Megan’s TV had a base price of $189 and the sales tax was 6.88%. Over the next four years, the TV consumed an average of $0.06 o

f electricity every day. It also needed repairs twice, costing $29 each time. After four years, Megan got a new TV. What was the lifetime cost of Megan’s TV? (Remember that one in every four years is a leap year.)

The solution would be like this for this specific problem:

189 x .0688 = 12.8 + 189 = 201.8<span>
(4 x 360) x .06 = 86.4
(29 x 2) + 86.4 = 144.4
201.8 + 144.4 = $346.2</span>

I am hoping that this answer has satisfied your query and it will be able to help you in your endeavor, and if you would like, feel free to ask another question.

Answer:

lifetime cost of the Megans TV is $347 .66 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Megan’s TV had a base price of $189 and the sales tax was 6.88%.

6.88 % is written in the decimal form.

= \frac{6.88}{100}

= 0.0688

Sales tax price = 0.0688 × Base price

                         = 0.0688 × 189

                         = $ 13 (Approx)

As given

Over the next four years, the TV consumed an average of $0.06 of electricity every day.

As 1 year contains 365 days and a leap year contains 366 days .

Thus

Electricity consumed in four years = Average electricity × (3× Number of  days in one years + Number of days in a leap year )

                                                        = 0.06 × ( 3 × 365 + 366)

                                                        = 0.06 × (1095 + 366)

                                                        = 0.06 × 1461

                                                        = 87.66

As given

It also needed repairs twice, costing $29 each time.

Repair cost = 2 × Cost of repair

                   = 2 × 29

                   = $58

Thus

Lifetime cost of the Megans TV = Base cost + Sales price cost + Electricity consumed in four years + Repair cost .

Putting all the values in the above

Lifetime cost of the Megans TV = $189 + $13 + $87.66 + $ 58

                                                    = $ 347.66

Therefore the lifetime cost of the Megans TV is $347 .66 .

One positive number is 14 less than another positive number. If the reciprocal of the smaller number is added to five times the
Kipish [7]

Let's call the two numbers s and l.


Given these variables, we can say: s = l - 14, based on the first sentence in the problem.


Also, remember that the reciprocal of a number is simply 1 divided by the number. Thus, we can say that:

\dfrac{1}{s} + 5\Big( \dfrac{1}{l} \Big) = \dfrac{1}{4}


To solve, we can simply substitute l -14 in for s in the second equation and solve.

\dfrac{1}{l - 14} + \dfrac{5}{l} = \dfrac{1}{4}

  • Set up

\dfrac{l}{l(l - 14)} + \dfrac{5(l - 14)}{l(l - 14)} = \dfrac{1}{4}

  • Get terms on the left side to a common denominator for easier addition

\dfrac{l + 5l - 70}{l(l - 14)} = \dfrac{1}{4}

  • Simplify

4(6l - 70) = l(l - 14)

  • Cross multiplication (\frac{a}{b} = \frac{c}{d} \Rightarrow ad = bc)

24l - 280 = l^2 - 14l

  • Simplify

l^2 - 38l + 280 = 0

  • Subtract 24l - 280 from both sides of the equation

(l - 10)(l - 28) = 0

  • Factor left side of the equation

l = 10, 28

  • Zero Product Property

Now, notice that we have found two solutions, but the problem is only asking for one. This <em>likely </em>means that one of our solutions is extraneous. Let's take a look. Remember that the smaller positive number is equal to 14 less than the larger number. However,

s = 10 - 14 = -4,

Since s is not positive in this case, l = 10 is not a solution.


Thus, l = 28 is our only solution. In this case,

s = 28 - 14 = 14,

which means that the smaller number is 14 and the larger number is 28.
