Nicole Nichols purchased a new carpet for $287 and a vacuum cleaner for $121. What is the sales tax if she
lives in Iowa where the sales tax rate is 5 percent?
a. $31.99
c. $20.40
b. $19.98
d. $24.48

The question is about comparing Angela's 12% commission structure against her friend's $750 fixed salary plus 5% commission. The answer examines how the volume of sales would affect their respective incomes.

This problem is about comparing commission rates and overall income. If Angela worked on a straight 12% commission, it means that she earns 12% of the total sales she makes. Her friend, however, has a fixed salary of $750, in addition to earning 5% of his total sales as commission. To compare their incomes, we would need to know the total sales each of them makes. Generally, the more sales they make, the more beneficial the commission system becomes.

For example, if Angela made $1000 in sales, she would earn $120 (12% of $1000). If her friend made the same amount in sales, he would earn $800 ($750 salary + $50 from 5% of $1000). However, if they only made $100 in sales, Angela would earn $12, and her friend would earn, $755. So, the best system depends on the volume of sales.

Answer:

Therefore,

[tex]m\angle A =28\°\\\\m\angle C =99\°\\\\c=21\ units[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider a Δ ABC with

m∠ B = 53°

BC = a = 10

AC = b = 17    

To Find:  

AC = c = ?  

m∠ A = ?

m∠ C =  ?

Solution:

We know in a Triangle Sine Rule Says that,  

In Δ ABC,

[tex]\dfrac{a}{\sin A}= \dfrac{b}{\sin B}= \dfrac{c}{\sin C}[/tex]

substituting the given values we get

[tex]\dfrac{a}{\sin A}= \dfrac{b}{\sin B}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{10}{\sin A}= \dfrac{17}{\sin 53}\\\\\sin A=0.469\\A=\sin^{-1}(0.469)=28.02\approx 28\°[/tex]

Therefore m∠A = 28°

Triangle sum property:

In a Triangle sum of the measures of all the angles of a triangle is 180°.

[tex]\angle A+\angle B+\angle C=180\\\\28+53+\angle C=180\\\therefore m\angle C =180-81=99\°[/tex]

Therefore m∠C = 99°

Now From Sine rule we have

[tex]\dfrac{b}{\sin B}= \dfrac{c}{\sin C}[/tex]

Substituting the values we get

[tex]\dfrac{17}{\sin 53}= \dfrac{c}{\sin 99}\\\\c=21.02\approx 21\ unit[/tex]

Therefore,

[tex]m\angle A =28\°\\\\m\angle C =99\°\\\\c=21\ units[/tex]

Answer:

m > 124

Step-by-step explanation:

switch sides, add 91 to both sides then simplify :)

You need to isolate/get the variable "m" by itself on one side of the equation

33 < m - 91    Add 91 on both sides to get m by itself

33 + 91 < m - 91 + 91

124 < m    [124 is less than m]

Answer:

Therefore  40 milliliter of 50% fungicide solution is required

Therfore  60 milliliter of 10% fungicide solution is required

Step-by-step explanation:

i) Let the 10% fungicide solution have x milliliter and the 50% fungicide solution have y milliliter.

ii) Therefore 10x + 50y = 26(x + y)

                      x + y = 100

iii) form the first equation in ii) we get

                   16 x  = 24 y   Therefore [tex]x = \frac{24}{16} y = \frac{3}{2} y[/tex]

iv) substituting the value obtained in iii) in the second equation in ii) we get

      [tex]\frac{3}{2} y + y = \frac{5}{2} y = 100[/tex]

  Therefore y = 100 ÷ 2.5 =  40 milliliter

   Therfore x = 100 - 40 = 60 milliliter

Josh bought a total of 1,800 grams of fruit. This includes 1.5 kg of oranges (converted to 1,500 grams), 150 grams of grapes, and 15,000 centigrams of apples (converted to 150 grams). The weights were converted to grams to find the total weight.

The subject of the question you've asked pertains to Mathematics, specifically to the topic of weight measurement and addition. We have to convert different measurements to a uniform unit and then sum them up to find the total weight of all the fruits bought by Josh at the farmer's market.

