Answer:

The family paid $55.12 in sales tax. TOTAL= $148.82 + $55.12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>IMPORTANT FORMULA: To convert a percent to a number, you need to divide by 100. </u>

Therefore, 8% = 8/100 = 4/50 = 2/25

The family paid a total of $689 without sales tax or tips.

8% of $689 would equal the amount that the family paid for sales tax.

We already found what 8% is equal to and keep in mind that the word "of" means multiplication.

2/25 * $689 = sales tax

$55.12 = sales tax  

PART B) Now we have to find the total amount the family paid.

We have to add $689 with sales tax and tips.

We have to find tips.

Using the formula <u>To convert a percent to a number, you need to divide by 100. </u>

20% = 20/100 = 2/10 = 1/5

1/5 * ($689 + $55.12) = tips

tips = $148.82

TOTAL= $148.82 + $55.12

I need help with a problem with solving by square roots in quadratic equation.
Readme [11.4K]

To solve for x, first, we add 3 to the given equation:

\begin{gathered} 2(x+5)^2-3+3=44+3, \\ 2(x+5)^2=47. \end{gathered}

Dividing by 2, we get:

(x+5)^2=\frac{47}{2}.

Therefore:

x+5=\pm\sqrt{\frac{47}{2}}.

Finally, subtracting 5 we get:

x=\pm\sqrt{\frac{47}{2}}-5.

Answer:

x=\operatorname{\pm}\sqrt{\frac{47}{2}}-5.

You randomly pick two numbers from 1 to 9 (including 1 and 9). A number that is chosen once could be chosen again. If at least o
Mnenie [13.5K]
Assume that you only include whole numbers (1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9) and not 3.5 and such
so if 1 is odd and less than 5 then it is
1 or 3, since 5 isn't included
then the other number, to be less than 5 when added,
must be
1+x<5
3+x<5
solve each
1+x<5
subtract 1
x<4
set of answers are 1,2,3

3+x<5
subtract 3
x<2
set of answer is 1
so the possible numbers are
1,2,3
that is 3 numbesr out of 9 so
probability=(total desired outcomes)/(total possible outcomes) so
disred outcomes=3
total possible=9
3/9=1/3
the probabiltiy is 1/3
