The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
$43.20
Explanation:
The formula we have is
c = p(1+r), where c is the total cost, p is the price of the item before tax, and r is the tax rate written as a decimal. This formula comes from the fact that adding a percent tax to the cost of an item takes 100% of the price and adds r% to it; this is why we multiply the price by (1+r).
Since our tax rate is 8%, r = 8% = 8/100 = 0.08. The price of the item is $40. Using this information, we have:
c = 40(1.08) = $43.20
Hello!
Okay, so first we need to add like terms... so first, add the terms with the same variables. That gives us:
9x + 7y + 4 + y
Now add 7y and y
That gives us:
9x + 8y + 4
This can't be added anymore... this is as far as we can go because they are no longer like terms.
Step-by-step explanation:
The total probability that the DeLorean makes the trip is:
P = P(engine) × P(at least 1 time circuit) × P(at least 2 capacitors)
P = P(engine) × (1 − P(0 time circuits)) × P(at least 2 capacitors)
P = 0.94 × (1 − ₄C₀ 0.75⁰ 0.25⁴) × (₃C₂ 0.8² 0.2¹ + ₃C₃ 0.8³ 0.2⁰)
P = 0.94 × (1 − 0.25⁴) × (0.384 + 0.512)
P = 0.83895
The reliability of the DeLorean is approximately 83.9%.
