Answer:
$37.97
Step-by-step explanation:
The price of the shoes before tax is 100% of the price of the shoes.
Then the tax adds 5.5% of the price of the shoes to the price of the shoes.
He ends up paying 100% + 5.5% of the price of the shoes.
100% + 5.5% = 105.5%
Now we find 105.5% of $35.99.
105.5% of $35.99 = 1.055 × $35.99 = $37.96945
Answer: $37.97
What we know is that a 6 foot tall tent casts a 15 foot shadow. Lets represent that given this way: 6 = 15
So, the unknown (y), or what we want to know, is how tall the cardboard box if it has a 6 foot long shadow (noticeably the same height as the tent):
y = 6
6 = 15
y = 6
(6 x 6) / 15 = y
36 / 15 = y
2.4 = y
The height of the cardboard box is 2.4 feet.
