<h3>Answer: 4 dollars and 17 cents</h3><h3>This is the same as saying $4.17</h3>

====================================================

Explanation:

15+35.50 = 50.50 dollars is the total before tax is applied.

Take 8.25% of this to get

0.0825*50.50 = 4.16625

and this rounds to 4.17, which is the amount of sales tax charged.

$4.17 = 4 dollars + 17 cents

---------

Extra info:

The grand total will be 50.50+4.17 = 54.67

Another way to get the grand total is to multiply 1.0825 by the previous subtotal (50.50) getting 50.50*1.0825 = 54.66625 and that rounds to 54.67

The multiplier 1.0825 effectively means "increase by 8.25%"

A few students conducted a study on how many peanuts it would take to completely fill a jar. They had the following data to help
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

370 peanuts

Step-by-step explanation:

65/108 = 0.60185

90/150 = 0.6000

In each case, the number of peanuts is either exactly or very close to 60% of the volume.

A cylinder with radius 3.5 cm and height 16 cm has volume:

V = (pi)r^2h

V = (3.14159)(3.5 cm)^2(16 cm)

V = 615.752 cm^3

We take 60% of the volume to estimate the number of peanuts.

60% * 615.752 cm^3 = 369.451

Answer: 370 peanuts

Write the quadratic function in standard form.<br> f(x) = -x2 + 2x + 4<br> f(x) =
goldenfox [79]

Answer:

f(x)=-1(x-2)^2+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The quadratic function is given as:

f(x)=-x^2+2x+4

The standard form of a quadratic function is given as:

f(x)=a(x-h)^2+k, where, 'a', 'h' and 'k' are real numbers.

Now, in order to convert the given function to standard form, we use completing by  square method.

-x^2+2x=-(x^2-2x)=-[(x-2)^2-2^2]=-[(x-2)^2-4]=-(x-2)^2+4

Now, f(x)=-x^2+2x+4 can be rewritten as:

f(x)=-(x-2)^2+4+4\\f(x)=-1(x-2)^2+8

Therefore, the standard form of the function is:

f(x)=-1(x-2)^2+8
