For a promotion, a store offers to pay the sales taxes on any item
you buy. You are actually paying taxes but they are calculated on
a lower price.
Suppose you buy an item for $100.
The sales taxes are 15%.
a) What is the true sale price of the item?
b) How much tax are you really paying?

Answers

Answer 1
You buy an item for $100 with 15% added tax. So we find 15% of 100:
100 • 0.15 = 15

(A quick math here, and percentage of 100 will always be the same number of the percentage, for example 32% of 100 will be 32.)

100 + 15 = 115

a) the true sale price of the item is $115 (with tax included)

b) you are buying a $15 tax (for the item)

(I hope these are correct, the questions are really vague)

The answer is C, 25% increase. To find the increase, subtract starting value (780) from the final value (975). It equals out to be 195. Divide 195 by the starting value which turns out to be 0.25. Then, multiply 0.25 by 100 which equals out to be 25.

What is the median of these numbers :
90, 95, 92, 93, 91, 97

Answers

Answer:92.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The middle numbers are 92 and 93 and then you add 92+93=185 and 185/2=92.5

The median is 92.5

Work :

1) Place the numbers in order
90, 91, 92, 93, 95, 97

2) There are two medians (92 & 93)

3) Add both numbers then divide by 2, because it’s two numbers and you need 1 median

92+93 = 185/2 = 92.5

5) No, it is not because the sizes of each section are not even.

6) Yes, this is fair since there are a even chance of getting each number.

7) 3 out of 25 or 3/25

8) The bag with 250 colored tiles would give him a less chance of picking a blue tile. In the first bag, there is a 40% chance that Greg would pick a blue tile while the second bag, he would have a 30% chance of picking a blue tile. To get these percentages, I divided the the amount of blue tiles in the bag by the total amount of tiles.

Explantion for question 8: 10 blue tiles in a bag of 25 so you would do 10/25 which is .4 and as a percentage it would be 40%. For the second question, 75 blue tiles out of 250 total so 75/250 and that would be .3 and as a percentage, it would be 30%. The "/" is a fraction bar and is sometimes used as a division symbol as well, just in case you don't know:)

What is the perimeter of the triangle?

Answers

We can count the bottom units to get 10 units. Now to get the sides of it.

Let’s split this triangle in the middle to get two right triangles.

The height of the triangle is 12 units and one of the legs is 5 ( from 10/2 )

Let’s find the hypotenuse

(5) ^2 + (12) ^2 = c^2

C = 13

So this mean each side is 13 units

13 + 13 + 10 = 36 units

Perimeter = 36 units

2x+34=90

    -34  

2x=56

x=28

Answer:

x = 28°

Step-by-step explanation:

As you see that the angle is an right angle where right angles = 90°

So,

(2x + 1) + 33 = 90°

Subtract 33 on both sides:

2x + 1 = 57

Subtract 1 on both sides:

2x = 56

Divide 2 on both sides:

x = 28°

D.On average, 2 out of 10 adults visited the museum most frequently.​

Answers

Answer:

D.

Step-by-step explanation:

In total, there are 70 people.

31/70= around 44.2%

14/70= 20%=2/10

17/70= around 24.2%

8/70= around 11.4%

Using proportions, it is found that the correct statement is given by:

D. On average, 2 out of 10 adults visited the museum most frequently.​

What is a proportion?

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

In this problem, there is a total of 31 + 14 + 17 + 8 = 70 adults.

Applying the rule of three, 2 out of 10 considering 70 adults is equivalent to 14 adults, hence option D is correct.

Hi!

Here is the definition of a net from www.icoachmath.com:

“Net is a two-dimensional pattern of a three-dimensional figure that can be folded to form the figure. In other words, net is a flattened three-dimensional figure which can be turned into the solid by folding it.”

In the photo is an example of a net of a rectangular prism.

Surface area is the measure of the total area of the surface of a 3D object. For example, if I have a cube, the surface area would be the area of the outside of the cube.

What is the scale factor of the dilation?

Is the dilation an enlargement or a reduction?

Answers

Answers:

Scale Factor = 3/4

This is a reduction

======================================================

Explanation:

Let's focus on the point R(4,4). That's the preimage point for the image of R ' (3,3).

Let k be the scale factor. We multiply this value of k by the x,y coordinates of point R to jump to R '

we have x = 4 jump to 4k which is the x coordinate of point R'

So we set 4k equal to 3 and solve for k to get k = 3/4. The scale factor is 3/4 or 0.75

We have a reduction since the image triangle T'R'S' is smaller compared to the preimage triangle TRS. We can see that we have a reduction by looking at the scale factor. If 0 < k < 1, then we have a reduction. If k > 1, then we have an enlargement instead. So we go with the first option since 0 < 3/4 < 1 or you could say 0 < 0.75 < 1.

Answer:

A reduction (think shrinking) is a dilation that creates a smaller image, and an enlargement is a dilation that creates a larger image

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

This is F. This is because, when both sides of the triangle is 42, and when you add it up it is 84. Now 84 + x will be the answer. The total sum of all of the measurements of a triangle is ALWAYS 180! So, the answer is the first option F.

Hope this helps!!

-Ketifa

The abase angles of an isosceles triangle must always be the same so if you add them together, making 84 you have to subtract it from 180 which is the total sum of angles of the triangle so 180-84=96 sot he missing angle is 96

Solve the x
3(1.5x + 9)= -9

Answers

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

3(1.5x + 9) = -9

Divide both sides by 3

1.5x + 9 = -3

Subtract 9 from both sides

1.5x = -12

Divide both sides by 1.5

x = -8

Answer:

x = -8

Step-by-step explanation:

3(1.5x + 9)= -9

=> 4.5x + 27 = -9

=> 4.5x = -9-27

=> 4.5x = -36

[tex] = > \frac{45x}{10} = - 36[/tex]
