\cos(\theta)= \frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse}

From the question, the side of the right angle triangle that is adjacent to the measured <a,(i.e BAC) is AC=24 and the hypotenuse is AB=25

PLEASE ANSWER CORRECTLY
inn [45]

Answer:

$76.32

Step-by-step explanation:

First, add up all the costs for everything:

17 + 30 + 25 = 72

Now, we need to add the sales tax. To do this we multiply 72 by 1.06. This is because the sales tax is 6% (the decimal form of 6% is 0.06), and we add it on to the 100% cost (which is 1 in decimal form).

(72)(1.06) = 76.32

Therefore the total cost of everything Walter bought plus the tax rate is $76.32.
