Answer:

2.80

Step-by-step explanation:

The discount is the regular price times the discount

discount = 19 *15%

discount = 2.85

The new price is the regular price minus the discount

new price = 19-2.85

                 =16.15

Now she has to pay the sales tax

tax = new price * tax rate

tax= 16.15 * 6.5%

     = 16.15 *.065

       =1.05

We add the tax to the new price to get the final price

final price = new price+tax

                = 16.15 +1.05

                =17.20

She pays with a 20 dollar bill

Change = payment - final price

              =20.00 - 17.20

              = 2.80

The lengths of the sides of a triangle are 5, 12, and 13. What is the length of the altitude drawn to the side with length equal
mario62 [17]

Answer:  using  A= bh/2   THe height is 9.23

Step-by-step explanation:  First, with the Right Angle at the bottom, usr the sides to compute the area:  12*5=60

THen Imagine the side=13 as the base, so you have  b=13 for the formula

use the formula A= bh/2

60 = 13h/2 ==> 2(60) =13h --> 120/13 = h

h = 9.23

Which statements are true about the trigonometric ratios of this triangle​
rosijanka [135]

Answer:

Options (1), (2), (3) and (4)

Step-by-step explanation:

By applying the sine and cosine rules in the given triangle,

sinθ = \frac{\text{Opposite side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

cosθ = \frac{\text{Adjacent side}}{\text{Hypotenuse}}

cos(30°) = \frac{AC}{AB}

              = \frac{11\sqrt{3} }{22}

              = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

sin(30°) = \frac{BC}{AB}

             = \frac{11}{22}

             = \frac{1}{2}

cos(60°) = \frac{BC}{AB}

              = \frac{11}{22}

              = \frac{1}{2}

sin(60°) = = \frac{AC}{AB}

              = \frac{11\sqrt{3} }{22}

              = \frac{\sqrt{3}}{2}

Options (1), (2), (3) and (4) are the correct options.

Ms. Hagan invested twice as much money in an account that pays 7% interest as she did in an account that pays 6% in interest. He
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Answer: She invested $5000 in an account that pays 6% interest and $10000 in an account that pays 7% interest.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P be the initial amount she invested in an account that pays 6% interest.

Then, amount invested in other account = 2P

Simple interest = Principal x rate x time

After one year, for the first account,

Interest = P(0.06)(1)  = 0.06P

For second account,

Interest = (2P)(0.07)(1)=0.14P

Total interest = 0.06P+0.14P=1000

\Rightarrow\ 0.20P=1000\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=\dfrac{1000}{0.20}\\\\\Rightarrow\ P=5000

2P = 2(5000)=10000

Hence, She invested $5000 in an account that pays 6% interest and $10000 in an account that pays 7% interest.
