A man buys furniture that has a list price of $255. He is allowed a discount of 12%
but must pay a sales tax of 3% on the cost. Which of the following is the amount he
actually pays for the furniture:
(A) $217.67
(B) $231.13 (C) $224.40 (D) $232.50 (E)
none of these.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Option B. $231.13 is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

Listed price of furniture = P = $255

Discount = d = 12%

Sales tax = s = 3%

First of all, we have to find the discounted price by calculating the discount first

So,

[tex]Discount = 12\%\ of\ P\\= 0.12*255\\= 30.6[/tex]

Discounted Price:

[tex]= Listed\ Price - Discount\\= 255 - 30.6\\= 224.4[/tex]

The sales tax will be calculated on the discounted price

So,

[tex]Sales\ tax = 3\%\ of\ Discounted\ price\\= 0.03 * 224.4\\= 6.732[/tex]

Now,

[tex]Final\ price\ of\ furniture = Discounted\ price + Sales\ tax\\= 224.4 + 6.732\\=231.132[/tex]

He will actually pay $231.132 for the furniture.

Hence,

Option B. $231.13 is the correct answer.

Number graph ranging from negative five to five on the x and y axes. A line is drawn on the graph that passes through the labeled points begin ordered pair negative three comma negative one end ordered pair and begin ordered pair one-half comma two end ordered pair

Answers

Answer:

Option B 6x-7y = -11 is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write the equation of the given line in standard form.

The points are (1/2,2) and (3,1)

The equation used is:

[tex]y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})[/tex]

where m is the slope.

Finding slope :

[tex]m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

x₁= 1/2, y₁=2, x₂=-3, y₂=-1

Putting values:

[tex]m=\frac{-1-2}{-3-1/2} \\m=\frac{6}{7}[/tex]

Now taking point (1/2,2) and slope m = 6/7 finding equation:

[tex]y-y_{1}=m(x-x_{1})y-2=\frac{6}{7}(x-\frac{1}{2})\\ 7(y-2)=6(x-\frac{1}{2})\\7y-14=6x-3\\7y-6x=-3+14\\7y-6x= 11\\Multiply \,\,with\,\, -1\\-7y+6x=-11\\6x-7y=-11[/tex]

So, Option B 6x-7y=-11 is correct

Equation of this line in standard form:

6x − 7y = −11

Given points:

(-3, -1) ; (1/2 , 2)

We need to write the equation of the given line in standard form.

The points are (1/2,2) and (-3,-1)

The equation used is:

(y - y1) = m (x - x1)

m = slope = y2 - y1 /x2 - x1

Now,

(-3,-1) : (x1 , y1)

(1/2,2) : (x2 , y2)

m = slope = y2 - y1 /x2 - x1

m = 2- (-1)/ 1/2 - (-3)

m = 6/7

Substitute the values in the standard form,

y - (-1) = 6/7 [x- (-3)]

⇒6x−7y=−11

Hence

Equation of this line in standard form:

6x − 7y = −11

Angle DVF

The angles that have V as a vertex are:

[tex]\angle 3 \\\\\angle 4\\\\\angle DVF\\\\\angle DVE\\\\\angle EVF[/tex]

Recall:

A vertex of any angle is simply the corner of an angle that forms a V-shape.

Three points make up an angle

Letters can be used to represent the three points

The letter at the middle of the three letters is the vertex of the angle

Angles can be named using the numbers that are used in labelling the vertex of each angle

Thus, from the given image,

Each of the following angles has V as the vertex of its angle:

[tex]\angle 3 $ and $ \angle 4[/tex] has vertex V

[tex]\angle DVF, $ \angle DVE, $ and \angle EVF[/tex] has V as a vertex.

A juice factory offers its juice in both bottles and cans. A class of students on a field trip decides to compare the numbers on cases of bottled juice and canned juice that are packaged each minute. The students count the number of cases that are packaged on each assembly line over several minutes.

Answers

The unit rate for canned juice, in cases per minute is; 50 cases per minute is; cases per minute

How to find the unit rate?

From the attached file, we see that it is a graph showing canned juice on the y-axis and time taken in minutes on the x-axis.

Now, to find the unit rate also means to find the slope from 2 defined points. From the given graph, we will take the coordinates;

(1, 50) and (2, 100)

Thus;

Slope = (100 - 50)/(2 - 1)

Slope = 50 cases per minute

Thus, the unit rate for canned juice, in cases per minute is; 50 cases per minute.