To solve the problem presented in the question: Josh bought 1.5 kilograms of oranges, 150 grams of grapes, and 15,000 centigrams of apples. We want to find out the total weight of fruits in grams. First, we need to convert kilograms and centigrams to grams, since kilograms and centigrams are not directly compatible with grams. We know that 1 kilogram equals 1,000 grams, and 1 centigram equals 0.01 grams.

So, converting Josh's purchases to grams:

Oranges: 1.5 kg × 1,000 = 1,500 grams

Grapes: 150 grams (already in grams, no conversion necessary)

Apples: 15,000 cg × 0.01 = 150 grams

Now, we simply add all the weights in grams:

1,500 grams (oranges) + 150 grams (grapes) + 150 grams (apples) = 1,800 grams of fruit in total.

Answer: The answer is C

Paolo wrote the following equation for the perimeter of a rectangle.

P=2(l+w)

Which equation is equivalent to the equation Paolo wrote?

The equivalent equations are:

[tex]w = \frac{p-2l}{2}\\\\l = \frac{p-2w}{2}\\\\p = 2l+2w[/tex]

Given that:

The equation for perimeter of rectangle written by Paolo is:

P = 2(l + w)

where

l = length side of rectangle

w = width side of the rectangle

We have to find the equivalent equation

Let us solve the equation for "w"

[tex]P = 2(l + w)[/tex]

Divide by 2 both sides

[tex]\frac{P}{2} = \frac{2(l+w)}{2}\\\\\frac{P}{2} = l + w[/tex]

[tex]\text{Subtract L on both sides of equation }[/tex]

[tex]\frac{P}{2} - l = l + w - l\\\\\frac{P}{2} - l =w[/tex]

[tex]w = \frac{p-2l}{2}[/tex]

Similarly solving for "l" we get,

[tex]l = \frac{P-2w}{2}[/tex]

Also, given equation can be written as,

[tex]P = 2(l+w)\\\\P = 2l + 2w[/tex]

Thus the equivalent equations are found

Final answer:

The equivalent equation to Paolo's originally written P=2(t+W) for a rectangle's perimeter should be P=2t+2u, assuming 't' stands for width and 'u' for length. The area function a(t) for the rectangle based on width and fixed perimeter is valid within the domain 0 <= t <= L/2.

Explanation:

The question pertains to the formation of equivalent equations to express the perimeter of a rectangle. Paolo wrote the equation P=2(t+W). However, it seems there may have been a typographical error as the correct variables should have been 't' for width and 'u' for length. Given this, the equivalent equation to Paolo's should be P = 2t + 2u, also stated as P = 2(t + u) which confirms the relationship between perimeter, length, and width for a rectangle.

From the provided context, it's also understood that the function representing the area of the rectangle, when written in terms of width (t), is a(t) = t(L/2 - t), which is valid within the domain 0 <= t <= L/2. This function helps in determining the maximum area of the rectangle for a given perimeter (L).

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

40 hours per week*20 dollars per hour=800 dollars per week. This job makes 200 more dollars than the other job.  

The amount of generation of the most income in the second job offer will be more which is $800 per week.

The rate is the ratio of the amount of something to the unit. For example - If the speed of the car is 20 km/h it means the car travels 20 km in one hour.

An employee working 40 hours per week earns a salary of $600 per week. Then the rate is given as,

Rate = $600 per week

But gets a second job offer to work 40 hours per week, hourly at $20 an hour. Then the rate is given as,

Rate = $20 x 40

Rate = $800 per week

The amount of generation of the most income in the second job offer will be more which is $800 per week.

Answer:

$ 1.10

Step-by-step explanation:

p + r = 1.45....p = 1.45 - r

2p + r = 1.80

2(1.45 - r) + r = 1.80

2.90 - 2r + r = 1.80

-2r + r = 1.80 - 2.90

-r = - 1.10

r = 1.10 <=== a ruler costs $ 1.10

p + r = 1.45

p + 1.10 = 1.45

p = 1.45 - 1.10

p = 0.35 .......a pencil will cost $ 0.35

By setting up simultaneous equations based on the purchases of Phoebe and Ioeh and solving them, we find that the cost of the ruler is £1.10.

