Answer:

Price of Caleb's groceries before tax= $6.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let price of groceries before tax be = $ x

Sales tax % = 2.5%

Sales tax applied = 2.5\% \ of\ x = \frac{25}{100}\times x = \frac{25}{100} x

Actual sales tax paid = $1.60

∴ \frac{25}{100}x=1.60

Multiplying both sides by 100.

100\times \frac{25}{100}x=1.60\times 100

25x=160

Dividing both sides by 25.

\frac{25x}{25}=\frac{160}{25}

x=6.4

∴ Price of groceries before tax= $6.4

Orion is constructing a rectangular box. The base of the box is a piece of wood with an area of 90 square inches. The volume of
gladu [14]

The volume of a rectangular prism is the product of the three dimensions.

The width and length give the base area,  which is 90.

So, if we multiply the base area and the height, we get the volume:

w\cdot l\cdot h = V \implies h = \dfrac{V}{w\cdot l}

We know that V=1080 and w*l (i.e. the base area) is 90. So, we have

h=\drac{1080}{90}=12

What is the answer!!! 35.00 for a jacket. 10% discount 5% sales tax whats the final cost? PLEASE HELP ME
ASHA 777 [7]
Firstly, you should find the discount that is taken off of the jacket, and then also find the sales tax.
As the discount is 10%, you simply have to divide 35 by 10. 35/10= 3.50.
Therefore, you need to subtract the 3.50 from the 35, which gives you 31.50. You've then got the 5% sales tax to add on, which is 3.50/2= 1.75, you've then got to add 1.75 to 31.50, which gives you 33.25.
However, if the sales tax is on the discounted price, then it will be 31.50/10= 3.15/2= 1.58, and you've then got to add this is to discount price, which is 31.50+1.58= 33.08

Hope this helps :)

True or false: Outliers can cause data sets to be skewed.

True - since the outlier is way off it will cause your average to mess up which is why we test multiple times to make sure we are more accurate with our numbers
