Answer:

$60 was the price of Zoe's dinner, before sales tax and tip.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Sales tax = 11% * original price = 0.11 * x= 0.11x
  • Tips for dinner = 20% * original price = 0.20 * x = 0.2x
  • 0.11x + 0.2x = 18.60
  • 0.31x = 18.60
  • x = 60
  • $60 was the price of Zoe's dinner, before sales tax and tip.

Answer:

$60 was the price of Zoe's dinner, before sales tax and tip.

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Sales tax = 11% times original price = 0.11 times x= 0.11x

2. Tips for dinner = 20% times original price = 0.20 times x = 0.2x

3. 0.11x + 0.2x = 18.60

4. 0.31x = 18.60

5. x = 60

6. $60 was the price of Zoe's dinner, before everything else

A cylinder has a volume of 384 cubic inches and a height of 8 inches, what is the radius
Triss [41]
The answer is:  3.91 inches .
___________________________________________

Note:  Volume of cylinder: V = (base area) * (height);

in which: V = volume = 384 in.³ ;
              h = height = 8 in. ; 
              Base area = area of the base (that is; "circle") = π r² ;
                                         in which; "r" = radius; 
___________________________________________
Solve for "r" :
___________________________________________
 V = π r² * (8 in.) ; 

384 in.³ = (8 in.) * (π r²) ;
___________________________________________
Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by "8" ; 
___________________________________________
 (384 in.³) / 8 = [ (8 in.) * (π r²) in.] / 8 ; 
___________________________________________
 to get: 
___________________________________________
   48 in.³ = (π r²) in.² * in.   ;
___________________________________________
 ↔  (π r²) in.² * in. =  48 in.³  ;  
___________________________________________
Rewrite this equation; using "3.14" as an approximation for: π ;
__________________________________________________
 (3.14 * r²) in.² * in. =  48 in.³ 
_______________________________________
Divide EACH SIDE of the equation by:

"[(3.14)*(in.²)*(in.)]" ;  to isolate "r² " on one side of the equation; 
                                 (since we want to solve for "r") ;
_____________________________________________________
→ [(3.14 * r²) in.² * in.] / [(3.14)*(in.²)*(in.)]  = 48 in.³ / [(3.14)*(in.²)*(in.)] ; 
__________________________________________________
→ to get:   r² = 48/3.14 ;
________________________
      → r² = 15.2866242038216561 ;
_______________________________________
To solve for "r" (the radius; take the "positive square root" of EACH side of the equation:
__________________________________________________
     → +√(r²) = +√(15.2866242038216561)
__________________________________________________
     →  r = 3.9098112747064475286  ; round to 3.91 inches .

In which direction does the right side of this graph point? F(x)=3x^4-x^2+4x-2
kaheart [24]

Answer:

Positive direction (Up) \uparrow

Step-by-step explanation:

The given function is

f(x)=3x^4-x^2+4x-2

The degree of this polynomial is even.

The leading coefficient is positive 3.

The polynomial will <em>rise </em>\uparrow on the left and <em>rise </em>\uparrowon the right.

Therefore the right side of the graph of f(x)=3x^4-x^2+4x-2 points in the positive direction of the y-axis.

$60 is the original price and the sale price is $45 what is the percent discount
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

your discount would be 25

Step-by-step explanation:

start, first subtract 45 from 60 to find the amount of money taken off from the discount:

60-45

=15

Because 15 dollars have been taken off the original price, you can find the percent of discount by setting up this proportion where x represents the percent of discount:

15/60=x/100

Now, cross multiply and solve for x:

1500=60x

x=25

Therefore, your discount would be 25%.
