1)The price of a pair of boot was reduced from $80 to $60. By what percentage

Mathematics
1 answer:
Elan Coil [88]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

1) 25%

2) $17.54

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The boots were reduced from $80 to $60, therefore the total amount they were reduced by in terms of money is $20. To find out what percentage $20 is of $80, you divide.

20/80 = 0.25

0.25 = 25 % (to change a decimal to a percentage, you multiply by 100)

2) 20% = 0.20 (to change a percentage to a decimal, you divide by 100)

To find 20% of $87.70, multiply 0.20 by 87.70.

87.70 x 0.20 = 17.54

\text{State Income Tax Rate: }6.65\%, \\\text{Deduction: }\$7,702.03

Answer:

State income tax: 6.65\%

Step-by-step explanation:

Based on the interface, it seems like you have chosen lawyer as a career with the given salary of $115,820.

The chart given for state income tax is broken into two categories:

$21,400-$80,650 => 6.45%

$80,651-$215,400 => 6.65%

Since the chosen career's salary is $115,820, the career falls into the second range of 6.65% state income tax.

The deduction is simply the amount of money taxed. For a 6.65% state income tax, the deduction can be found from:

115,820\cdot 0.0665=\boxed{\$7,702.03}

(X1 +X2 / 2 , Y1 + Y2 / 2)

In other words, 
(9 + -3 / 2 , -7 +5 / 2)
(6 / 2 , -2 / 2)
(3 , -1)

Your midpoint is (3, -1)

Of the cartons produced by a company, 8% have a puncture, 7% have a smashed corner, and 0.7% have both a puncture and a smashed
Viktor [21]

Answer:

The probability that a randomly selected carton has a puncture or a smashed corner is 0.143

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that P(A∪B) = P(A) + P(B) - P(A∩B).

    since given that P(A) = Probability of getting puncture = 0.08

                                P(B) = probability of getting smashed corner = 0.07

                       P(A∩B) = probability of getting both puncture and smashed corner = 0.007

                    P(A∪B) = probability of getting any of them

   so P(A∪B) = 0.08 + 0.07 -0.007 = O.143
