A certain backpack costs $22, and there is 4% sales tax. What is one way to determine what the amount of sales tax will be? Sele
Mademuasel [1]

Answer:

$0.88

cost per 1% = 22 ÷ 100 = 0.22

⇒ cost of 4% = 4 x 0.22 = 0.88

Or

4% = 4/100 = 0.04

The altitude of Death Valley California is 282 ft below sea level of hot air balloon is launched From The Bottom Of Death Valley
asambeis [7]

Answer:

177 ft below sea level.

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial altitude of the hot air balloon = 282 below sea level

Rate of rise of balloon = 10 ft / second

Time = 12 seconds

Total rise in 12 seconds = Rate of rise of balloon \times Time

\Rightarrow 10 \times 12 = 120 ft

Now, we will have to subtract to find the new altitude.

New altitude = 282 - 120 = 162 ft

Now, it is given that balloon Captain lowers the balloon 15 ft.

To find the final altitude, we will have to add it to the previous altitude.

Therefore, the final altitude = 162 + 15 = <em>177 ft below sea level </em>

Paint can be purchased in two sizes: 1 gallon for $45.99 or 1 quart for $14.99.(round to the hundredths place)a.unit ratio of 1
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

  a. $0.47 per ounce

  b. $0.36 per ounce

  c. the gallon size costs less per ounce

Step-by-step explanation:

A unit rate is a rate that is expressed with one unit in the denominator. That is, it is <some amount> per unit. The <some amount> value will generally depend on what unit is chosen. This problem suggests the desired unit is 1 oz of paint.

__

<h3>a.</h3>

Unit cost for a quart:

  ratio = cost/ounces = $14.99/(32 oz) ≈ $0.468/oz ≈ $0.47/oz

__

<h3>b.</h3>

Unit cost for a gallon:

  ratio = cost/ounces = $45.99/(120 oz) ≈ $0.359/oz ≈ $0.36/oz

__

<h3>c.</h3>

The cost per ounce is less for the gallon size. If at least 3 quarts of paint is needed, then buying it in the gallon size will cost less.

If less than 3 quarts are needed, then a gallon container will cost more than is necessary for the paint required. The "better deal" depends on the amount of paint required.
