Answer:
Total items = $39.90
Sales tax amount = $3.7905
Total cost = $43.691
The clerk's error is using 9.5 as sales tax amount instead of finding 9.5% of the total items
Step-by-step explanation:
Dress = $24.95
Skirt = $14.95
steps the clerk completed.
Step 1: 24.95 + 14.95 = 39.90
Step 2: 39.90 +9.5 = 49.40
Correct steps:
Total items = dress + skirt
= $24.95 + $14.95
= $39.90
Sales tax = 9.5%
Sales tax amount = 9.5% of total
= 9.5/100 × $39.90
= 0.095 × 39.90
= $3.7905
Total cost = Total + sales tax amount
= $39.90 + $3.7905
= $43.6905
To the nearest hundredth
= $43.691
Sales tax is the amount of money imposed by government on the sales of some items
Total cost is the cost of all items including sales tax
Answer:
Volume of the cylinder = 602.88 square centimeters
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that:
Radius of cylinder = 4 cm
Height of cylinder = 12 cm
Volume of a cylinder is given by the following formula;
Volume = πr²h
Putting π = 3.14, r = 4 and h = 12 in the formula
Volume = 3.14 * (4)² * 12
Volume = 3.14 * 16 * 12
Volume = 602.88 square centimeters
Hence,
Volume of the cylinder = 602.88 square centimeters
Answer:
1.) It's 20th century painting
2.) 0.5 probability
Step-by-step explanation:
If the universal = 60
We need to first get the value of X. That is,
x (x - 2) + x + 2x + 8 + 10 = 60
First open the bracket
x^2 - 2x + x + 2x + 8 + 10 = 60
x^2 + x + 18 = 60
x^2 + x - 42 = 0
Factorise the above equation
x^2 + 7x - 6x - 42 = 0
x (x + 7) -6(x + 7) = 0
x = 6 or - 7
Since x can't be negative, so we will ignore -7
The value for T = 6(6 - 2) = 6×4 = 24
The value for B = 2(6) + 8 = 12 + 8 = 20
If a painting is chosen from random,
If it's from 20th century, the probability will be 34/60 = 0.567
If it's from British painting, the probability will be 30/60 = 0.5
We can therefore conclude that it's from 20th century painting since it has higher value of probability.
The the probability of choosing a British painting will be 30/60 = 0.5
