Bret buys a dining table that costs $150 before tax. The sales tax is 8%. How much sales tax did he pay?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

to find sales tax you multiply the cost by the percentage

you do 150 * 8%

thats also 150 * 0.08

150 * 0.08 is 12

so you pay $12 in tax

Answer 2

Bret paid $12 as sales tax.

What is a expression? What is a mathematical equation? What is Equation Modelling? What is denominator?

A mathematical expression is made up of terms (constants and variables) separated by mathematical operators. A mathematical equation is used to equate two expressions. Equation modelling is the process of writing a mathematical verbal expression in the form of a mathematical expression for correct analysis, observations and results of the given problem. In a fraction say (x/y), [y] is called denominator.

We have Bret buys a dining table that costs $150 before tax. The sales tax is 8%.

Assume that he paid $[x] as sales tax. Then, we can write -

[x] = 8% of 150

[x] = (8/100) x 150

[x] = 12

Therefore, Bret paid $12 as sales tax.

What is 2,200 yards in miles? Round to the nearest tenth of a mile.

Answers

Answer:

1.25 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we want to convert a yard into feet; recall 1 yard = 3 feet.

Then we want to divide that by the number of feet in a mile 1 mile = 5280feet.

So 2200*3 =6600, then divide by 5280

6600/5280 = 1.25 mi

2200 yard is 1.25 miles

There are 1.3 miles in 2,200 yards.

What is unit conversion?

It is the conversion of one unit to another unit with its standard conversion.

Examples:

1 hour = 60 minutes

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 km = 1000 m

We have,

2,200 yards ____(1)

1 mile = 1760 yards _____(2)

Now,

From (1) and (2),

1 mile = 1760 yards

Multiply 2,200/1760 on both sides.

2,200/1760 x 1 mile = 2,200/1760 x 1760 yards

1.25 miles = 2,200 yards

Rounding to the nearest tenths.

1.3 miles = 2,200 yards

Thus,

There are 1.3 miles in 2,200 yards.

Carol has some dimes and quarters. If she has 31 coins worth a total of $4.30, how many of each type of coin does she have?

Answers

Answer:

23 Dimes and 8 Quarter.

Step-by-step explanation:

Important info:

31 Coins worth a total of $4.30

Note:

Dimes = .10

Quarters = .25

10 Dimes = 1.00

4 Quarter = 1.00

Question to Answer:

How many of each type of coin does she have?

Solution:

Lets get rid of the .30 cent in $4.30 so

.30 = 3 Dimes

Now $4.00,

4.00-1.00 of quarter

=

3.00 and 4 quarter..

Right now we have 3 Dimes and 4 Quarter = $1.30.

And that 7 Coins worth of $1.30.

3.00-2.00= 1.00 and 20 Dimes so now we have

23 Dimes and 4 Quarter.

And that add up to 27.

1.00-1.00 of Quarter = 4 Quarter.

so 31 worth a total of $4.30.

So that's 23 Dimes and 8 Quarter.

Check Work:

23 Dimes = $2.30 and 8 Quarter = $2.00

$2.30 + $2.00 = 4.30

Hence, The Correct Answer is 23 Dimes and 8 Quarter.

Jessica received a $80 gift card for a coffee store. She used it in buying some coffee that cost $7.76 per pound. After buying the coffee, she had $33.44 left on her card. How many pounds of coffee did she buy?

Answers

Answer:

Set up an equation

80 dollars is what we started off with

$7.76 per unknown pounds is the money you used

Jessica is left with 33.44 now

80 - 7.76x = 33.44

-80               -80

-7.76x = -46.56

/-7.76    /-7.76

x = 6 pounds

ANSWER: she bought 6 pounds of coffee

EXPLANATION:

first let’s see how much she spent on coffee. To do this subtract the amount she has left for what she started out with.

80 - 33.44 = 46.56

That’s how much she spent on coffee.

We know coffee is 7.76 per pound so we just need to divide the amount she spent by the coast per pound.

46.56 divided by 7.76 = 6

So she bought six pounds.

The length of a rectangle is 3 less than twice the width. If the perimeter is 18 cm, what is the area? Show your work and solve using either substitution or elimination.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

1) "The length of a rectangle is three more than twice the width." This can be written in a math sentence as  

L = 2W + 3

 where "twice the width" is 2W and "three more" is just adding 3.

 2) "Perimeter is 36 inches". Recall the formula for the perimeter of a rectangle

 P = 2W + 2L

  set the formula to 36 and that gives us our second equation: 36 = 2W + L

then use substitution do solve

Answer:

The answer will be 144

Step-by-step explanation:

So first you going to do is solve 3^2 and that will give you 9.

Then you multiply 12*9 and that will give you 108 then you add 36 and that will give you 144.

Answer:

144

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this expression, use PEMDAS. This stands for Parentheses, Exponents, Multiplication and Division (from left to right), Addition and Subtraction (from left to right). Follow this order to solve any type of expression with no variables.

The first applicable step of PEMDAS is exponents. So, do 3^2.

12 x 9 + 36

Next, multiply 12 x 9

108 + 36

Finally, add the last terms

144

So, the final answer is 144.

Tell whether the ordered pair is a solution to the equation. Please show how you solved it.


(4, 4); y = -x + 8

Answers

Answer:

The ordered pair is a solution to the equation

Step-by-step explanation:

Plug the ordered pair into the equation as (x,y):

y = -x + 8

4 = -4 + 8

4 = 4

Since both sides are equal to each other, then the ordered pair is a solution to the equation.

Yes, it is a solution to the equation.

Plug in the values 4, for y, and 4, for x. Since there is a negative sign next to x, it turns 4 into -4. So, the equation will look like this: 4 = -4 + 8, add 8 to -4, and you get 4. 4 = 4. 4 = 4 is a true statement, so the pair IS a solution to the equation. Hope this helps!
