Answer:

soln,

price of textbook = $40

tax% = 10%

now,

tax amount = 10% of $40

= 10\100*40

= 10*4/10

= 40/10

= $4.

again,

final price = cost of textbook+tax

=$40+$4

=$44.

Step-by-step explanation:

so the total price of a Textbook is $40 which is 100% and the tax is 10% so you need to find tax from the price of the textbook which is 10% of the price of the textbook then add the price of the textbook with the tax amount which is the final cost .

Answer:

The equation is;

y = -1/4x + 607.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us have the number of drops as y axis while the number of minutes is x axis

The points to use are;

(30,600) and (130,575)

The slope can be calculated using;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)

= (575-600)/(130-30) = -25/100 = -1/4

So the equation as we model using the normal equation of a straight line (y = mx + c, m is slope and c is the intercept)

y = -1/4x + c

To get c, we simply substitute one point

Let us use (30,600)

We have

600 = -1/4(30) + c

600 + 7.5 = c

c = 607.5

So the equation is ;

y = -1/4x + 607.5

Reil [10]

Answer:

a) 30.726m/s and b) 5.5549s

Step-by-step explanation:

a.) What was Chris Huber’s speed in meters per second(m/s)?

Given the distance and time, the formula to obtain the speed is

$v=\frac{d}{t}$ .

Applying this to our problem we have that

$v=\frac{200m}{6.509s}= 30.726m/s$ .

So, Chris Huber’s speed in meters per second(m/s) was 30.726m/s.

b) What was Whittingham’s time through the 200 m?

In a) we stated that $v=\frac{d}{t}$ . This formula implies that

$t=\frac{d}{v}$ .

First, observer that $19\frac{km}{h} =19,000\frac{m}{h}=\frac{19,000}{3,600}m/s= 5.2777m/s$ .

Then, Sam Whittingham speed was equal to Chris Huber’s speed plus 5.2777 m/s. So, $v=30.726\frac{m}{s} +5.2777\frac{m}{s}= 36.003 m/s.$

Then, applying 1) we have that

$t=\frac{200m}{36.003m/s}=5.5549s.$

So, Sam Whittingham’s time through the 200 m was 5.5549s.

Answer choice d

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the volume of this triangular prism, you first need to find the area of the triangular base. The formula for the area of a triangle is bh/2, which in this case is 3*2/2=3 square units. Multiplying this by the height of the prism, 3.5, you get a total of 10.5 cubic inches, or answer choice d. Hope this helps!
