Answer:

<h3>t=$1627.5</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

given data

price of computer= $1500

sales tax= 8.5%

Step two

Let us compute the amount in tax

tax= 8.5/100*1500

=0.085*1500

=$127.5

Let the total cost be t

hence

t=1500+0.085*1500

t=1500+127.5

t=$1627.5

Ramona and Beezus love to read books. Ramona reads 16 less than 5 times the number of books Beezus reads. Ramona reads 134 books
Fittoniya [83]
I think the answer is 30, because if 134 +16 is 5 times the number of books Beezus reads, than just divide by 4 for the answer of 30

Set up an equation and solve the following problem.
nordsb [41]

Answer:

The speed of Dave is 42 miles per hour

The speed of Kent is 46 miles per hour .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The distance cover by Dave = d = 210 miles

The time taken by Dave = t hour

The speed of Dave = s miph

<u>Again</u>

The distance cover by Kent = D = 230 miles

The time taken by Kent = T hour

The speed of Kent = S = (s + 4 ) miph

<u>For Dave</u>

Time = \dfrac{\textrm Distance}{\textrm Speed}

So, t = \dfrac{\textrm d miles}{\textrm s miph}

Or, t = \dfrac{\textrm 210 miles}{\textrm s miph}

<u>For Kent</u>

Time = \dfrac{\textrm Distance}{\textrm Speed}

So, T = \dfrac{\textrm D miles}{\textrm S miph}

Or, T = \dfrac{\textrm 230 miles}{\textrm (s + 4) miph}

∵ Time taken by both is same

So, t = T

Or,  \dfrac{\textrm 210 miles}{\textrm s miph} = \dfrac{\textrm 230 miles}{\textrm (s + 4) miph}

Or, 210 × (s + 4) = 230 × s

Or, 210 × s + 210 × 4 = 230 × s

Or, 210 × 4 = 230 × s -210 × s

Or, 210 × 4 = 20 × s

∴  s = \dfrac{840}{20}

i.e s = 42 miph

So, The speed of Dave = s = 42 miles per hour

Again

The speed of Kent = S = (s + 4 ) miph

i.e S = 42 + 4

or, S = 46 miph

So, The speed of Kent = S = 46 miles per hour

Hence,The speed of Dave is 42 miles per hour

And The speed of Kent is 46 miles per hour . Answer

For consumers making purchases online, 60% have devices made by Apple, 85% own a smartphone, and 75% use Venmo. Also, out of the
kompoz [17]

Answer:

The probability that a customer selected at random has an Apple device or own a smartphone or both is 0.94

Step-by-step explanation:

The percentage of costumers that have a device made by Apple = 60%

The percentage of customers that own a smartphone = 85%

The percentage of customers that use Venmo = 80%

The percentage out of the smartphone users that use Venmo = 80%

The probability both independent events A and B occurring = P(A) × P(B)

The exclusive probability of A or B occurring P(A XOR B) = P(A) + P(B) - 2 × P(A ∩ B)

Therefore, the probability of A or B or both occurring is given as follows;

P(A or B or Both) = P(A) + P(B) - 2 × P(A ∩ B) + P(A) × P(B)

Where A represent the percentage of costumers that have a device made by Apple and let B represent the percentage of users that have a smartphone, we have;

P(A or B or Both) = 0.6 + 0.85 - 2×0.6×0.85 + 0.6 × 0.85 = 0.94

Therefore, the probability that a customer selected at random has an Apple device or own a smartphone (or both), P(A or B or Both) = 0.94
