Two Pairs Of Jeans Cost $75 before tax. If the total paid for the two pairs of jeans with tax was $81, what is the percentage of tax paid? Show work please​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

31%

Step-by-step explanation:

100- 75 = 25

25/81 = 0.308 = 31%

Answer 2

First, find what percentage of the total price the jeans are. Price of jeans divided by total cost paid

75/81=.9259 the jeans were 92.59% of the total cost; the rest is tax. So you subtract 92.59% from 100% (the total cost paid) and get 7.41% sales tax

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

2/4=0.5

BC gradient is 2

AB (3,2)

AC (1,1)

DE gradient is 1/2=0.5

same gradients

parallel line have the same gradients

DE=0.5

BC=0.5

D has coordinate (3,2) and E has coordinate (1,1)

Gradient of DE = (2 - 1)/(3 - 1) = 0.5

Gradient of BC = (-2 - -4)/(3 - 1) = 0.5

BC and DE have the same gradient so they are parallel.  

To prove that DE is parallel to BC, we need to show that their slopes are equal. Let's start with finding the midpoints D and E:

Midpoint D: The coordinates of D are the averages of the coordinates of A and B.A = (4, 6)B = (2, -2)D = ((4+2)/2 ,  (6+(-2))/2) => (3, 2)Midpoint E: The coordinates of E are the averages of the coordinates of A and C.A = (4, 6)C = (-2, -4)E = ( ( 4 + (-2) )/2 =  ( 6 + (-4) ) /2) = (1, 1)Step-by-step explanation:Slope of BC: The slope of line BC is calculated as follows:(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (-4 - (-2)) / (-2 - 2) = (-4 + 2) / (-4) = -2 / -4 = 1/2Slope of DE: The slope of line DE is calculated as follows:(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1) = (1 - 2) / (1 - 3) =  (-1) / (-2) = 1/2Since the slope of DE is equal to the slope of BC (both are 1/2), we can conclude that DE is parallel to BC.

Which of the following equations fits this graph?

Answers

A. down

The -4 moves the y-intercept down from the origin to -4

Answer: Option A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in slope-intercept form is:

[tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

Where the slope is "m" and the intersection of the line with the y-axis is "b".

Given the function f(x) in the form [tex]f(x)=x[/tex], you can identify that:

[tex]m=1\\b=0[/tex]

This means that the line passes through the origin (0,0)

And from the function g(x) in the form [tex]g(x)=x-4[/tex], , you can identify that:

[tex]m=1\\b=-4[/tex]

This means that the line of the function g(x) and the line of the function f(x) have the same slope, but the line of g(x) passes through the point (0,-4)

Therefore, the graph of f(x) must be shifted 4 units down to produce the graph of g(x)

Camp Ground A has an area of 300 square yards with a maximum capacity of 25 pup tents. Camp Ground B has an area of 480 square yards and requires that each of its pup tents occupies the same area as each pup tent in Camp Ground A. What is the maximum number of pup tents that can occupy Camp Ground B? In two or more sentences, explain your calculations and conclusions.

Answers

Answer:

40 pup tents

Step-by-step explanation:

Since Ground A has area 300 and maximum capacity is 25 tents, so each tent would take up area of  300/25 = 12 sq yards.

Since Ground B's tents should occupy same area as Ground A's tents (12 sq. yards), the maximum capacity of this tent (480 sq yd) would be:

480/12 = 40 pup tents

This is the maximum capacity.

A smartphone for $150.00 cash, or $25.00 down and $12.00 per month for 11 months

Answers

Answer:

150 CASH

Step-by-step explanation:

if you do 25 down and 12 dollar for 11 month you pay 7 more dollars

Final answer:

The cost of financing the smartphone with a down payment and monthly payments would be $157.00, compared to a one-time cash payment of $150.00.

Explanation:

The question posed involves comparing the cost of purchasing a smartphone either with a one-time cash payment or financing it with a down payment followed by monthly payments. To calculate the total cost of the financing option, you add the down payment to the product of the monthly payment amount and the number of months for repayment. In this case, we use the following calculation: $25.00 down payment + ($12.00 per month × 11 months) = $25.00 + $132.00 = $157.00. The total cost when financing the smartphone would be $157.00, which is $7.00 more than the upfront cash payment of $150.00.

