Answer:
127.253 m^3
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the volume, we start by getting the area of the square base
Mathematically, that will be 4.9^2 m^2
To complete the volume, we multiply the area of the base by the height
= 4.9^2 * 5.3 = 127.253 m^3
Answer: The discounted price is $948. The value of the discount itself is $632.
Step-by-step explanation:
<h3>To calculate discounts, you multiply the percentage of the discount as a decimal with the price of the product.
In this particular case:
0.40 [percentage of discount] x $1580 [original cost] = $632 (the amount of the discount) </h3><h3>$1580 - $632 = $698 [new price after discount is applied]</h3>
Answer: 98.1%
Explanation:
A 10% sale means that the post-sale price of the item is now 90%, or 0.9 of the original cost of the item. We then apply 9% sales tax by multiplying the 0.9 by 109%, or 1.09. 0.9 * 1.09 = .981, so the total cost of the item is 98.1% of the original pre-sale sticker price.
For percentage problems that do not deal with a specific starting number, it is always helpful to plug in 100 for the starting number. Here, we would then have a post-sale price of 90 dollars, and if we calculate the sales tax for the 90-dollar item it would be 90 * 0.09 = $8.10. THis gives us a total cost of 90 + 8.10 = $98.10, or 98.1% of the original 100-dollar price.
