Answer:

$43.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Formula : c=p(1+r)

r is in decimals

Where c is the final cost of the item

p is the price of the item before tax.

Now we are supposed to find the final cost of a $40 item after an 8% tax is applied

So, r = 8% = 0.08

p = $40

Substitute the values in the formula :

c=40(1+0.08)

So, c=43.2

Hence  the final cost of a $40 item after an 8% tax is applied is $43.2

The airplane in the scale drawing has a wingspan of a feet and a tail span of b feet. If the tailspin in the drawing is 2 inches
xeze [42]

Correct answer is: actual wingspan of airplane is 6 inches.

Solution:-

We are given that wingspan is 'a' feet and tail span is 'b' feet in a scale drawing.

And we are also given that tail span is 2 inches that is b=2 inches and \frac{a}{b}=3

Let us plugin the b value in above equation.

\frac{a}{2}=3

Multiplying with 2 on both sides.

a=3X2=6 inches.

Hence actual wingspan of airplane is 6 inches.
