The sales tax in Kadisha's state is 5%. Kadisha says she computes a 15% tip by multiplying the tax shown on her bill by 3. For a

bill with a tax charge of $.38, Kadisha's tip is $.38 times 3 = $1.14. Why does Kadisha's method work?

Explanation:

Kadisha's method works because 15% is 3 times 5%, and both amounts are computed on the amount of the bill before tax is added.

A robotic machine fills containers with an acid solution at the rate of 50 + 5 t milliliters (mL) per second, where t is in seco

Alika [10]

Answer:

12,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The machine fills the containers at a rate of 50+5t milliliters (mL) per second.

Therefore, the rate of change of the number of containers, N is:

$\dfrac{dN}{dt}=50+5t, 0\leq t\leq 60$

$dN=(50+5t)dt\\$Taking integrals of both sides\\\int dN=\int (50+5t)dt\\N(t)=50t+\frac{5t^2}{2}+C $(C a constant of integration)\\\\When t=0, , No containers are filled, therefore:$ N(t)=0\\0=50(0)+\frac{5(0)^2}{2}+C\\C=0\\$Therefore, N(t)=50t+2.5t^2$

When t=60 seconds

$N(60)=50(60)+2.5(60)^2\\N(60)=12000$ mL$

Therefore, 12,000 milliliters of acid solution are put into a container in 60 seconds.

Use the figure below to identify angles and segment lengths

slega [8]

So Angle GEN and FED are vertical angles, which means that their angles are congruent. Therefore, Angle FED is 60°

Angle GEN and DEN are a linear pair, which means that they are supplementary angles (add up to 180). To find Angle DEN, we have to form the equation: 60 + DEN = 180

For this, all you have to do is subtract 60 on both sides, and your answer will be: DEN = 120°
