Take the total cost of the meal ($32.92) and multiply it by 5% (.05)
once you multiply those together you get how much tax is which is $1.65 (rounded up from 1.646)
now add that to your total and you get $34.57.

Drew invests $70.00. It earns 50% interest annually.
VladimirAG [237]

Step-by-step explanation:

50% interest annually.

that means he gets 50% interest of the invested capital every year.

and that means he gets 50% of $70 in one year.

70 = 100%

1% = 100%/100 = 70/100 = $0.70

50% = 1%×50 = 0.7 × 50 = $35

he will earn $35 interest in one year.

as you noticed: 50% simply means 1/2 (as 100% stands for the whole).

A rubber ball is dropped onto a hard surface from a height of 9 feet, and it bounces up and down. At each bounce it rises to 80%
8_murik_8 [283]
There are 12 inches in a foot, so 9ft = 108in. Also, 80% = 0.8. Therefore the formula is: h(n) = 108 * 0.8^n. To find the bounce height after 10 bounces, substitute n=10 into the equation: h(n) = 108 * 0.8^10 = 11.60in (2.d.p.). Finally to find how many bounces happen before the height is less than one inch, substitute h(n) = 1, then rearrage with logarithms to solve for the power, x: 108 * 0.8^x = 1; 0.8^x = 1/108; Ln(0.8^x) = ln(1/108); xln(0.8) = ln(1\108); x = ln(1/108) / ln(0.8) = -4.682 / -0.223 = 21 bounces

For this case, what we should do is evaluate the function for different points within the range shown.
 We then have the following table:
 x      g(x) 
 -2    -9
 -1     3
  0     7
  1     3
  2    -9
  3    -29
  4    -57
 From where we observed that the average rate of change is:
 -13
 Answer:
 
the average rate of change of g over the interval [-2,4] is:

The height after t seconds of an object projected upward with an initial velocity of 48 feet per second from a 210-foot tower ca
svetlana [45]

Given:

The height h of an object after t seconds is

h=-16t^2+48t+210

The height of a neighboring 50-foot tall building is modeled by the equation h=50.

The time (t) when the object will be at the same height as the building is found to be t = –2 and t = 5.

To find:

The statement which describes the validity of these solutions.

Solution:

We have,

h=-16t^2+48t+210

Here, t is the time in seconds.

For t=-2,

h=-16(2)^2+48(-2)+210

h=-64-96+210

h=50

For t=5,

h=-16(5)^2+48(5)+210

h=-400+240+210

h=50

So, the value of h is 50 at t=-2 and t=5.

We know that time is always positive so it cannot be negative value. It means t=-2 is not possible.

The solution t = 5 is the only valid solution to this system since time cannot be negative.

Therefore, the correct option is C.
