the sale tax for an item was $32.80 and it cost $410 before tax find the sales tax rate write the answer as a percentage

Answers

Answer 1

All we need to do is, divide the tax cost by the total cost of the item.

32.80 / 410 = 0.08

Multiply to find the percentage.

0.08 * 100% = 8%

Therefore, the tax rate is 8%.

Best of Luck!

An account earned interest of 5% per year. The beginning balance was $250. The equation t=log1.05E250 represents the situation, where t is the time in years and E is the ending balance.

Answers

Answer:

3 years

Step-by-step explanation:

The number of years that required for opening an account is shown below:

Given that

Opening balance = $250

ending balance = $289.41

t = [tex]log_{1.05} \frac{E}{250}[/tex]

Interest rate = 5%

Based on the above information, the number of years required is

[tex]t = log_{1.05} \frac{289.41}{250}[/tex]

= 3 years

Hence, the number of years required to open an account is 3 years and the same is to be considered  by using the above formula

An electrician disconnected 5 wires of different colors from their respective connections and forgot the order in which they were placed. Assuming you connect them by trying different sorts and that the last one is correct, how many tries must you do before getting it right?

Answers

Answer:

120 tries

Step-by-step explanation:

You can try 5 different wires in the first connection.

Then you have 4 wires left, so you try 4 wires in the second connection. Remember, you are now trying 4 wires for each of the first 5, so up to here you already made 4 * 5 tries = 20 tries.

Next you try 3, then 2, then you have 1 left.

Number of tries: 5 * 4 * 3 * 2 * 1 = 120

Answer: 120 tries

what is (3⁴×5⁴)-³ =?​

Answers

Answer:

The solution to the given expression is 1/2562890625

Step-by-step explanation:

(3⁴ × 5⁴)⁻²

Simplify the terms inside the parentheses. 3⁴ × 5⁴ is the same as 15⁴ because even though the base numbers are different, the exponents are the same which makes it similar.

(15⁴)⁻²

Now, for this step, we are going to add the exponents because when multiplying, the exponential numbers add together. So 4 × -2 = -8.

15⁻⁸

Since we can not have a negative exponent, we are going to change this into a fraction. We do this by putting this term in a fraction where 1 is the numerator and the term is the denominator.

1 / 15⁻⁸

Now, we simplify the term on the bottom.

1 / 2562890625

So, this is the solution to the problem.

x = [tex]\frac{8}{13}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

6(8x - 1) = 9(x + 2) ← distribute parenthesis on both sides

48x - 6 = 9x + 18 ( subtract 9x from both sides )

39x - 6 = 18 ( add 6 to both sides )

39x = 24 ( divide both sides by 39 )

The second month, with a z-score of 1. b.) The second month, with a score of 1.67. c.) The first month, with a score of 0.9. d.) The first month, with a z-score of 1.5.

Answers

Answer:

The  correct option is D

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that  

     The mean for the first month is  [tex]\mu _ 1 = \$ 200[/tex]

       The standard deviation for first month is [tex]\sigma_1 = \$ 30[/tex]

       The  sale on 15th of  first month is  [tex]x_1 = \$245[/tex]

       The mean for the second  month is [tex]\mu _ 2 = \$220[/tex]

         The standard deviation for second month is [tex]\sigma_2 = \$ 50[/tex]

         The  sale on 15th of  second month is [tex]x_2 = \$ 270[/tex]

Generally the z-score is mathematically represented as

         [tex]z = \frac{x - \mu }{ \sigma}[/tex]

For the  first month  

         [tex]z_1 = \frac{x_1 - \mu_1 }{ \sigma_1 }[/tex]

         [tex]z_1 = \frac{ 245 - 200 }{ 30 }[/tex]

         [tex]z_1 = 1.5[/tex]

For the second  month

         [tex]z_1 = \frac{x_2 - \mu_2 }{ \sigma_2 }[/tex]

         [tex]z_1 = \frac{ 270 - 220 }{ 50 }[/tex]

         [tex]z_1 = 1[/tex]          

Answer: 1.5

PLEASE HELP ME ASAP Tyler needs to score 100 points on his final math test of the year to improve his average score from 76 to 79. How many math tests are there in a year?

Answers

Answer:

8 tests

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's call the number of total math tests in a year as x. Therefore, excluding the final test, the total number of tests in a year is x - 1. Since his original average was 76, that means that the sum of his test scores without the final was 76(x - 1), and because getting a 100 on his final gets him a 79, the sum of all his scores is 76(x - 1) + 100, which will be equal to 79 * x, therefore:

76(x - 1) + 100 = 79x

76x - 76 + 100 = 79x

24 = 3x

x = 8 tests

A similar follow-up study is done on a sample of 25 meat-lovers who never eat vegetables, again randomly selected from the same general population (population mean life expectancy = 75, population standard deviation = 5). This new sample of meat-eaters live to an average age of 77. What is the lower limit and upper limit of the 95% confidence interval for the life expectancy of this sample of meat-lovers?

