A television costs $270.25 including 15% tax. How much of cost is the tax

Answers

Answer 1

Final answer:

The tax on the television is $35.25.

Explanation:

To find the amount of tax, we first need to determine the original cost of the television. Since the total cost, including tax, is $270.25, we can set up the equation:

$270.25 = x + 0.15x

Where x is the original cost of the television. Combining like terms, we get:

$270.25 = 1.15x

To solve for x, divide both sides of the equation by 1.15:

x = $270.25 ÷ 1.15

Using a calculator, we find that x is approximately $235.00. Therefore, the tax on the television is:

$270.25 - $235.00 = $35.25

Answers

The solution of the linear equations that are written in this item can be calculated by locating the point at which these lines intersect. Fortunately enough in this item, we are directly given with the graphs and their intersection.

Enlarging the graph, we find that the intersection of the two lines drawn is at point (2,8). Hence, the solution of the equation is (2,8) because the graphs of the two lines intersect at this point. 

The answer is therefore the second choice. 

Answer:

B. (2,8) because the graph of the two equations intersects at this point.

If m C=66, find the values of x and y.
A) x = 24, y = 66

B) x = 90, y = 66

C) x = 90, y = 24

D) x = 66, y = 24

Answers

Since triangle ABC is a isosceles triangle
∠ABD = 66°
(Base angle of isosceles triangle)

∠BAC = 180° - (66° × 2) = 48°
y = 48° ÷ 2 = 24°
z = 90°

Answer is C.

Answer:

C) x=90°, y=24°

Step-by-step explanation:

The two sections into which A is split, are the same size as indicated. Sides AB and AC are the same length. Because of those reasons, it can be concluded that B and C are the same size.

The corners of a triangle adds up to 180°. For ΔABC:

[tex]A+B+C=180\\A+2(66)=180\\A=48[/tex]

y° is half of A:

∴y° = 24°

Now add up the corners of triangle ABD:

[tex]y+x+B=180\\24+x+66=180\\x=90[/tex]

∴x° = 90°

hope this helps
Final answer:

To simplify -2+3i/-3-2i, multiply both the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator (-3+2i).

Explanation:

To simplify -2+3i/-3-2i, we can multiply both the numerator and denominator by the conjugate of the denominator, which is -3+2i. This will help us eliminate the imaginary terms in the denominator.

Multiplying the numerator and denominator, we get:

(-2+3i)(-3+2i) / (-3-2i)(-3+2i)

Expanding and simplifying:

(6i+4i^2-9+6i) / (9+4)

Combining like terms:

(-9+12i+4i^2) / 13

Since i^2 is equal to -1, the expression becomes:

(-9+12i-4) / 13

Combining like terms:

(-13+12i) / 13

Therefore, the simplified form of -2+3i/-3-2i is (-13+12i) / 13.

mr. lee had a bag of red beans and a bag of black beans. 20% of the total number of beans were black, and there were 180 ounces more red beans than black beans. he transferred some red beans to the bag containing black beans, so that, the bag now contained 30% of the total number of beans. How many ounces of beans were there in the bag of mixed beans

Answers

r = b+180 
b = .2(r+b) 
so, 
b = 60 
r = 240 
Total beans = 300 oz 

After the transfer, 30% = 90 oz

Final answer:

After finding the total weight of beans based on the given percentages and difference in weight between red and black beans, we determine that there are 90 ounces of beans in the mixed bag.

Explanation:

The question asks us to find out how many ounces of beans are now in the bag of mixed beans, given certain percentages before and after mixing. We know that initially, 20% of the total beans are black, and the rest are red. After Mr. Lee transferred some red beans to the bag containing black beans, the bag contained 30% of the total number of beans.

To solve this, let's denote the total number of beans by T, the number of black beans by B, and the number of red beans by R. According to the information provided:

20% of T is black beans: B = 0.20TThere are R = B + 180 oz of red beans.After transferring, the mixed bag contains 30% of T.

