Answer:

  $43.20

Step-by-step explanation:

The price with tax is 100% + 8% = 1.08 times the price before tax. The discount multplies that price by 100% -20% = 0.80. The discount multiplier is the same whether the discount is applied before or after the tax.

The combined effect of the two multipliers is ...

... 1.08 × 0.80 = 0.864

so the discounted price with tax added is 0.864 × $50 = $43.20

_____

Perhaps you're supposed to figure the tax (8% of $50 = $4), add the tax ($50 +4 = $54), then subtract the discount (20% of $54 = $10.80) to get

  $54.00 -10.80 = $43.20

The height of a rocket a given number of seconds after it is released is modeled by h (t) = negative 16 t squared 32 t 10. What
V125BC [204]

The variable t represents the number of seconds that have passed after the release of the rocket.

<h3>Function</h3>

The function can be defined as an expression that defines a relationship between one variable (the independent variable) and another variable (the dependent variable).

The height of a rocket a given number of seconds after it is released is modeled by,

h(t) = 6t^2 + 32t + 10

As given in the above function, h (height) is the dependent variable which depends on the number of seconds t after the rocket is released (independent variable).

Hence we can conclude that the variable t represents the number of seconds after the rocket has been released.

To know more about the function, follow the link given below.
