A student spends $55.50 on school supplies at a store where the sales tax is 8%. What is the total cost of the supplies?

You would add 4.40 to 55.50 to get 59.90. because the sales tax is 8% which is 0.08 cents and multiply that by 55 to get 4.40

8 0

55.50 = .08 * w
55.50 * .08 = 4.44
55.50 + 4.44 = $59.94
w= $59.94 is the total cost of the supplies

a volley ball player servers the ball. The ball follows a path given by the equation y=-0.01x^2+0.5x+3 where x and y are measure

dolphi86 [110]

Answer:

(a)

Distance from player should be 13.82 feet or 36.2 feet

(b)

The ball will go over the net

Step-by-step explanation:

we are given

The ball follows a path given by the equation

$y=-0.01x^2+0.5x+3$

where

x and y are measured in feet and the origin is on the court directly below where the player hits the ball

(a)

net height is 8 ft

so, we can set y=8

and then we can solve for x

$8=-0.01x^2+0.5x+3$

$8\cdot \:100=-0.01x^2\cdot \:100+0.5x\cdot \:100+3\cdot \:100$

$800=-x^2+50x+300$

$-x^2+50x-500=0$

$x^2-50x+500=0$

we can use quadratic formula

$x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}$

$x=\frac{-50\pm \sqrt{50^2-4\left(-1\right)\left(-500\right)}}{2\left(-1\right)}$

$x=5\left(5-\sqrt{5}\right),\:x=5\left(5+\sqrt{5}\right)$

$x=13.82,x=36.2$

So, distance from player should be 13.82 feet or 36.2 feet

(b)

we can plug x=30 and check whether y=8 ft

$y=-0.01(30)^2+0.5(30)+3$

$y=9ft$

we know that

height of net is 8 ft

so, the ball will go over the net

Angle ABC has point E on ray BA and point D on ray BC. Points E and D are equidistant from point B. To copy angle ABC, which of

arsen [322]

The identified for the construction is the endpoint of rays BA and BC option (C) is correct.

<h3>What is an angle?</h3>

When two lines or rays converge at the same point, the measurement between them is called a "Angle."

It is given that:

Angle ABC has point E on ray BA and point D on ray BC.

Points E and D are equidistant from point B.

The ED distance because if the distance between E and D is even slightly different, the entire angle ABC will vary.

Thus, the identified for the construction is the endpoint of rays BA and BC option (C) is correct.

1. Jill had the following scores on quizzes. 1 quiz: 1 3 quizzes: 2 4 quizzes: 3

Irina-Kira [14]

The mean score is 3.08.

There is 1 quiz with score 1, so 1 point; 3 quizzes with score 2 for 3*2 = 6 points; 4 quizzes with score 3 for 4*3 = 12 points; 4 quizzes with score 4 for 4*4 = 16 points; and 1 quiz with score 5 for 5 points.

This is a total of 1+6+12+16+5 = 40 points.

This is out of 1+3+4+4+1 = 13 quizzes.

40/13 = 3.08
