Answer:

The correct answer is the sales tax charged is $5.61 for $66 dinner at 8.5% tax rate.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of the dinner is $22. Tax levied on it is $1.87

Let x% is the rate of tax in the city.

Therefore, x% of 22 = 1.87

⇒ x = 1.87 × \frac{100}{22} = 8.5

Therefore 8.5% is the tax rate in the city on foods.

Now another dinner costs $66.

Tax levied on it at the same percentage is given by 8.5% of 66 = $5.61.

Thus $5.61 as sales tax would be charged for a $66 dinner.

What is the image of N for a 300° counterclockwise rotation about the center of the regular hexagon? Will give brainiest only if
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

H

Step-by-step explanation:

here, the question says that the given regular hexagon needs to be rotated counter clockwise 300°, considering the edges labels, each movement from one edge to other is 60° as 360/6 =60.

focus on N and move on anti clockwise.

When N rotates anti clockwise about center from original to position G, is 60°,

when N moves on anti clockwise about center from original to position A is 120°.

similarly, to X is 180°, to E is 240° and to H is 300°.

so, the new position of N when rotated anti clockwise about origin of the hexagon will be at H.

is it possible to store a 20 foot long pipe in a rectangular room that is 10 feet by 12 feet by 8 feet?
Anastaziya [24]
First we'll consider the floor size.
In a 10 by 12 room the longest pipe that will fit lying on the floor equals the hypotenuse of a 10 by 12 triangle:
hypotenuse² = 10² + 12²
hypotenuse² = 100 + 144
hypotenuse² = 244
hypotenuse = <span> <span> <span> 15.62 feet

Now we have to consider the third dimension (height = 8 feet).
The two sides would be 15.62 and 8
</span></span></span>hypotenuse² = 15.62² + 8²
hypotenuse² = 244 + 64 = 308
hypotenuse = 17.55
So, the longest pipe that would fit in that room would be 17.55 feet long.
