Answer:

  $27.54

Step-by-step explanation:

The straightforward way to do this is to compute the tax and total on each amount, then add those together. There is an easier way.

  ($12.50 + 0.08·12.50) + ($13.00 + 0.08·13.00) = $12.50·1.08 +13.00·1.08

  = 1.08($12.50 +13.00)

  = 1.08·$25.50

  = $27.54

Together, Ron and Harry paid a total of $27.54.

A wedding planner uses 72 ivy stems for 18 centerpieces when she arrives at the venue she realizes she will only need 16 centerp
beks73 [17]

Answer:

64 ivy stems

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem we can use rule of three:

Firstly we had 72 ivy stems to use in 18 centerpieces, and know we have 16 centerpieces and want to know how many ivy stems we need to use, so:

18 centerpieces -> 72 ivy stems

16 centerpieces -> X ivy stems

18/16 = 72/X

X = 16*72/18 = 64

He needs to use now 64 ivy stems to maintain the ratio.

If b is the midpoint of ac, ac=cd, ab=3x+4, ac=11x-17, and ce=49, find de
IrinaK [193]

First, we draw our line.

 

|------------------------------------------------------------------------------------|

a                                                                                                            e

 

 

Next, break up this line into segments using the information.

 

|----------------------|----------------------|--------------------|------------------|

a                            b                            c                         d                      e

 

 

The entire line is 29.

 

ab + bc + cd + de = ae

ab + bc + cd + de = 29

 

You also know that

 

bd = bc + cd

 

 

Due to midpoint theorem,

 

ab = bc

cd = de

 

 

Then,

 

2ab + 2cd = 29

 

 

The equations we will use are

 

bd = bc + cd                       eq1

2bc + 2cd = 29                   eq2

 

 

Dividing both sides of the equation in eq2 yields

 

bc + cd = 14.5

 

bd = bc + cd

bd = 14.5
