Answer:

$74.8

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1: apply the discount to the price

12% = .12

$79.97 X .12 = $9.5964

$79.97 - $9.5964 = $70.3736

step 2: apply tax

$70.3736 X .0625 = $4.39835

$70.3736 + $4.39835 = $74.77195

step3: round

$74.8

ok so if you have 3 and 1/4 pizza and want to subtract 3/4 out of it,and get 3x more slices then you had from a friend after sub
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

You have 2 and 1/2 pizzas and your friend has 5/6 of a pizza.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have 3 1/4 pizzas. If you get rid of 3/4 of a pizza, you will end up with 2 2/4 pizzas.

To make it easier, you can just change the values into improper fractions: 3 1/4 = 13/4

13/4 - 3/4 = 10/4

10/4 = 2 2/4 pizzas

(2 2/4 = 2 1/2)

Anyways! You now have 2 and a half pizzas. You have 3 times the amount of pizza that your friend has. In other words, your friend has 1/3 the amount of pizza that you have. You can solve for this in two ways, whichever way you solve it is up to you.

  1. You can solve this problem by dividing the amount of food you have by 3: \frac{2\frac{1}{2} }{3} which equals 0.8333... (the 3 is repeating). But you can just keep your final answer in fraction form if you want to: \frac{2.5}{3} = \frac{5}{6}
  2. You can solve this problem by multiplying 1/3 to the amount of food you have: \frac{1}{3} * 2 \frac{2}{4}\\=\frac{10}{12}\\ =\frac{5}{6}

You have 2 and 1/2 pizzas and your friend has 5/6 of a pizza.

Alex is creating an outdoor structure out of two 12 foot boards. The boards must have an angle of elevation
Whitepunk [10]

Answer:

5.0 ft - 5.6 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the structure is to be made using two 12 foot boards, then we expect the total perimeter to be equal to (2*12)= 24 ft.

Using the angle of elevation, 40° and the width of 8 ft then you can apply the formula for tangent of a triangle where ;

Tan α = opposite side length/adjacent length

Tan 40°= h/8

h= 8 tan 40° = 6.71 ft

Applying the cosine of an angle formula to find the length of the sliding side

Cosine β = adjacent length /hypotenuse

Cosine 40°= 8/ sliding side length

sliding side length = 8/cosine 40° =10.44 ft

Checking  the perimeter = 10.44 +8+6.71= 25.15 ft

This is more than the total lengths of the boards, so you need to adjust the height as;

24 - 18.44 = 5.56 ft ,thus the height should be less or equal to 5.56 ft

h≤ 5.6 ft
