Answer:

$11.9

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given;

The cost of the cell phone is $170

Tax rate is 7%

We are required to find how much tax is paid on the cell phone.

The tax rate is 7% of the cost of the cell phone

That is;

7% of $170

also; 7/100 of $170

Thus, tax paid = 7/100 × $170

                        = $11.9

Thus, the tax paid on the cell phone is $11.9

Quadrilateral KMPT is dilated by a scale factor of 3/4 to create K'M'P'T'. The perimeter of quadrilateral KMPT is x units. What
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

B) \frac{3}{4} x units

Step-by-step explanation:

Let quadrilateral KMPT be a rectangle with dimensions 12 units by 8 units. Then its perimeter would be equal to:

Perimeter of a rectangle = 2 (l + b)

where: l is the length = 12 units and b is the breadth = 8 units. So that:

Perimeter of KMPT = 2 (12 + 8)

                               = 40 units

Dilating KMPT by a scale factor of \frac{3}{4} would create K'M'P'T' of dimensions; \frac{3}{4} × 12 units by \frac{3}{4} × 8 units. Thus, the dimensions of K'M'P'T' would be 9 units by 6 units.

Perimeter of K'M'P'T' = 2 (l + b)

                                  = 2(9 + 6)

                                  = 30 units

Comparing the perimeters of KMPT and K'M'P'T', the perimeter of K'M'P'T' would be  \frac{3}{4} × perimeter of KMPT.

Therefore, if the perimeter of KMPT is x units, then;

         perimeter of K'M'P'T' = \frac{3}{4} * x units

                                            = \frac{3}{4}x units

At a local college, of the male students are smokers and are non-smokers. Of the female students, are smokers and are non-smoker
natima [27]

Answer: Our required probability is 0.88.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Number of male students are smokers = 10

Number of male students are non smokers = 490

total number of male students = 500

Number of female students are smokers = 40

Number of female students are non smokers = 363

Total number of female students = 403

Probability that both are non smokers is given by

P(Non-smoker\ male)\times P(Non-smoker\ female)\\\\=\dfrac{490}{500}\times \dfrac{363}{403}\\\\=0.98\times 0.9\\\\=0.88

Hence, our required probability is 0.88.

How u do dis ............
Norma-Jean [14]

i’ll try to help.

angle 3 and angle 1 are congruent angles, so they both equal 75°.

angle 1 and angle 5 are corresponding angles, so they both equal 75°. (it’s bc they’re positioned the same.

soooo the answer to that is 75° for angle 5. (not really great at explaining) also hope that the answer is right it should be.
