Answer:

<em>The washing machine cost $600 before tax</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages </u>

The washing machine cost $651 including a tax of 8.5%.

If x was the cost of the washing machine before tax, then the tax was:

x*8.5/100 = 0.085x

It was added to the original price:

x + 0.085x = 1.085x

That is the final price, thus

1.085x=$651

Solving:

x = $651/1.085

x = $600

The washing machine cost $600 before tax

The designer sketched a model of the pond. The model drawing had a circumference of 24 inches. What is the AREA of the model she
Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

Area of model pond = 45.6 inch² (Approx.)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Circumference of circular pond = 24 inches

Find:

Area of model pond

Computation:

Circumference of circle = 2πr

Circumference of circular pond = 2πr

24 = 2[22/7][r]

Radius r = [24 x 7] / [2 x 22]

Radius r = 3.81 inch (Approx.)

Area of circle = πr²

Area of model pond = πr²

Area of model pond = (22/7)(3.81)²

Area of model pond = [3.1428][14.5161]

Area of model pond = 45.6 inch² (Approx.)
