20% is basically 0.20 in percentage.

So 20 x 0.20=4 (20% of 20 is 4)

So then you subtract 20-4 to get 16

The shirt is $16 before taxes are applied

Answer: You will pay $13.52 for this shirt.

Step-by-step explanation: 0.9435

Since the tax is 7.5%, you have to multiply 12.58 by 7.5% to find the amount of money paid as tax.

7.5% = 0.075

12.58 x 0.075 = 0.9435

Since we are dealing with money we have to round to the nearest hundredth -- 0.9435 = 0.94

Then to find the final cost of the shirt, we have to add 12.58 and 0.94 to get  $13.52.

There are 130 people in a sport centre. 73 people use the gym. 62 people use the swimming pool. 58 people use the track. 22 peop
Delvig [45]

Answer:

\frac{11}{87}

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of people = 130

Number of people who use the gym = 73

Number of people who use the pool = 62

Number of people who use the track = 58

Number of people who use the gym and the pool = 22

Number of people who use the pool and the track = 29

Number of people who use the gym and the track = 25

Number of people who use all three facilities = 11

Total number of people who use at least two facilities = 22 + 29 + 25 + 11 = 87

The probability that the randomly selected person uses all three facilities = number of those who use all three facilities ÷ total number of people who use at least two facilities.

==> 11 ÷ 87

==> \frac{11}{87}

If the area of a triangular kite is 6 square feet and its base is 4 feet, find the height
KonstantinChe [14]
The height of the kite is 3 feet. Here’s
why;
We know that BH=2A (base times height is equal to 2 times the area) of any given triangle.
Lets plug in values;
BH=2A
4(H)=2(6)
Then simplify;
4(H)=12
Flip the equation to find the missing value;
12 divided by 4 is 3.
Check your work;
4(3)=6(2):
12=12
The height of the kite is 3 feet.
