Measure of angle is 6 less than 5 times its complement,
Equation is:
A= 5 x (90 - A) - 6
Solve for A.
A=5(90-A)-6
A=450-5A-6
Add 5A to both sides
6A=444
A=74°
Now the complementary angle=90°-74° =16°
Answer: 16°
Cost of the compact disc player = 50 pounds
Percentage of VAT = 17 1/2%
= 35/2%
Then
Amount of VAT that needs to be given = (35/2)% * 50
= (35/200) * 50
= 1750/200
= 8.75
So the amount of VAT that has to be given is 8.75 pound
Amount that needs to be paid for the compact disc = (50 + 8.75) pound
= 58.75 pound.
So the total amount that needs to be paid for the compact
disc is 58.75 pounds
Answer:
a) $4.86
b) $57.39
Step-by-step explanation:
a) To find how much sales tax Allison paid, find the sale price. The price of the game was 12% off. This means Allison paid 88% of the new price. COnevrt 88% to 0.88. The multiply it with the price.
0.88*59.69 = 52.53
The sale price was $52.53. She will pay 9.25% or 0.0925 of the sale price.
0.0925 (52.53) = 4.86
b) She pays in total $52.53 + 4.86 = 57.39