To determine the cost of the ruler, we need to set up two equations based on the given information about Phoebe and Ioeh's purchases and use the method of simultaneous equations.

Let's assume 'R' represents the cost of the ruler and 'P' represents the cost of one pencil.

According to the question:

To find the cost of the ruler, we can solve these equations simultaneously. Subtract the first equation from the second to eliminate R and find P:

1. R + 2P = £1.80
2. R + P  = £1.45

Subtract equation 2 from equation 1:

2P - P = £1.80 - £1.45
P = £0.35

Now that we know one pencil costs £0.35, we can substitute P back into either equation to find R. Let's use the first equation:

R + P = £1.45
R + £0.35 = £1.45
R = £1.45 - £0.35
R = £1.10

Thus, the ruler costs £1.10.

To find the sum of the series, we need to substitute the values for k in the series.

[tex]\sum_{k=1}^{4}\left(2 k^{2}-4\right)=\left[2(1)^{2}-4\right]+\left[2(2)^{2}-4\right]+\left[2(3)^{2}-4\right]+\left[2(4)^{2}-4\right][/tex]

Now, simplifying the square terms, we get,

Part 1)Is a inconsistent system

Part 2) Is a consistent independent system

Part 3) Is a consistent dependent system

see the attached figure

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

If a system has at least one solution, it is said to be consistent .  

If a consistent system has exactly one solution, it is independent .  

If a consistent system has an infinite number of solutions, it is dependent

If a system not have solution, it is said to be inconsistent

Part 1) we have

[tex]x+5y=-2[/tex]

[tex]x+5y=4[/tex]

This system of linear equations has two parallel lines (their slopes are equal) with different y-intercept

so

The lines don't intersect

The system has no solution

therefore

Is a inconsistent system

Part 2) we have

[tex]y=3x+4[/tex]

[tex]-2x+y=4[/tex]

we know that

If two lines have different slopes, then the lines intersect at one point and the system of equations has one solution

In this problem, the lines have different slopes )m=3 and m=2)

so

The system has one solution

therefore

Is a consistent independent system

Part 3) we have

[tex]3x+y=4[/tex] ----> equation A

[tex]-6x-2y=-8[/tex] ----> equation B

Multiply equation A by -2 both sides

[tex]-2(3x+y)=-2(4)[/tex]

[tex]-6x-2y=-8[/tex] ----> equation C

Compare equation B and equation C

Are identical lines

so

The system has infinity solutions

therefore

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2x + 2y = -10

Making y as subject

2y = -2x - 10

Dividing by 2

y = -2x/2 - 10/2

y = -x - 5

Comparing with y = mx + c

Slope m = -1, y intercept c = -5

The equation is first rewritten in slope-intercept form as y = -x - 5, revealing that the slope is -1 and the y-intercept is -5.

To find the slope and y-intercept of the given equation 2x + 2y = -10, you need to rewrite it in the slope-intercept form, which is y = mx + b, where m represents the slope, and b represents the y-intercept. First, let's separate the y-term on one side by subtracting 2x from both sides of the equation:

2y = -2x - 10

Now divide the entire equation by 2 to solve for y:

y = (-2x/2) - (10/2)

y = -x - 5

Comparing this with the slope-intercept form y = mx + b, we can see that the slope (m) is -1, and the y-intercept (b) is -5.

Step-by-step explanation:

You can solve this by using the vertical line test. When you do the vertical line test, the vertical line should only pass through one point on the function. That means that there can to be only one value of x for every y. Set B is the only set where the x value doesn't repeat.

In the provided sets of ordered pairs, B and D are considered functions. A function is a relation where each input corresponds to exactly one output, and in sets B and D, this requirement is met.

In mathematics, a relation is considered a function if and only if every input (also called the domain or the x-coordinate) corresponds to exactly one output (also called the range or the y-coordinate). In the language of ordered pairs, an ordered pair presents itself as (x, y). If x repeats with a different y in the set, then the relation is not a function.

So let's examine the sets of ordered pairs given:
