Mr. Smith paid $36.36 for a carpet. This amount includes a tax of 10%. What was the cost of the carpet before tax?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

32.72

Step-by-step explanation:

36.36/100

0.3636

0.3636 times 90 (I use 90 because 100-10=90) 10% tax, so 90% original cost.

Answers

Answer: (-4, 6)

Step-by-step explanation:

for this question, we can use the substitution method. this is where we substitute the coordinates in the answer choices into the given system of inequalities or equations to determine which one is true.

1. (-4,6)

x + 4y > 12

-4 + 4(6) > 12

20 > 12 is true

now we can substitute the second inequality.

3(6) > -4 + 6

18 > 2 is true, therefore making this set of points true.

it may be helpful to substitute the rest of the values of x and y into the inequalities to verify your answers :

5 + 4(2) > 12

5 + 8 > 12

13> 12 is true

3(2) > 5 + 6

6 > 11 is not true

the rest of the answer choices are also not true.

350 people visited a zoo the zoo has four types of tickets the manager wants a sample of size 30, stratified by ticket type. how man teenagers should be in the sample *see attached*

Answers

Answer: 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Total number of visitors = 350

Sample size = 30

Number selected from each strata is given by:

(Strata size ÷ Total population) × sample size

From the cumulative frequency distribution :

Child - 90

Teen - (210 - 90) = 120

Adult - (350 - 210) = 140

Senior = 0

Strata size of teen = 120

Therefore, number of teen selected is ;

(120 ÷ 350) × 30

a cyclist rides his bike at a rate of 10 miles per hour. what is this rate in kilometers per hour? how many kilometers will the cyclist travel in 4 hours? in your computations assume that 1 mile is equal to 1.6 kilometers. DO NOT ROUND YOUR ANSWER

Answers

Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

speed of cyclist = 10 miles per hour

given 1 mile is equal to 1.6 kilometres.

1*10 miles will be equal to 1.6*10 kilometres

thus , 10 mile is equal to 16 kilometres

using 16 km in place of 10 miles in 10 miles per hour

we have

speed of cyclist = 16 kilometres per hour

we know that distance = speed * time

speed is 16 kilometres per hour

time 4 hours

thus , distance = 16*4 kilometres= 64 kilometres.

cyclist will travel 64 kilometres in 4 hours.

$50.88 - $3.05 = $47.83

Answers

Answer:Choose the statement that is not true based on these diagrams. answer= m∠A = m∠2

The statement that is not true based on these diagrams will be;

⇒ m ∠A = m∠2

What is mean by Triangle?

A triangle is a three sided polygon, which has three vertices and three angles which has the sum 180 degrees.

Given that;

In Triangle ABC,

⇒ Angle C is 108 degrees and angle B is 34 degrees.

Now,

Since, In Triangle ABC,

⇒ Angle C is 108 degrees and angle B is 34 degrees.

Hence, We get;

⇒ m ∠A + m ∠B + m ∠C = 180°

Substitute all the values, we get;

⇒ m ∠A + 34° + 108° = 180°

⇒ m ∠A + 142° = 180°

⇒ m ∠A = 180° - 142°

⇒ m ∠A = 38°

Thus, The incorrect statement is,

⇒ m ∠A = m∠2

Answers

Answer:

Answer:

1.25kg icing

3.75kg butter

3kg caster sugar

2.75kg flour

25 eggs

Step-by-step explanation:

Above is 6 ingredients that is all part of your answer, but you show 300/12 as your first step in workings , the rest is multiplying by 25 as shown here.

300/12 = 25

25 x 50 = 1250g = 1.25kg

25 x 150 = 3750g = 3.75kg

25 x 120 = 3000g = 3kg

25 x 110 = 2750g = 2.75kg

25 eggs

11. The chess club has 50 members. They want to raise $680 for a trip to a competition. The school will give $130. How much must each member pay?

Answers

Answer:

$11

Step-by-step explanation:

Total members = 50 ,    Raised amount = $680

If school gives $130 then all the 50 members will pay the remaining amount.

Remaining amount to be paid by the 50 members = $680 - $130 = $550

50 members = $550

1 member = $550/50

1 member = $ 11 ( Answer)

Solve: 2 ln 3 = ln(x - 4) x = 9 x = 10 x = 13

Answers

Solve:  2 ln 3 = ln(x - 4)

a)x = 9

b)x = 10    

c)x = 13

Answer:

x = 13

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve the problem above, we will follow the steps below;

2 ln 3 = ln(x - 4)

[using logarithm rule  aInb =  Inbᵃ]

so also our equation becomes

In 3² = In (x-4)

The In at the left-hand side of the equation will cancel-out the In at the right-hand side of the equation

Our equation becomes;

3² = x- 4

9 = x-4

add 4 to both-side of the equation in other to make x subject of the equation

machines work together, how long will it take them to produce 6,500 shirts? If necessary,
round your answer to the nearest whole number.

Answers

Answer:

250Min

Step-by-step explanation:

1st machine = 2520 divided by 180min =14shirts/min

2nd machine =1440 divided by 120min =12 shirts/min

14 shirts/min +12shirts/min =26shirts/min

6500 shirts divided by 26shirts/min =250min

The answer is 250 minutes.

What is the rounding of decimals?

Rounding of decimals refer to the rounding of decimals to certain accuracy. Process of rounding of decimals ; put simply , if the last digit is less than 5, round the previous digit down. However, if it is greater than 5 then round the previous digit up.

Given, The first machine can produce 2,520 shirts in 180 minutes.

So, the first machine is making 2520 / 180 = 14 shirts per minute.

And The second machine can produce 1,440 shirts in 120 minutes.

So, the second machine is making 1440 / 120 = 12 shirts per minute.

If the both machines work together then both are making 14 + 12 = 26 shirts per minute.

To take them to produce 6500 shirts , both will take 6500 / 26 = 250 minutes .

Hence the answer is 250 minutes.

If OP=17 and QP=6, what is OQ? First, complete the Segment Addition Postulate for this problem.

OQ + QP= BLANK?

Fill in what you know and solve for OQ

OQ= BLANK?

Answers

Answers:

OQ + QP = OP

OQ = 11

============================================================

Explanation:

The smaller pieces OQ and QP glue together to form the larger segment OP. This is effectively what the Segment Addition Postulate says. This only works if all three points are on the same single line segment.

We know that OP is 17, so QP = 6 adds to the other unknown piece to get 17. The other piece must be 11 units long. Algebraically you could write,

OQ + QP = OP

OQ + 6 = 17

OQ + 6-6 = 17-6 ... subtracting 6 from both sides

OQ = 11

OQ is 11 if OP=17 and QP=6. This is obtained by using Segment Addition Postulate.

What is Segment Addition Postulate ?

If Q is between O and P, then OQ + QP = OP.

Find OQ + QP and OQ:

Given, OP=17 and QP=6

According to Segment Addition Postulate,

OQ + QP = OP

OQ + 6 = 17

OQ= 17-6 =11

OQ = 11

OQ + QP =17 and OQ = 11

Hence the value of OQ is 11 when OP is 17 and QP is 6.
