A pack of cinnamon scented pancils sells for $7.00.What is the sales tax rate if the total cost of the pencils is $7.49?

Answers

Answer 1

The amount of sales tax rate on the scented pencils will be equal to 7%.

What is the Percentage?

The Latin phrase "per centum," which means "by the hundred," is where the English word "percentage" comes from. Percentage segments are those with a numerator of 100. In other words, it is a connection where the whole is always deemed to be valued 100.

As per the given information in the question,

Price of scented pencils = $7

Price of pencils after-tax = $7.49

Then, the percentage of tax on the pencils will be,

= (7.49 - 7)/7 × 100

= 0.07 × 100

= 7%

Um navio esta situado exatamente a 10 milhas a leste de um ponto A. Um observador, situado exatamente a sul do navio, ve o ponto A sob um angulo de 40°. Qual a distância entre o observador e o navio?

Answers

1) Considerando o ponto A, um vertice; o ponto O  onde o observador está e por ultimo, o ponto N que é onde o navio está.
Com estes 3 pontos formamos um triangulo. 
O angulo OAN vale 40º
O lado AN vale 10 milhas
O que queremos saber é a distância entre o observador e o navio: lado NO

2) Para isso calculamos a tangente deste angulo: tg 40º= angulo oposto/ angulo adjacente.
angulo oposto é o NO e o lado adjacente ao angulo é o AN que vale 10

Se fores à calculadora vês que tg40º é 0,83.
0,83= angulo oposto/ 10
ang oposto= 8,3 milhas

The area of a rectangle is 45 square inches. The rectangle is 9 inches long. How wide is the rectangle?

A. 5 inches

B. 36 inches

C. 27 inches

D. 3 inches

Answers

the answer is definitely 5 :)

Final answer:

To find the width of a rectangle with an area of 45 square inches and a length of 9 inches, divide the area by the length, resulting in a width of 5 inches (Option A).

Explanation:

The area of a rectangle can be calculated by multiplying its length by its width. In this case, we know the area is 45 square inches and the length is 9 inches. To find the width, we divide the area by the length.

Width = Area ÷ Length = 45 sq in ÷ 9 in = 5 in

Therefore, the width of the rectangle is 5 inches, which corresponds to option A.

Keith's florists has 15 delivery trucks, used mainly to deliver flowers and flower arrangements in the greenville, south carolina, area. of these 15 trucks, 5 have brake problems. a sample of 4 trucks is randomly selected. what is the probability that 2 of those tested have defective brakes?

Answers

Given the fact that 5 out of the 15 trucks have brake problems, we can find the probability that a delivery truck has brake problems as 5/15 = 0.3333. In the sample of 4 trucks, the number of trucks that have defective brackets is a binomially distributed random variable with n = 4 and p = 0.3333. Using the formula for binomial distribution, we get P(X = 2) = 4C2 * 0.3333² * (1–0.3333)² = 0.2963.
The answer is 0.2963. 
 

Answer:

Hence, the probability is:

0.296

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be solved with the help of the binomial probability as:

[tex]P(x=r)=n_C_rp^r(1-p)^{n-r}[/tex]

where n denote the quantity which are chosen.

r denote the quantity whose probability is to be determined or success.

and p denote the probability of success.

with n=4 since 4 trucks are randomly selected.

p=5/15=1/3 ( As 5 have brake problems out of total 15 trucks)

1-p=10/15=2/3

r=2 ( since we are asked to find the probability that 2 of those tested have defective brakes)

Hence, the probability is:

[tex]P(x=2)=4_C_2(\dfrac{1}{3})^2(\dfrac{2}{3})^2\\\\\\P(x=2)=\dfrac{4!}{2!\times (4-2)!}\times \dfrac{1}{9}\times \dfrac{4}{9}\\\\\\P(x=2)=0.296[/tex]

Hence, the probability is:

0.296

You can use a minus sign to make a negative number like -2. what happens if you put a plus sign before a number? what about 2++2?

