Mathematics
1 answer:
madreJ [45]2 years ago

Answer:

<em>The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

The procedure to add a percentage ratio p to a given quantity q is:

* Calculate the increase as i = p*q/100

* Add the increase to the original quantity to get the final quantity f=q + i

It's given the sales tax rate in New Mexico is p=5.125%. A pair of pants in New Mexico costs q=$30 before tax.

* The increase (tax) is i = (5.125*30)/100 = $1.54

* The price after tax is f = $30 + $1.54 = $31.54

The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54

5. Answer: see explanation

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

If the roots are m and 3m, then x = m and x = 3m

⇒ x - m = 0    and      x - 3m = 0

⇒ (x - m)(x - 3m) = 0

⇒ x² - 4mx + 3m² = 0

Since x² + px + q = 0   then  p = -4m   and q = 3m²

3p² = 3(-4m)²               16q = 16(3m²)

      = 3(16m²)                      = 48m²

      = 48m²

3p² = 48m² = 16q     ⇒           3p² = 16q

6. Answer: 8 or 18

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

The Area of the entire rectangle (A = L × w) is 12 × 10 = 120

The Area of the shaded region is 72, so the Area of the non-shaded region is 120 - 72 = 48.

There are two non-shaded triangles.

  • Bigger non-shaded Δ: L = 12-x, w = 10  ⇒ A = \dfrac{10(12-x)}{2}
  • Smaller non-shaded Δ: L = x, w = x ⇒ A=\dfrac{x(x)}{2}

Combine the Areas of both triangles and set it equal to the Area of the non-shaded region:

\dfrac{x(x)}{2}+\dfrac{10(12-x)}{2}=48\\\\\\\dfrac{x^2}{2}+\dfrac{120-10x}{2}=48\\\\\\\dfrac{x^2-10x+120}{2}=48\\\\\\x^2-10x+120=96\\\\x^2-10x+24=0\\\\(x-4)(x-6)=0\\\\x - 4 = 0\quad or\quad x-6=0\\x=4\qquad or\qquad x=6\\\\\text{Based on the image provided, it appears that the x-value will be the}\\\text{smallest of the two possible solutions (4), but both solutions are valid.}

Area of ΔBEF:

\text{when x = 4, A =}\ \dfrac{4(4)}{2}=\dfrac{16}{2}=8\\\\\\\text{when x = 6, A =}\ \dfrac{6(6)}{2}=\dfrac{36}{2}=18

Tell the measure of the angles In degrees 1/4
n200080 [17]

Answer:

so 1/4 of a circle is 90 degrees 1/4 is equal to 90 over 360 C it's 90 parts of 360. so here we go with this one. this angle is 20 degrees remember that's 90 alright the square one and this little part would be 20 degrees each angle appears wider as the Rays get longer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let me know if this help's you lol :)
