Answer:

Total items = $39.90

Sales tax amount = $3.7905

Total cost = $43.691

The clerk's error is using 9.5 as sales tax amount instead of finding 9.5% of the total items

Step-by-step explanation:

Dress = $24.95

Skirt = $14.95

steps the clerk completed.

Step 1: 24.95 + 14.95 = 39.90

Step 2: 39.90 +9.5 = 49.40

Correct steps:

Total items = dress + skirt

= $24.95 + $14.95

= $39.90

Sales tax = 9.5%

Sales tax amount = 9.5% of total

= 9.5/100 × $39.90

= 0.095 × 39.90

= $3.7905

Total cost = Total + sales tax amount

= $39.90 + $3.7905

= $43.6905

To the nearest hundredth

= $43.691

Sales tax is the amount of money imposed by government on the sales of some items

Total cost is the cost of all items including sales tax

Trava [24]
In here, we could write an equality as x – 12 < 65. In solving inequalities, we follow the same rule as solving algebraic expressions. We will transpose 12 to the other side, giving us x < 65 + 12. Simplifying, we have x < 77. Geraldo must have a bill less than $77 in order for him not to spend more than $65.

Pleaseeee help me. I'm stuck on a math question.

The slope of the function for pronghorn antelope is 60.78 which infers that the rate of speed of the pronghorn is 60.78 miles per hour.

7) The given function that represents the speed of the pronghorn is

y = 60.78x - 5.4

Comparing this function with the general equation of a straight line

y = mx + c we can conclude that the slope of the function is 60.78 .

So the Pronghorn's rate of speed is 60.78 miles per hour.

8) Now the speed of the cheetah is given in the form of a table.

Let us take any two points on the graph

(0.5,21.85) and (2,118.60)

Slope of the line passing through these two points

= (118.6-21.85)/(2-0.5)

=64.5

So the slope of the graph is 64.5 and the average rate of speed of the Cheetah is 64.5 miles per hour.

9) From the above two slopes and the rate of speed we can conclude that the speed of the cheetah is 64.5 mph which is greater than that of the pronghorn 's speed of 60.78 miles per hour.
