Answer:

$\boxed {\boxed {\sf \$62.81}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the sales tax, multiply the price by the tax rate.

$sales \ tax=price * tax \ rate$

The price of the TV is $750 and the tax rate is 8.375%, but we must convert it to a decimal. Divide by 100 or move the decimal place two spots to the right.

8.375/100=0.08375 or 8.3750⇒.8375⇒ 0.08375

Substitute the values into the formula.

$sales \ tax= 750*0.08375\\sales \ tax= 62.8125$

Round to the nearest cent, which is the hundredth place. The 2 in the thousandth place tells us to leave the 1.

$sales \ tax = 62.81$

The sales tax on the TV is approximately $62.81.

Options are given

Answer:

4(1.5 * 16.50) + (1.5 * 9.60)

$113.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Last year:

Cost of full page ad = $16.50

Cost of half page ad = $9.60

50% increase in ad price this year :

Price, this year :

Full page = 1.50 * 16. 50 = $24.75

Half page = 1.50 * $9.60 = $14.4

Expression :

4(1.5 * 16.50) + (1.5 * 9.60)

Cost of a 4 and 1/2 page ad :

Full page = 4 * $24.75 = $99

Half page = 1 * $14.4 = $14.40

Total cost = $(99 + 14.40) = $113.40

At LaGuardia Airport for a certain nightly flight, the probability that it will rain is 0.17 and the probability that the flight

mezya [45]

Answer:

100 - (Probability for raining + Probability for fight delay + Probability for Raining and fligth delay ) = Probability for no rain and flight on time.

So, 100-(0.17+0.16+0.07) = Probability for no rain and flight on time.

100-(0.40) = Probability for no rain and flight on time.

99.60=Probability for no rain and flight on time.

Alex wants to have $2,500 in his bank account after 2 years. If the account earns 5% interest compunded 2 times per year, how mu

natka813 [3]

$A=P(1+ \frac{r}{n})^{nt}$
A=futurer amount
P=present amount
r=rate in decimal
n=number of times compounded per year
t=time in years

A=2500
r=0.05
n=2
t=2

$2500=P(1+ \frac{0.05}{2})^{(2)(2)}$
$2500=P(1+ 0.025)^{4}$
$2500=P(1.025)^{4}$
$2500=P(1.025)^{4}$
divide both sides by [tex} 1.025^{4} [/tex]