Answers

Answer:

The lower limit is  75.04

The upper  limit is  78.96

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

   The sample size is  [tex]n = 25[/tex]

   The sample mean is  [tex]\= x = 77[/tex]

    The standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 5[/tex]

Given that the confidence level is 95%  then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

        [tex]\alpha = (100 - 95)\%[/tex]

         [tex]\alpha = 0.05[/tex]

The critical value for  [tex]\frac{\alpha }{2}[/tex] obtained from the normal distribution table is  

     [tex]Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 1.96[/tex]

Generally the margin of error is mathematically represented as

       [tex]E = Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } * \frac{\sigma }{\sqrt{n} }[/tex]

=>   [tex]E = 1.96* \frac{5 }{\sqrt{25} }[/tex]

=>    [tex]E = 1.96[/tex]

The 95% confidence interval is mathematically represented as

        [tex]\= x -E < \mu < \= x +E[/tex]

=>   [tex]77 - 1.96 < \mu < 77 + 1.96[/tex]

=>   [tex]75.04 < \mu < 78.96[/tex]

NASA is building a satellite that is roughly the shape of a sphere. If the satellite weighs 14.25 pounds per cubic foot before launch, and has a diameter of 4.7 feet, what is the total weight in pounds of the satellite on Earth? Use π = 3.14.

Answers

Answer:

774 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

weight = volume * density

radius = diameter/2

volume = (4/3)πr^3

volume = (4/3)(3.14)(4.7/2 ft)^3

weight = (4/3)(3.14)(4.7/2 ft)^3 * 14.25 lb/ft^3

weight = 774 lb

Step-by-step explanation:

Given AP where:

a₄ = 2a₂ - 1a₆ = 7

To find

a₁ = ?

Since

a₄ = a₁ + 3da₂ = a₁ + da₆ = a₁ + 5d

Initial equations will change as:

a₁ + 3d = 2(a₁ + d) - 1  ⇒  a₁ + 3d = 2a₁ + 2d - 1 ⇒ a₁ = d + 1a₁ + 5d = 7 ⇒ a₁ = 7 - 5d

Comparing the above:

d + 1 = 7 - 5d6d = 6d = 1

Then:

a₁ = d + 1 = 1 + 1 = 2a₁ = 2

The first term is 2

solve 7x-3y=14 for y​

Answers

Answer:

y = - 14/3 +7x/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The reason for my answer is because let us move the -3y so it is before the equal sign. Let us also move 7x to the other side but make it so 14 would be to the right side of the equal sign. Now, that would mean 7x would be after 14. Our equation is now -3y=14-7x. We need to divide both sides of the equation by -3. There, we just divided -3y by 3 which equals to y. 14 divided by -3 equals to -14/3. -7x divided by -3 would equal to +7x/3. Finally, we get the answer of y = - 14/3 +7x/3.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

● 7x-3y = 14

This a 1st degree equation with two variables.

● 7x-3y = 14

Substract 7x from both sides

● 7x-7x -3y = 14-7x

● -3y = 14-7x

Mulitply both sides by -1

● (-1)×(-3y) = (-1)×(14-7x)

● 3y = -14+7x

● 3y = 7x+14

Divide both sides by 3

● 3y/3 = (7x+14)/3

● y = (7/3)x + 14/3

An engineer has designed a valve that will regulate water pressure on an automobile engine. The valve was tested on 210 engines and the mean pressure was 5.0 pounds/square inch (psi). Assume the population standard deviation is 0.9. The engineer designed the valve such that it would produce a mean pressure of 4.9 psi. It is believed that the valve does not perform to the specifications. A level of significance of 0.02 will be used. Find the value of the test statistic.

Answers

Answer:

The test statistics is [tex]t = 1.610[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

    The  sample size is  n  =  210  

     The  sample  mean is  [tex]\= x = 5.0 \ pounds /square \ inch[/tex]

       The  standard deviation is  [tex]\sigma = 0.9 \[/tex]

       The  population   mean is  [tex]\mu = 4.9 \ psi[/tex]

Generally the test statistics is mathematically evaluated as

             [tex]t = \frac{\= x - \mu}{ \frac{\sigma }{ \sqrt{n} } }[/tex]
