Rocky purchased a guitar and Guitar Mart that was originally priced at $145.00. After tax, the final cost was $152.25. What was the percent of tax?

Answers

Answer 1

Given:

Original price = $145.00

Final cost = $152.25

To find:

The percent of tax.

Solution:

The formula for tax is:

Tax = Final cost - Original price

[tex]\text{Tax}=\$152.25-\$145.00[/tex]

[tex]\text{Tax}=\$7.25[/tex]

Formula for tax percentage is:

[tex]\text{Tax percent}=\dfrac{\text{Tax}}{\text{Original price}}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Tax percent}=\dfrac{7.25}{145.00}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Tax percent}=\dfrac{725.00}{145.00}[/tex]

[tex]\text{Tax percent}=5[/tex]

Therefore, the percent of tax is 5%.

What is the midpoint of line segment AB?

Answers

Answer:

( 3, 5.5 )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

( x1, y1 ) = ( 7, 3 )

Where,

x1 = 7

y1 = 3

Let,

( x2, y2 ) = ( - 1, 8 )

Where,

x2 = - 1

y2 = 8

Formula : -

Midpoint = ( x1 + x2 ) / 2, ( y1 + y2 ) / 2

Midpoint of AB

= ( - 1 + 7 ) / 2, ( 8 + 3 ) / 2

= 6 / 2, 11 / 2

= ( 3, 11 / 2 )

= ( 3, 5.5 )

Kim sold christmas pies for 5.00$ each. She earned 156 how many pies she sold also let x repersent the number of pies, x, kim sold

Answers

Answer: 31.2 pies

Step-by-step explanation:

Kim sold pies for $5.00 each and earned $156 from doing so.

The number of pies she sold to get to this was x pies.

The formula for doing so is therefore:

5 * x pies = 156

5x = 156

x = 156 / 5

What is the height of the cone below? ​

Answers

The height of the cone is h = 27

Formula:-

Step 1:-

The volume of the cone is  V=\frac{1}{3} (base)(height)V=31(base)(height)

Given volume is V= 45 in^ 3

Given base of the cone is B= 5 in^2

Step 2:-

by using formula, we get solution

45 = \frac{1}{3} (5)(h)45=31(5)(h)

cross multiplication, we get

\frac{45 x 3}{5} =h545x3=h

now simplification, the height of the cone is h = 27

sauce: brainly

Answer:

27 in.

Step-by-step explanation:

Firstly, let's look at what we do know. We need to find the height of a cone and we know the area of the base (B) and we know the volume of the cone.

The first step is to determine the radius of the base, which we can use later.

The area of a circle is A = π r^2, so when we plug in the given information

5 = π r^2

And now we can solve for the radius

5/π = r^2

√(5/π) = r

r = 1.26

Now that we have the radius of the base, we can find the height of the cone using the volume formula.

V = π r^2 (h/3)

45 = π (1.26)^2 (h/3)

45 = π (1.59) (h/3)

45/(1.59π) = h/3

9.01 = h/3

3(9.01) = h

h = 27 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

4 4/17 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

In one hour Jacob can paint 1/9 of the fence

In one hour Molly can paint 1/8 of the fence

This equation can determine how long it would take if they worked together:

1/9x + 1/8x = 1

multiply each term by lcm of 72 to eliminate denominators to get:

8x + 9x = 72

17x = 72

x = 72/17

Write an inequality for the graph.​

Answers

Answer:

h(x) ≥ |x - 5| +1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given graph represents an absolute function (parent function)

f(x) = |x|

Since, graph of the function 'f' has been shifted 5 units to the right new function will be,

g(x) = f(x - 5)

g(x) = |x - 5|

Again function 'g' is shifted 1 unit upwards along the y-axis then the new function will be,

h(x) = g(x) + 1

h(x) = |x - 5| + 1

There is a shaded region representing the solution area lying above the intersecting dark lines,

Therefore, solution region will be re[presented by the inequality,

h(x) ≥ |x - 5| + 1

AB is parallel to ED.

ACD and BCE are straight lines.

AB = 8 cm

AC = 4.8cm

BC = 6.4cm

ED = 20 cm

Work out the length of BE.​

Answers

Answer:

BE = 22.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Δ CAB and Δ CDE are similar , then ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

[tex]\frac{CB}{CE}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{AB}{DE}[/tex] , substitute values

[tex]\frac{6.4}{CE}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{8}{20}[/tex] ( cross- multiply )

8 CE = 128 ( divide both sides by 8 )

CE = 16 cm

Then

BE = BC + CE = 6.4 + 16 = 22.4 cm

The diagram shows a solid triangular prism. Height 6cm width 4cm length 10cm the prism is made from wood with a density of 0.8 g/cm3 work out the mass of this prism

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The mass of the given triangular prism with a density of 0.8 g/cm³ is 96 grams.

What is the volume of a prism?

The volume of a prism is the total space occupied by it.

What is the density of a prism?

The density of a prism is the mass occupied by the 1 cubic unit volume of the prism. The formula for the density of a prism is:

Density = Mass/Volume

How do we solve the given question?

In the question, we are given a triangular prism of height 6cm, width 4cm, and length 10cm. Its density is given as 0.8 g/cm³.

We first find the volume of the prism.

The volume = Area of triangle*length = ((1/2)*6*4)*10 cm³ = 120 cm³.

Let the mass of the prism be m grams.

We know the density of the prism is given by the formula,

Density = Mass/Volume

or, 0.8 = m/120

or, m = 120*0.8

or, m = 96

∴ The mass of the given triangular prism with a density of 0.8 g/cm³ is 96 grams.
