Answer:

The flip flops cost $25.56 after the discount and tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of flip flops is $30. This is our starting amount.

The tax will be applied on the price the flip flops are bought for. This means we must apply the discount first.

The discount is 20%. Let's find what the flip flops were sold for.

If the discount is 20%, the flip flops were sold for 80% of their original price. Let's find 80% of 30.

80% of 30 = ?

0.80 • 30 = ?

= 24

The flip flops were sold for $24.

Now we have to apply a 6.5% tax. To find the amount of money added to the total, we need to find 6.5% of 24.

6.5% of 24 = ?

0.065 • 24 = ?

= 1.56

The tax was $1.56.

We need to add the tax to the discounted price.

1.56 + 24 = ?

= 25.56

The flip flops cost $25.56 after the discount and tax.

Hope this helps!

Answer:

  • 1) 4812 students
  • 2) 763 pounds
  • 3) $30906.76

Step-by-step explanation:

1)

  • Initial number = 2988
  • Rate of increase = 10%

<u>Number of students after 6 years:</u>

  • a_6 = 2988(1+0.1)^{6-1} = 4812

2)

  • Initial number = 1200
  • Rate of decrease = 14%

<u>Amount of gold after 4 years:</u>

  • a_4=1200(1-0.14)^3 = 763

3)

  • Initial number = 28000
  • Rate of increase = 2.5%

a)

<u>Salary after n years:</u>

  • a_n=28000(1+0.025)^{n-1} = 28000*1.025^{n-1}

b)

<u>Salary in the 5th year:</u>

  • a_5=28000*1.025^4 = 30906.76

Find the HCF and LCM of 4x^2 - 36 ,2x^2 - 12x + 18 and 2x^2 + x - 21​
olga_2 [115]

Answer:

(x-3), 4 (x - 3)^2 (x + 3) (2 x + 7)

Step-by-step explanation:

Factor all the expressions,

1st expression= 4x^2 - 36=4(x^2-9)=4(x+3)(x-3)

2nd expression=2x^2 - 12x + 18 =2(x^2-6x+9)=2 (x - 3)^2=2(x-3)(x-3)

3rd expression=2x^2 + x - 21​=(x - 3) (2 x + 7)

HCF=Commo factor=(x-3)

LCF=Common factor*Remaining factor=4(x+3)(x-3)(x-3) (2 x + 7)=4 (x - 3)^2 (x + 3) (2 x + 7)

How do we find 4and1/4 hours after 11:20pm?
tigry1 [53]

there are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so 1/4 of an hour is 60(1/4), namely 15 minutes.


11:20pm + 4 hours, is 11+4:20, namely 15:20, of course the time system only uses up to 12, so that has to be 3:20, and then we add the 15 minutes.


11+4: 20 + 15.........3:35am.
