What is the final cost of your $15 umbrella with 6% tax?

Answer: $15.90

Step-by-step explanation:

15*0.06=.90 +15=15.90

In order to solve this problem, you need to first change 6% to a decimal. 6 divided by 100 is 0.06. Then, you need to multiply that by 15 to figure out the amount in tax. Finally, you need to add 15 dollars with 90 cents to get $15.90

Hi, What is the lowest positive integer greater than 1, which when divided by 5 or 8 leaves a remainder of 1

ludmilkaskok [199]

Very interesting question!

Let's try to get something that would work for just 5 for now.
Any of these numbers would leave a remainder of 1 when divided by just 5:
6, 11, 16, 21, 26, 31, 36, 41, 46, 51, 56, 61, 66, 71, 76, 81, 86, ...
Notice that they all look like 5*(something) + 1. Basically, they are all multiples of 5 plus 1.

Let's see what would work for just 8:
9, 17, 25, 33, 41, 49, 57, 65, 73, 81, 89, ...

Are there any matches... AHA! It's 81. This is the lowest positive integer greater than 1 that follows the rule for both 5 and 8.

Help ? Pls ???????? Don’t know

Anni [7]

Answer:

y=-3x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

y=mx+b is the formula you are going to end up once completed.

This, by given two points:

(4,-5) (3,-2)

$\frac{-2-5}{3-4}$ = Point-Slope Intercept Form

$\frac{3}{-1}$ = After subtracting both from above

-3 = is your slope, decreasing.

Substitute -3 for y=mx+b

y=-3x+b

Use one of the given points (any) to find what b equals.

(4,-5)

x y

-5=-3(4)+b

-5= -12+b

7=b

Final Equation:

y=-3x+7

2. Carl needs 15 hours longer than Jennifer to paint a room. If they work together, they can complete the job in 4 hours. Explai

nasty-shy [4]

Answer:

Jennifer would complete the job on her own in 5 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Solving a quadratic equation:

Given a second order polynomial expressed by the following equation:

$ax^{2} + bx + c, a\neq0$ .

This polynomial has roots $x_{1}, x_{2}$ such that $ax^{2} + bx + c = a(x - x_{1})*(x - x_{2})$ , given by the following formulas:

$x_{1} = \frac{-b + \sqrt{\Delta}}{2*a}$

$x_{2} = \frac{-b - \sqrt{\Delta}}{2*a}$

$\Delta = b^{2} - 4ac$

Rates

The together rate is the sum of their separates rate.

We have that:

Jennifer takes x hours to complete the job on her own, so her rate is 1/x.

Carl needs 15 hours longer than Jennifer, that is, 15 + x hours, so his rate is 1/(15+x).

The together rate is 1/4. So

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{1}{x} + \frac{1}{15+x}$

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{15 + x + x}{x(15+x)}$

$\frac{1}{4} = \frac{15 + 2x}{x(15+x)}$

Applying cross multiplication.

$x^2 + 15x = 4(15 + 2x)$

$x^2 + 15x = 60 + 8x$

$x^2 + 7x - 60 = 0$

Quadratic equation with $a = 1, b = 7, c = -60$ . So

$\Delta = 7^{2} - 4*1*60 = 289$

$x_{1} = \frac{-7 + \sqrt{289}}{2} = 5$

$x_{2} = \frac{-7 - \sqrt{289}}{2} = -12$

Since the time to complete the job has to be a positive value.

Jennifer would complete the job on her own in 5 hours.
