Answer:

  • $345

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Let the price before tax be x, then we have:</u>

  • x + 8% = 372.60
  • x + 0.08x = 372.60
  • 1.08x = 372.60
  • x = 372.60 / 1.08
  • x = 345

The initial price was $345

Jasmine borrowed $15,000 for 8 years and she paid $6,600 in interest. What was the interest rate for Jasmine's loan?
weeeeeb [17]

Answer:

5.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the interest rate, use the equation:  I = prt

I = Interest = $6,600

p = principal = $15,000

r = rate = unknown

t = time = 8 years


Now plug the numbers into the equation.

6,600 = 15,000 * r * 8

6,600 = 120,000 * r


Now isolate the variable by dividing both sides of the equation by 120,000.

0.055 = r


Now change the rate to a percent by moving the decimal point 2 digits to the right.

5.5% = r   OR   r = 5.5%

Answer:

C = 28.9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the right angled triangle, ∆BCD, you are required to find the measure of angle C.

Apply the trigonometric ratio formula to find m < C.

Adjacent side = 7

Hypotenuse = 8

Trigonometric ratio formula to apply would be:

cos(C) = \frac{7}{8}

cos(C) = 0.875

C = cos^{-1}(0.875)

C = 28.9