Answers

Final answer:

A plus sign before a number does not change its value. In the expression 2++2, the two plus signs next to each other are interpreted as a positive number followed by another positive number.

Explanation:

When you put a plus sign before a number, it doesn't change the value of the number.

The plus sign is just a symbol to indicate that the number is positive.

In the expression 2++2, the two plus signs next to each other are not a valid mathematical operation.

Instead, it is interpreted as a positive number followed by another positive number.

So, 2++2 is equal to 2+2, which is 4.

b. How many fireflies are caught before the competition starts? fireflies are caught before the competition starts.

Answers

a. 7 fireflies are caught per minute. b. 19 fireflies were already caught prior to the contest starting. a. Looking at the equations (3m + 13) and (4m + 6) where m is equal to the number of minutes since the contest began, it's obvious that there are 3+4 = 7 fireflies caught per minute. b. One again, look at the two equations. Or for that matter, calculate them both and add the results for m=0 (the moment the contest began). And upon doing so, you'll see that 13 + 6 = 19 fireflies were caught prior to the competition starting.

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

The actual dimension of the recreation room is 24 feet x 21 feet.

What is unit conversion?

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

Example:

1 minute = 60 seconds

1 km = 1000 m

1m = 100 cm

1 hour - 60 minutes

We have,

Recreation room dimension on the blueprint:

= 2 inches x 1.75 inches ______(A)

Scale factor:

1 inch = 12 feet

The actual dimension of the recreational room:

1 inch = 12 feet

Multiply 2 on both sides.

2 inches = 24 feet _____(1)

1 inch = 12 feet

Multiply 1.75 on both sides.

1.75 inches = 1.75 x 12 feet

1.75 inches = 21 feet ______(2)

From (1) and (2) and (A) we get,

= 2 inches x 1.75 inches

= 24 feet x 21 feet

Thus,

The actual dimension of the recreation room is 24 feet x 21 feet.

Given that BC = 7, AB = 17.89, and C is between A and B, what is the length of ?

Answers

*assuming that ABC is a straight line** 
then you have 
AB = 17.89 ..... this is the length of the whole line 

BC is a part of the line = 7 

therefore the length of the other part = 17.89 - 7 

= 10.89
17.89-7=10.89
You know that the distance from A to b is 17.89 and the distance from b to c is 7.  So the length from a to c is the whole distance(a to b) subtracted by a portion of the distance(b to c) giving us 10.89

Triangle A B C with angle A measuring thirty degrees, angle B measuring seventy degrees and angle C marked x

Answers

Since triangles always have a total amount of 180 degrees, adding the amounts we already know and subtracting that amount from 180, we get the value x. So the answer would be 80 degrees.

Answer: In a triangle, the sum of the 3 angles is always equal to 180°

Then if the angle A is equal to 30°, the angle B is equal to 70°, what is the angle C?

if x is the angle C, and using the first statement, we got:

30° + 70° + x = 180°

100° + x = 180°

x = 180° - 100° = 80°

So the angle of C is equal to 80°.

B.


d = 1080 – 6


C.


d = 1080 • 6


D.


d = 1080 ÷ 6

Answers

The answer is d :)

All you have to do is take the distance she drove and divide it by how many weeks it took.

Mr. Guzman drove 1080 miles in 6 weeks. To find the distance driven each week, use the equation d = 1080 ÷ 6, which equals 180 miles per week. Therefore, the correct equation is option D.

Mr. Guzman drove 1080 miles in 6 weeks. We need to find out how far he drove each week if he drove the same distance every week.

Identify the Total Distance Driven: 1080 milesIdentify the Total Time Period: 6 weeks

Set Up the Equation: Since Mr. Guzman drove the same distance every week, we use the formula:

d = Total Distance / Total Time.

Substitute Known Values:

d = 1080 ÷ 6

Calculate the Result:

d = 180 miles per week

The correct equation that shows how far Mr. Guzman drove each week is d = 1080 ÷ 6, which corresponds to option D.