C. 0.5

Step-by-step explanation:

If point B is nearest to zero and that far from three, it is going to be 0.5. Not to mention, you can estimate that point is about a half from one.

Answer:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

A - 3.6 is ahead of C, so nope

B - -0.2 is behind A, nope

C - 0.5 works because it seems reasonably distanced (closer to 0 than 3.5)

D - 2 is closer to 3.5, but point b is closer to 0.

Also, if you divide the section between A and C by 7, you can find that 0.5 works because it should be the first section of 0.5

A game room has a perimeter of 70 ft. The length is 5 more than twice the width. How many feet squared of new carpeting should be ordered?

Answers

Answer:

A = 250 square ft

Step-by-step explanation:

Equations

Let's call:

x = width of the game room

The length is 5 more than twice the width, thus:

2x+5 = length of the game room

The perimeter of a rectangle is twice the sum of the width and the length:

P = 2( x + 2x + 5 )

And the perimeter is 70 ft:

2( x + 2x + 5 ) = 70

Operating:

2( 3x + 5 ) = 70

Dividing by 2:

3x + 5 = 35

Subtracting 5:

3x = 30

Dividing by 3:

x = 30 / 3

x = 10

The width is 10 ft and the length is 2(10)+5=25 ft

The area of the game room is:

A = 10 ft * 25 ft

A = 250 square ft

A plane traveled 4575 miles with the wind in 7.5 hours and 4275 miles against the wind in the same amount of time. Find the speed of the plane in still air and the
speed of the wind.
The speed of the plane in still air is mph. (Simplify your answer.)
The speed of the wind is mph. (Simplify your answer.)

Answers

Answer:

The speed of the plane in still air is 590 mph

The speed of the wind is 20 mph

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call:

x = Speed of the plane in still air

y = Speed of the wind

The plane traveled d=4575 miles with the wind in t=7.5 h. The speed calculated with this data corresponds to the sum of the speed of the plane and the speed of the wind, thus:

[tex]\displaystyle x+y=\frac{4575}{7.5}=610[/tex]

x + y = 610        [1]

The plane traveled 4275 miles in 7.5 hours against the wind, thus the speed calculated is x - y:

[tex]\displaystyle x-y=\frac{4275}{7.5}=570[/tex]

x - y = 570        [2]

Adding [1] and [2]:

2x = 610 + 570 = 1180

x = 1180 / 2 = 590

From [1]:

y = 610 - 590 = 20

The speed of the plane in still air is 590 mph

The speed of the wind is 20 mph

Which two statements describe how saving $200 every month in her traditional 401(k) retirement account is different from saving $200 every month for her car? Select all the correct answers. Isabel’s retirement savings are made with after-tax dollars. Isabel’s retirement savings are made with pretax dollars. Isabel’s retirement savings can be used for other purposes without penalty. Isabel’s retirement savings have more liquidity than the money in her savings account. Isabel’s retirement savings have no contribution limits. Isabel’s retirement savings may include a contribution from her employer.

Answers

Answer:

Isabel’s retirement savings are made with pretax dollars.

Isabel’s retirement savings may include a contribution from her employer.

Step-by-step explanation:

When you contribute to an IRA account, your contribution is tax deductible. This means that all the money that you contribute to your account comes from pretax dollars. This contribution is limited to $19,500 per year (for 2020) or $26,000 if you are 50 or older.

Your employer can also contribute to your 401(k) account and employer's contribution may be even higher than the employee's. Total contributions including employer's and employee's cannot exceed $57,000 per year (or $63,500 if 50 or older) or the employee's total compensation per year, whichever is lower.

Chose the missing side length and the trigonometric ratio you would use to calculate.

Answers

Answer:

The missing value is 2.9mm and cosine was used

Step-by-step explanation:

Given triangle is a right-angled triangle  we can use trigonometric ratios to calculate the missing length.

In the given triangle,

Base = k

Hypotenuse = 15mm

Angle = 79

We will use trigonometric ratio which includes base and hypotenuse.

Using cosine,

[tex]cos\ (angle) = \frac{Base}{hypotenuse}\\cos\ 79 = \frac{k}{15}\\k = cos\ 79 * 15\\k = 0.1908*15\\k = 2.862[/tex]

Rounding off to nearest tenth

[tex]k= 2.9mm[/tex]
