SOLUTION

From the question given, the cost of the toy truck is $36.50 before tax.

Now, the store selling the toy truck adds a 6% sales tax. This means

\begin{gathered} 6\%\times36.50 \\ =\frac{6}{100}\times36.50 \\ =\frac{6\times36.50}{100} \\ =\frac{219}{100} \\ =2.19\text{ dollars} \end{gathered}

Now, we will add this $2.19 to the initial cost, we have

2.19+36.50=38.69

This gives $38.69.

Finally we will do a discount of 10%. 10% discount is

\begin{gathered} 10\%\times38.69 \\ \frac{10}{100}\times38.69 \\ =\frac{10\times38.69}{100} \\ =\frac{386.9}{100} \\ =3.869 \end{gathered}

We will then subtract this 3.869 from 38.69, we get

\begin{gathered} 38.69-3.869 \\ =34.821 \end{gathered}

That is 34.821. The 1 which is the last number at the decimal part is less than 5, so we ignore it and our answer becomes $34.82

Are the triangles similar why or why not?
Tamiku [17]

Answer: No, the triangles are not similar. They aren't even triangles.

Step-by-step explanation: A is a diamond, which cannot be considered a triangle until it is split in half. 8 and 9 would be a triangle if the diamond wouldn't have been there. B and C is a parallelogram.

How do I do this I really don't understand anything here
Lera25 [3.4K]

The red arrows show that the lines are parallel, but using the stuff given you can make an equation.
its hard to explain without drawing but starting from the 60 if you can make a Z you will get alternate angles and that mean that the given equation MUST be equal to 60. So,

8x-4=60

8x=60+4

8x=64

x=64/8

x=8 (is your answer)

hope you understand
