5 0

Sales tax is an additional amount of money you pay based on a percentage of the selling price of goods and services that are purchased. For example, if you purchase a new television for $400 and live in an area where the sales tax is 7%, you would pay $28 in sales tax. Your total bill would be $428.88

What is the value of x in the right triangle below? Show your work and round your answer to the nearest hundredth.

navik [9.2K]

The length of the hypothenuse or the value of x is equal to 19.53

Data;

hypothenuse = x
adjacent = 11.2
opposite = 16

<h3>Pythagoras's Theorem</h3>

To solve this problem, we have to use Pythagoras's theorem which is used to find the missing side in a right angle triangle if we have at least two sides.

The formula for this is

$x^2 = y^2 + z^2\\$

Let's substitute the values and solve for the missing side

$x^2 = 16^2 + 11.2^2 \\x^2 = 256 + 125.44\\x^2 = 381.44\\x = \sqrt{381.44} \\x = 19.53$

The length of the hypothenuse or the value of x is equal to 19.53

The formula for the distance traveled over time t and at an average speed v. v times t. If Amit ran for 40 minutes at a speed of

lorasvet [3.4K]

Answer:

Thus, Amit ran 3.33 KM

calculation needed:

conversion of time (40 minutes to hour)

multiplying velocity and time (which we got in hours)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

to calculate the distance: . v times t

that is multiply v with t

where v is average velocity

t is the time

__________________________________

Given

v = 5 km/hour

time = 40 minutes

since speed is in Km per hour and also we have to find distance in km

lets convert time which in 40 minutes to hour

we know

60 minutes = 1 hour

1 minute = 1/60 hour

40 minutes = 40/60 hour = 2/3 hour

distance = v times t

distance = 5*2/3 = 10/3 = 3 1/3 km = 3.33 km

Thus, Amit ran 3.33 KM

calculation needed:

conversion of time (40 minutes to hour)

multiplying velocity and time (which we got in hours)

In 2000, a company had 1147 stores nationwide. By 2002, this total had grown to 1542. If the number of stores continues to gro

mr_godi [17]

12226 stores will be there in 2016

Solution:

The growth function is given as:

$y = a(1+r)^t$

Where,

y is the future value

a is the initial value

r is the growth rate

t is the number of years

From given,

In 2000, a company had 1147 stores nationwide

By 2002, this total had grown to 1542

Therefore,

y = 1542

a = 1147

t = 2000 to 2002 = 2 years

r = ?

Substituting we get,

$1542 = 1147(1+r)^2\\\\(1+r)^2 = \frac{1542}{1147}\\\\(1+r)^2 = 1.34437$

Taking square root of both sides

$1+ r = 1.1594\\\\r = 1.1594 - 1\\\\r = 0.1594$

If the number of stores continues to grow exponentially at the same rate, how many stores will there be in 2016?

Therefore,

y = ?

a = 1147

r = 0.1594

t = 2000 to 2016 = 16 years

Substituting we get,

$y = 1147(1 + 0.1594)^{16}\\\\y = 1147(1.1594)^{16}\\\\y = 1147 \times 10.6593\\\\y = 12226.3311 \approx 12226$

Thus 12226 stores will be there in 2016