First, we use the initial conditions to write an equation for the total number of beans T. Since R is 180 ounces more than B:

T = B + R

T = B + (B + 180)

T = 2B + 180

Given that B is 20% of T, we can also write this as:

T = 2(0.20T) + 180

T = 0.40T + 180

We can now solve for T:

T - 0.40T = 180

0.60T = 180

T = 180 / 0.60

T = 300 ounces

Since we know that the mixed bag contains 30% of the total, we calculate 30% of 300 ounces:

30% of T = 0.30 x 300

30% of T = 90 ounces

Therefore, after transferring, there are 90 ounces of beans in the mixed bag.

An arithmetic sequence has a first term of 6.3 and a second term of 8.8 Which term has a value of 78.8?

Answers

First term [ a ] = 6.3

Common difference [ d ] = 8.8 - 6.3 = 2.5 

Using general term formula,

[tex]t_{n} = a + (n-1)d[/tex]

78.8 = 6.3 + (n-1)*2.5

2.5*(n-1) = 72.5 [ Dividing both sides by 2.5 ]

n-1 = 29

n = 30

Hence, 78.8 is the 30th term in the arithmetic series.

it takes trevon ten hours to clean an attic. cody can clean the same attoc in seven hours.find how long it would take them if they worked together.

Answers

(17/70)x = 70/70(17x)/70 = 70/7017x = 70x = 70/17x ≈ 4.1176
Final answer:

If Trevon takes 10 hours to clean the attic and Cody takes 7 hours to clean the same attic, it would take them approximately 4.11 hours to clean the attic if they worked together.

Explanation:

If Trevon takes 10 hours to clean the attic and Cody takes 7 hours to clean the same attic, we can find the rates at which they clean per hour. Trevon cleans at a rate of 1/10 of the attic per hour, and Cody cleans at a rate of 1/7 of the attic per hour. To find out how long it would take them if they worked together, we add their rates: 1/10 + 1/7 = 17/70. This means that together, they can clean 17/70 of the attic per hour.

To find out how long it would take for them to clean the whole attic, we divide 1 (representing the full attic) by their combined rate: 1 / (17/70) = 70/17 = 4.11 hours (rounded to the nearest hundredth).

Which line has an undefined slope? A y = 0 B y = 2 C x = y D x = 2

Answers

Line x =2 has undefined slope.

What is slope?

" Slope is defined as the ratio of the difference in the increase of  y-coordinates to the difference in the increase of  x-coordinates."

Formula used

Equation of the line

y = mx + c

c = y-intercept

m = slope

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

According to the question,

1. y = 0

Compare it with standard equation of the line

y = 0x + 0

slope = 0

It is not a correct answer.

2. y =2

Compare it with standard equation of the line

y = 0x + 2

slope = 0

It is not a correct answer.

3. x= y

Compare it with standard equation of the line

y = 1x + 0

slope = 1

It is not a correct answer.

4. x=2

It is vertical line , x value remain constant.

Therefore,

[tex]x_{1}=2\\x_{2}=2[/tex]

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

         = [tex]\frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{0}[/tex]

Final answer:

The line with an undefined slope is D. x = 2, which is a vertical line with a constant x-value for all points on the line.

Explanation:

The question asks which line has an undefined slope. An undefined slope occurs when a line is vertical since slope is defined as the change in y over the change in x, and in a vertical line the change in x is zero. Looking at the options given, the equation representing a vertical line is D. x = 2. This line is vertical because it has the same x-value for all points on the line, meaning there is no change in x as you move along the line, thus creating an undefined slope.

Answers

Final answer:

To find the approximate side length of a square game board with an area of 151 in², take the square root of 151.

Explanation:

To find the approximate side length of a square game board with an area of 151 in2, we can use the formula for the area of a square, which is length x width. Since all sides of a square are equal, we can represent the side length as 's'. So, s x s = 151. To find the side length, we can take the square root of 151, which is approximately 12.29 inches. Therefore, the approximate side length of the square game board is 12.29 inches.
