In the question it is already given that 4 items are being purchased and their individual rates are also given. the percentage of tax that needs to be paid is also given. To find the total amount of tax that has to be paid, you can either calculate the taxes on individual items and then add them or you can add the total amount required for the 4 items and then calculate the tax. Both will yield the same result but the second process is easier.
Cost of all the 4 items purchased = (2.50 + 8.75 + 3.00 + 10.25)
= 24.50
Percentage of tax that needs to be paid = 6%
Amount of tax that needs to be paid = (6/100) * 24.50
= 147/100
= 1.47
So the amount of tax that needs to be paid is 1.47.
Answer:
2nd choice:
x int: 11/6
y int: 11/2
Step-by-step explanation:
put 6x + 2y = 11 into y = mx+b form to find y intercept. (b stands for the y int)
you get y = -3x + 11/2.
now you can graph with this.
plug 0 in for y and solve for x to find x int
0 = -3x + 11/2 then solve
Answer:
base = 18.89
legs = 16.89
Step-by-step explanation:
x + x + 68 = 180
2x + 68 = 180
2x = 112
x = 56
The altitude = 14
Tan(56) = opposite / adjacent
adjacent = base
opposite = altitude
Tan(56) = opposite / base Multiply both sides by the base
base * Tan(56) = opposite Divide by Tan(56)
base = opposite / Tan(56)
base = 14/tan(56)
base = 9.443
The base is actually twice this length because the altitude lands on the midpoint of the opposite side and is perpendicular to the third side (base).
base = 18.886
Legs are the hypotenuse formed by 1/2 the base and the attitude.
Sin(56) = opposite / hypotenuse
Sin(56) = altitude / hypotenuse
hypotenuse = altitude / Sin(56)
hypotenuse = 14 / sin(56)
hypotenuse = 16.887
Rounded
base = 18.89
legs = 16.89
Answer:
x is 2.88 which can be rounded up to 2.9
Step-by-step explanation:
Subtract 2/3x from 5x.
Add 1/2 to 12.
Simplify and put into calculator (y=) to double check.
