Answer:

5.61; 8.5 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax = $1.87 per $22 meal

For a $66 meal,

Tax = 66 × 1.87/22

Tax = 3 × 1.87

Tax = $5.61

=====

Tax rate = 1.87/22 × 100

Tax rate = 0.085 × 100

Tax rate = 8.5 %

The percent of working students increased 8.1 to 40.5 what was the present prior to increase

Dmitrij [34]

Answer:

32.4

Step-by-step explanation:

prior + 8.1 = 40.5 . . . . . . seems to model the problem statement

prior = 32.4 . . . . . . . subtract 8.1 from both sides

Prior to the increase the percent was 32.4.

_____

Comment on the problem statement

When you're talking about a percentage increase in a percentage, it is almost never clear whether you're talking about the percentage of the underlying number, or the percentage of the percentage.

Here, we assume the 8.1 is a percentage of working students, not a percentage of the percentage of workings students. If you actually intend the latter, the percentage before the increase was about 37.465%.

There is a balcony that forms part of a circle around a stage, and they need to put up a safety railing. How long of a railing d

alexandr1967 [171]

A sector is a part of a circle that is formed by two radii, and an arc. So that the length of the safety railing required is 31.4 feet.

A sector is a part of a circle that is formed by two radii, and an arc, thus forming a central angle.

Thus the required length of safety railing can be considered as the arc of the sector.

So that;

length of an arc = (θ / $360^{o}$ ) * 2 $\pi$ r

where θ is the measure of the central angle of the sector, and r is the radius of the sector.

From the given question, θ = 45°, and r = 40 feet.

So that,

length of the safety railing = (45° / $360^{o}$ ) * 2 * 3.14 * 40

= 0.125 * 2* 3.14* 40

length of safety railing = 31.4

Therefore, the length of the safety railing required is 31.4 feet.
