Mick paid $3.84 in sales tax on an item that cost $64.00 before tax. At that rate, how much would he pay in
sales tax for an item that costs $53.00 before tax? Explain STEP-BY-STEP

Answers

Answer 1

Tax rate = tax amount / item cost

Tax rate = 3.84 / 64.00

Tax rate = 0.06 (6%)

Tax amount = item cost x tax rate

Tax amount = 53.00 x 0.06 = $3.18

Jennie charges $200 per passenger for a sunset sailing

Let A = the amount of money Jennie earns and let B =
the amount of money Paul earns.
What is the mean of the sum and the mean of the
difference of the amount of money that Jennie and
Paul earn on a randomly selected cruise?

1692.5

Answers

Answer:

1692.5 and -232.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The mean of the sum would be as follows:

1692.5

The difference of the amount of money earned by Jennie and Paul would be:

-232.5

Mean

Given that,

Money earned by Jennie(A) [tex]= 200X[/tex]

Money earned by Paul(B) [tex]= 250Y[/tex]

μ[tex]_{A}[/tex] = $[tex]730[/tex] & σ[tex]_{A}[/tex] = $ [tex]192.62[/tex]

μ[tex]_{B}[/tex] [tex]=[/tex] $[tex]962.5[/tex] & σ[tex]_{B}[/tex] [tex]=[/tex] $ [tex]253.425[/tex]

So,

The mean of the sum [tex]= 1692.5[/tex]

The difference of the amount of money [tex]= -232.5[/tex]

Solve for x. Round to the nearest tenth if necessary.

Answers

Answer:

x = 19

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, both the triangles (small and large) given in the picture are similar,

Their corresponding sides will be in the same ratio.

By applying this property,

[tex]\frac{20}{36}= \frac{30}{30+(x+5)}[/tex]

[tex]\frac{5}{9}= \frac{30}{x+35}[/tex]

5(x + 35) = 9 × 30

5x + 175 = 270

5x = 270 - 175

5x = 95

x = [tex]\frac{95}{5}[/tex]

x = 19

Terms/CoefficientsSolving systems of equations using substitution/elimination

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Define Systems

y = 2x + 1

x + 3y = 10

Step 2: Solve for x

Substitution

Substitute in y:                                                                                                 x + 3(2x + 1) = 10Distribute 3:                                                                                                      x + 6x + 3 = 10Combine like terms:                                                                                       7x + 3 = 10[Subtraction Property of Equality] Subtract 3 on both sides:                      7x = 7[Division Property of Equality] Divide 7 on both sides:                                x = 1

Step 3: Solve for y

Define original equation:                                                                               y = 2x + 1Substitute in x:                                                                                                y = 2(1) + 1Multiply:                                                                                                           y = 2 + 1Add:                                                                                                                 y = 3

Step 4: Find difference

y = 3

x = 1

Subtract:                                                                                                          3 - 1 = 2

Marcus wants to save $378 in order to buy a new electronic keyboard. He plans to save $15.75 every week from his paycheck. Right and solve an equation to find how many weeks Marcus will need to save save.

Answers

Answer:

15.75 * 24 = 378

Step-by-step explanation:

15.75x = 378. We need to first isolate the variable. x = 24. Using this we can make the equation. 15.75 * 24 = 378

If you subtract 14 from twice a number, the result is 6. What is the number?

Answers

The equation for this statement:

2x – 14 = 6

=> 2x = 6 + 14

=> 2x = 20

mark and heather starr are celebrating their 25th anniversary by having a reception at local reception hall. they have budget 4500 for their reception. if the reception hall charges 50 cleanup fee plus 30 per person find the greatest number of people they may invite

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The $50 cleanup fee is a "fixed cost."

The "$30 per-person fee is a "variable cost."  That is, it varies with the number of people.

 

"within"  means "less than or equal to"

 

Cost = $50 + $30x       [where x = number of people]

 

Cost ≤  $4500              ["stay within their budget"]

$50 + $30x ≤ $4500           [substitute for cost]

 $30x ≤ $4450      [subtract $50 from both sides retains sense of inequality]

   x ≤ 148.3333     [divide by +$30 retains sense of inequality]

 

Mark and Heather may invite up to 148 guests.

     [note:  to be "≤," always truncate, never round up]

 

Check:

 148 people for $30 each + $50 is $4440+$50 = $4490.

One more person makes it $4520 -- that is too much.

There we go, my bad

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need a linear equation for the situation. 50 cleanup fee applies regardless of how many people they have.  Even if NOBODY shows up, they will be charged $50, so $50 is our y-intercept. If they are charged $30 per person, and we are looking for the number of people they can invite, x will represent the number of people and y will represent the cost of everything. The linear equation is

y = 30x + 50. If they have 4500 to spend, then

4500 = 30x + 50, and now solve it for x:

4450 = 30x and now divide by 30 to get

148 1/3 = x. Now, you can't invite a third of a person, so it would be safe to invite 148 people and you won't go over your budget.

Lisa has $150 at most to spend on clothes. She wants to buy a pair of jeans for $58 and will spend the rest on t-shirts that cost $14 each.
Then on the way to the register, Lisa notices a cool pair of shoes that cost $39. If she wants those shoes and the jeans, how many t-shirts will she be able to purchase? Create an inequality to represent the number of t-shirts that Lisa can purchase?

Answers

Answer:

To determine the number of shirts that Lisa can buy, knowing that each one is worth $ 14, that she can spend a maximum of $ 150 and that she will also buy a pair of jeans for $ 58 and a pair of shoes for $ 39, the following calculation must be performed:

(150 - 58 - 39) / 14 = X

53/14 = X

3.78 = X

53 - (14 x 3) = X

11 = X

Therefore, Lisa can buy 3 T-shirts, and she will have 11 dollars left over.

Answers

Answer:

9.5

Step-by-step explanation:

When rounding to the nearest tenth, check to see what the hundredths place value is.

If it is 0.05 or greater, we will round the tenths place up one.

If not, the tenths place will remain the same.

Since 9.52 has a hundredths place value of 0.02, we will keep the same tenths place value.

So, the correct answer is 9.5
