17. A television costs $270.25 including 15% sales tax. How much of the cost is tax?

Mathematics
1 answer:
ella [17]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

Below in bold.

Step-by-step explanation:

The 15% is calculated on the cost before tax, $x.

So x + 0.15x = 270.25

1.15x = 270.25

x = 270.25/1.15

= $235.

So 270.25 - 235

= $35.25 was sales tax.

A golf ball is hit in not the air represented by the equation y= -3x^2+18x+45. The maximum height the ball will reach is____ fee
Temka [501]

Answer:

72 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to get the maximum height the ball will reach

the maximum height the ball will reach is equal to the y-coordinate of the vertex of the equation

So we need firstly, the vertex of the given quadratic equation

The vertex can be obtained by the use of plot of the graph

By doing this, we have it that the vertex is at the point (3,72)

Thus, we can conclude that the maximum height the ball can reach is 72 ft

What is the sum of the matrices shown below?
damaskus [11]

Answer:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&9\\5&-2\end{array}\right] +\left[\begin{array}{cc}6&0\\-8&4\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}9&9\\-3&2\end{array}\right]

Step-by-step explanation:

To add matrices, we add the corresponding components.

The given matrices is

\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&9\\5&-2\end{array}\right] +\left[\begin{array}{cc}6&0\\-8&4\end{array}\right]

We add the corresponding components to get;

\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&9\\5&-2\end{array}\right] +\left[\begin{array}{cc}6&0\\-8&4\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}3+6&9+0\\5+-8&-2+4\end{array}\right]

We simplify to get:

\left[\begin{array}{cc}3&9\\5&-2\end{array}\right] +\left[\begin{array}{cc}6&0\\-8&4\end{array}\right]=\left[\begin{array}{cc}9&9\\-3&2\end{array}\right]

Write the equation of a line that is perpendicular to -2/7x+9 that passes through the point (4, -6)
Anna11 [10]

Answer:

7y + 2x + 34 = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The gradient for perpendicular, m = -2/7

The formular equation, y - y1 = m(x - x1)

The equation of line through (4, -6) is:

y - (-6) = -2/7(x - 4)

y + 6 = -2x/7 + 8/7

7y + 42 + 2x - 8 = 0

7y + 2x + 34 = 0

What is the distance between -2 1/2, -5 3/4
Leviafan [203]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

it's kinda confusing b/c of the minus signs.. huh...  but -5 is less than -2 sooo

start with

-2 1/2  - (-5 3/4 )

=5 3/4 - 2 1/2

=5 3/4 - 2 2/4

=23/4 - 10/4

=13/4

there you go...  :)

if you want it back in proper fractions
