Answer:

$69.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, divide the tax rate by 100: 3%/100 = 0.0003 (tax rate as a decimal). Note: to easily divide by 100, just move the decimal point two spaces to the left.

Now, find the tax value by multiplying tax rate by the before tax price:

tax = 65 × 0.0003

tax = 4.88 (tax value rouded to 2 decimals)

Add tax to the before tax price to get the final price:

The final price including tax = 65 + 4.88 = 69.88

How many hours would someone earns 7.50 per hour have to work to earn $116.25

SCORPION-xisa [38]

Let h = amount of hours

$7.5h=116.25$

Since they earn $7.50 per hour, we can multiply that by an unknown amount of hours to get $116.25. Let's solve:

$7.5h=116.25$

Divide both sides by 7.5 to isolate the h, amount of hours.

$\frac{7.5h}{7.5}=\frac{116.25}{7.5}$

Simplify.

$h=15.5$

In conclusion, someone would have to work 15.5 hours to earn $116.25 if they earn $7.50 per hour.

A disc jockey wants to select 4 songs from a new cd that contains 12 songs. How many ways can the disc jockey choose four songs?

WARRIOR [948]

I suppose a DJ wants to select 4 different songs, then there are: 12*11*10*9 = 11880 ways to choose them.

If the order of the songs he plays doesn't matter, there are: $\frac{12 * 11 * 10 *9 }{4!} = 495$ ways to choose them.