Trenton is building a skateboarding ramp in the shape of a triangular prism. According to his plan, the ramp would have a base of 2 feet, a height of 1.5 feet, and a length of 3 feet. The riding surface would measure 2.5 feet.   If Trenton wants to cover all faces of the ramp with plywood, how much plywood will he need to buy?

Answers

Answer:

The answer is 21 square feet of plywood.

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

Trenton needs 21 square feet of plywood to cover all the surface of the ramp.

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

Base is 2 feet long.Height is 1.5 feet long.Length is 3 feet long.The riding surface is 2.5 feet long.

Notice that the ramp is formed by two triangles and three rectangles.

Each triangle has a base of 2 feet and a height of 1.5 feet. So, the area of each triangle is

[tex]A_{triangle}=\frac{bh}{2}=\frac{2(1.5)}{2}=1.5ft^{2}[/tex]

The base of the ramp has dimensions of 3 feet x 2 feet. Its are is

[tex]A_{base}=3(2)=6ft^{2}[/tex]

The back of the ram has an area of

[tex]A_{back}=1.5(3)=4.5 ft^{2}[/tex]

The riding surface is

[tex]A_{riding}=3(2.5)= 7.5ft^{2}[/tex]

So, basically, to know the total surface, we just have to sum the are of both triangles, and the area of all three rectangles, as follows

[tex]S=1.5+1.5+6+4.5+7.5=21ft^{2}[/tex]

This means that Trenton needs 21 square feet of plywood to cover all the surface of the ramp.

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this you need to compare the lengths given to you in the question statement.

Because the lines originate from a single point, they're like triangles.  We can easily see a triangle AGF and a triangle ADE, right?

Both triangles are similar triangles, so we can see triangle ADE as a larger version of angle AGF.

They give you the dimension of A F and A E (through A F + F E) to establish a ratio... and they give you A G, asking for A D.

So, A F = 16, A E = 20 (16 + 4), A G = 12.

Since A D is to A G what A E is to A F, we can easily make the following cross-multiplication:

[tex]\frac{A D}{A G} = \frac{A E}{A F}[/tex]

So, A D = (A G * A E)/A F

A D = (12 * 20) / 16 = 15

Which number line represents the solution set for the inWhich number line represents the solution set for the inequality –x ≥ 4?equality –x ≥ 4?

Answers

Final answer:

The solution set for the inequality –x ≥ 4 is x ≤ – 4, which includes all numbers less than or equal to – 4. This would be represented on a number line with a solid dot at – 4 and shading to the left.

Explanation:

The question pertains to solving the inequality –x ≥ 4 and representing the solution on a number line. To solve for x, we first multiply both sides by – 1, remembering to reverse the inequality sign since multiplying or dividing by a negative number reverses the inequality:

–x ≥ 4

( – 1)( –x) ≤ ( – 1)(4)

x ≤ – 4

This means that x is less than or equal to – 4. On the number line, the solution set for x includes all numbers to the left of – 4, including – 4 itself. To represent this graphically, one would draw a solid dot at – 4 and shade all the region to the left of – 4, indicating all those numbers are included in the solution set.

D. The parabola intercepts the x-axis in two points.

[tex]x_{1}=-0.59\\\\x_{2}=-3.41[/tex]

Why?

To find the parabola intercepts, we need to use the quadratic formula. The parabola intercepts with the x-axis, are also called roots or zeroes.

The quadratic formula states that:

[tex]x=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}[/tex]

We are given the parabola:

[tex]16x+8=-4x^{2} \\[/tex]

Which is also equal to:

[tex]4x^{2}+16x+8=0[/tex]

Where,

[tex]a=4\\b=16\\c=8\\[/tex]

Then, substituting into the quadratic formula to find the roots of the parabola, we have:

[tex]x=\frac{-b+-\sqrt{b^{2}-4ac } }{2a}\\\\x=\frac{-16+-\sqrt{(16)^{2}-4*4*8 } }{2*4}=\frac{-16+-\sqrt{(256-128) } }{8}\\\\x==\frac{-16+-\sqrt{(256-128) } }{8}=\frac{-16+-\sqrt{(28 } }{8}\\\\x=\frac{-16+-\sqrt{128 } }{8}=\frac{-16+-(11.31) }{8}\\\\\\x_{1}=\frac{-16+(11.31) }{8}=-0.59\\\\x_{1}=\frac{-16-(11.31) }{8}=-3.41[/tex]

Hence,the parabola intercepts the x-axis in two points.
