Ellen wants to purchase a book that is regularly priced at $18. The book is discounted 15%. She also needs to pay a 6% sales tax on the discounted price.

What is the total amount Ellen will pay for the book?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Ellen will pay $16.22 for the book.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1:

We know that the book Ellen wants to buy has a normal price of $18. However, there is a 15% discount. So, let's calculate 15% of $18.

18 x 0.15 = $2.70

This lets us know that there is a $2.70 discount.

Now, let's subtract the discount from the regular price.

18 - 2.70 = $15.30

So, now we know the discounted price is $15.30

Part 2:

We also know that Ellen has to pay 6% sales tax. The discounted price is 100% of the price, plus 6% is 106%. Let's calculate the tax to figure out the total amount.

15.30 x 1.06 = $16.22 when rounded to the nearest cent.

Therefore, Ellen will pay the total amount of $16.22.

Answer 2

Answer:

$16.22

Step-by-step explanation:

marked price        =  $18    = 100%

discount                = $?       = 15%

selling price/         =  $?      = 85%        

discounted price- this price is lower than the marked price as they have given you a DISCOUNT- an amount of money DEDUCTED.(a.k.a selling price)

selling price  =  85%  x   $18     =   $15.3= discounted price

                                 100%

sales tax=6%

=   6 x 15.3     =  0.918 =   $0.92=sales tax

       100

total amount = discounted price + sales tax

                     =  15.3  +  0.92

                      =  $16.22

Given the sequence, 26, 13, 6.5, ..... find a) the 10th term and b) the sum of the first 18 terms

Answers

Answer:

a) 10th term is 0.051

b) The sum of first 18 terms of given sequence is 51.48

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the sequence 26, 13, 6.5, ..... we need to find

a) 10th term

b) Sum of first 18 terms

Before solving we need to determine if the sequence is arithmetic or geometric

The sequence is arithmetic if common difference d is same.

The sequence is geometric if common ratio r is same.

Finding common difference d: 13-26 = -13, 6.5-13= -6.5

As common difference is not same so, the sequence is not arithmetic.

Finding common ratio r : 13/26 =0.5, 6.5/13= 0.5

As common ratio is same so, the sequence is geometric.

a) Finding common difference: 13-26 = -13, 6.5-13= -6.5

As common difference is not same so, the sequence is not arithmetic.

a) 10th term

The formula to find 10th term is: [tex]a_n=a_1r^{n-1}[/tex]

We have a₁=26 and r = 0.5 n=10

[tex]a_n=a_1r^{n-1}\\a_{10}=26(0.5)^{10-1}\\a_{10}=26(0.5)^{9}\\a_{10}=0.051[/tex]

So, 10th term is 0.051

b) Sum of first 18 terms

The formula to find sum of geometric series is: [tex]S_n=\frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}[/tex]

where a= 1st term, r = common ratio and n= number of terms

In the given sequence we have

a=26, r=0.5 and n=18

Finding sum of first 18 terms

[tex]S_n=\frac{a(1-r^n)}{1-r}\\S_{18}=\frac{26(1-(0.5)^{18}}{1-0.5}\\S_{18}=\frac{26(0.99)}{0.5}\\S_{18}=\frac{25.74}{0.5}\\S_{18}=51.48[/tex]

So, sum of first 18 terms of given sequence is 51.48

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 250ml of milk to make 8 pancakes

That means 125ml ((250/8) × 4 ml) of milk = 4 pancakes

b) 5g of butter = 8 pancakes

That means 7.5g ((5/8) × 12 g) of butter = 12 pancakes

d. Substitute 22 for y in the equation.

Answers

Answer:

c. Substitute 22 for x in the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The scatter plot of this question is missing, so i have attached it.

The slope equation of this is written as;

y = mx + b

Where;

y is the values in the y-axis

x is the values in the x-axis

b is the intercept on the x-axis

Now, from the scatter plot of the trend line, we can see that the values in the x-axis represent the number of years after 1970 while the y-axis shows us the price of gas per gallon for each corresponding year.

Now, we want to use the trend line equation be used to predict the cost of gas per gallon in the year 1992.

Year 1992 means 22 years after 1992. Since we have our y-intercept from the scatter plot to be 0.25, then to find the cost of gas per gallon in the year 1992, we will just plug in 22 for x and 0.25 for b into the slope line equation.

Which of the following represents a "rule of thumb" for how much
student loan debt you should be willing to incur to pay for college?

Answers

Answer:

Rule of thumb is;

Your cumulative total student loans taken as at the time you are graduating should be less than your proposed annual starting salary.

Step-by-step explanation:

When calculating the loan a college student can afford, a rule of thumb comes in very handy which is that:

Your cumulative total student loans taken as at the time you are graduating should be less than your proposed annual starting salary.

This is because If your total student loan debt is less than your proposed annual income, it means all things being equal, you would be able to pay back the loan in about 10 years or less. However, if the loan debt exceeds your proposed income, it means you are likely to going to struggle and find it very difficult to repay your loan.

The product of (2 + 7i) (2 - 7i) in the form of a + bi is 53 + 0i.

What is an imaginary number?

An imaginary number is denoted by i.

The value of i is √-1.

i² = √-1² = -1

We have,

(2 + 7i) (2 - 7i)

We need to write in the form of a + bi.

a + bi

a = real number

b = imaginary part

(2 + 7i) (2 - 7i)

Remove the brackets.

= 2 x (2 - 7i) + 7i x (2 - 7i)

=  4 - 14i + 14i - 49i²

= 4 - 14i + 14i - 49 x -1

= 4 - 14i + 14i + 49

= 4 + 49

= 53

We have only the real part.

So,

The product of (2 + 7i) (2 - 7i) is 53 + 0i.

Thus,

The product of (2 + 7i) (2 - 7i) in the form of a + bi is 53 + 0i.
