232 units²

9) The solid is a prism

- Its base is an isosceles trapezium with parallel bases 7 units and 10

units, 2 non-parallel bases 9 units and height 8 units

- Its height is 13 units

∵ Perimeter of the trapezium is the sum of its sides

∴ Perimeter of the base = 7 + 10 + 9 + 9 = 35 units

∴ LA = 35 × 13 = 455 units²

∵ Area of the trapezium = 1/2(b1 + b2) × h

∴ Area of the base = 1/2(7 + 10) × 8 = 68 units²

∴ SA = 455 + 2 × 68 = 455 + 136 = 591 units²

Harry buys a TV priced at £1200 plus 20% VAT.

RoseWind [281]

Answer:

£ 114

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

Price of TV = £ 1200

VAT = 20%

Amount paid = £ 300

Amount paid monthly =.?

Next, we shall determine the VAT. This can be obtained as follow:

VAT = 20% of price of TV

VAT = 20/100 × 1200

VAT = £ 240

Next, we shall determine the total cost of the TV. This can be obtained as follow:

Price of TV = £ 1200

VAT = £ 240

Total cost of TV =?

Total cost = Price + VAT

Total cost = 1200 + 240

Total cost = £ 1440

Next, we shall determine the balance amount he needs to pay. This can be obtained as follow:

Total cost = £ 1440

Amount paid = £ 300

Balance amount =?

Balance = Total cost – Amount paid

Balance = 1440 – 300

Balance = £ 1140

Finally, we shall determine the amount Harry will pay month.

Balance Amount = £ 1140

Number of months = 10

Amount paid monthly =.?

Amount paid monthly = Balance / number of month

Amount paid monthly = 1140 / 10

Amount paid monthly = £ 114

Therefore, Harry will pay £ 114 monthly.

Amari claims that a rectangle is sometimes a parallelogram but a parallelogram is always a

Maslowich

Answer:

The statement is false.

Step-by-step explanation:

A parallelogram is a figure of four sides, such that opposite sides are parallel

A rectangle is a four-sided figure such that all internal angles are 90°

Here, the statement is:

"A rectangle is sometimes a parallelogram but a parallelogram is always a

rectangle."

Here if we found a parallelogram that is not a rectangle, then that is enough to prove that the statement is false.

The counterexample is a rhombus, which is a parallelogram that has two internal angles smaller than 90° and two internal angles larger than 90°, then this parallelogram is not a rectangle, then the statement is false.

The correct statement would be:

"A parallelogram is sometimes a rectangle, but a rectangle is always a parallelogram"

Please help and explain why, so that I understand.

chubhunter [2.5K]

Hello there!

The number of people in different cities should be represented on a graph as Two-dimensional.

I'll explain why: The number of dimensions you need on a graph is equal to the number of variables that you are studying. In this case, you have two variables in the study:

1)The number of people
2)The city where they live

You'll need a two-dimensional graph with two axes in which one of the axes represents the number of people and the other axis represents the city. If you were also studying the age of those people, you'll need one more dimension to include this new variable.

Have a nice day!
