The sales tax is $3.2 and total cost is $ 43.2

Solution:

Given, An item sells for 40$  

And sales tax on the item is 8 %  

We have to find what is the sales tax and total cost

Now, we know that, sales tax = 8% of selling price  

\begin{array}{l}{\text { Sales tax }=\frac{8}{100} \times \text { selling price }} \\\\ {\text { Sales tax }=\frac{8}{100} \times 40} \\\\ {\text { Sales tax }= 3.2}\end{array}

Now, sales tax = $ 3.2, then,

<em>Total final cost = selling price + sales tax </em>

Total cost = 40 + 3.2

Total cost = $ 43.2

Hence, sales tax and total cost are $3.2 and $43.2 respectively.

A crewman on a fishing boat was injured and needs to be treated in a hospital right away. You are with a Coast Guard station nea
Alborosie

The helicopter has to leave at 1:30 pm to meet the boat after 2 hours at the meeting point.

<h3>What is Speed ?</h3>

Speed is the distance covered by an object in a given amount of time.

It is measured in km/h or m/h.

According to the data in the question

If the boat goes to the station ,

Speed of the boat = 10mph

it will take 400/10 = 40 hours.

The helicopter has 6600 lbs of fuel.

For the 30 minutes to remove the fisherman and the 1 hour more fuel is needed, that will consume

1.5 *1200 = 1800 lbs of fuel.

the helicopter now has

6600-1800

= 4800 lbs of fuel for flying.

This will give it 4 hours of flying time as

4800 lbs/1200 lbs per hour

it can only fly one way for 2 hours at 150 mph

= 300 miles distance from the station.

The boat is at 400 miles

boat needs to reach the meeting point 300 miles away from the station.

which is 100 miles from where it is now

100/10 = 10 hours

the boat will need 10 hours to go to the meeting point.

To meet the boat , which will take 10 hours the helicopter must start flying after 8 hours as it will also take 2 hrs

So 8 hours from 5:30 am will be 1:30 pm

The helicopter has to leave at 1:30 pm to meet the boat after 2 hours at the meeting point.

Convert 1.50 micrometers^2 to m^2. Show your solution.
Vadim26 [7]

Here is the solution for the problem:

<span>1m * 1m = 1m² </span><span>
<span>1m = 1,000,000µm = 1 x 10^6µm </span>
<span>1 x 10^6µm * 1 x 10^6µm = 1m² </span>
<span>1x10^12µm² = 1m² (Now, divide both sides by 1x10^12). </span>
<span>1x10^12µm² / (1 x 10^12) = 1m² / (1 x 10^12) </span>
<span>1µm² = 0∙000 000 000 001 m² (x both sides by 1.5). </span>
<span>1.5µm² = 0∙000 000 000 0015 m² </span>
1.5µm² = 1∙5x10^-12 m²</span>

So 1.50 micrometers^2 is equal to 1.5 x 10^-12 m². 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.
