The sales tax in a certain city is 2%. A man buys a camera and pays a sales tax of $3.20. What was the cost of the camera, exclusive of the sales tax?

Answers

Answer 1

Divide the amount of tax by the rate of tax.

3.20 / 0.02 = 160

The cost of the camera is $160

Answer 2

If the sales tax in a certain city is 2% and man paid sales tax of $3.20 then the cost of the camera, exclusive of sales tax is $156.80.

What is sales tax?

Sales tax is the tax that is paid by buyer to seller on the amount of goods sold.

How to find cost?

We have been given that sales tax in a certain city is 2% and sales tax paid by man for camera is $3.20 and we have to find the cost of the product excluding sales tax.

Sales tax=tax percentage*total price

3.20=2/100*total price

Total price=3.20*100/2

=$160

Price excluding sales tax=total price - sales tax

=160-3.20

=157.80

Hence if the sales tax in a certain city is 2% and man paid sales tax of $3.20 then the cost of the camera, exclusive of sales tax is $156.80.

(will mark brainliest <3)

Answers

Answer:  70 ft^2   ( choice D )

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

Work Shown:

L = 8 ft = lengthW = 3 ft = widthH = 1 ft = height

SA = surface area of the rectangular prism (aka block or box)

SA = 2*(LW + LH + WH)

SA = 2*(8*3 + 8*1 + 3*1)

SA = 2*(24 + 8 + 3)

SA = 2*(35)

SA = 70 square feet

This is the amount of wrapping paper you would need to cover all six sides of the box. This assumes that there are no gaps or overlaps.

Step-by-step explanation:

The area (A) of a rectangle is calculated as

A = length × breadth

   = (2 + [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] )(4-2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] ) ← expand using FOIL

   = 8 - 4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] + 4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] - 4 ← collect like terms

   = 4 units²

--------------------------------------------------------

The opposite sides of a rectangle are congruent , so

perimeter = 2(4 - 2 [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex]) + 2(2 + [tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] ) ← distribute parenthesis

                 = 8 - 4[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] + 4 + 2[tex]\sqrt{2}[/tex] ← collect like terms

An employee is scheduled to work 40 hours per week at a base rate of $18.50 per hour. In addition to the 40 scheduled hours, the employee is asked to work 8 hours of overtime for one week due to staffing shortages. If overtime is paid at a rate of 1.5 times the base rate, how much will the employee earn for the week? (use $xxx.Xx format)

Answers

Answer:

$962.00

Step-by-step explanation:

We can start from the first sentence of the word problem and work from there.

First, the employee is working for 40 hours at $18.50 per hour. This means that for each hour, the employee is gaining $18.50 . This can be represented as $18.50 * 40 = $740 for their base pay.

Next, the employee works 8 hours of overtime at 1.5 * base pay (18.50). For each hour of overtime they work, they earn 1.5 * 18.50 = $27.75 dollars. Their earnings from overtime work for the week can be represented as

8 * 27.75 = $222

Because all the employee's hours are encompassed in overtime and base pay, we can add the two together to get

740 + 222 = $962.00 for their total pay for the week

Select the two values of x that are roots of this equatio 2x - 5 = - 3x ^ 2

Answers

alright I can help!

so to find the two values of x that are roots of the equation we need to put the variables all on one side so that we can set up the quadratic formula.

3x^2+2x-5=0 (the -3x^2 becomes positive when moved across the equal sign)

now we can set up the quadratic formula. the equation is x= (-b+-(sqrt of b^2 -4ac))/ 2a

so now we just plug in our variables.

x= (-2+-(sqrt of 2^2 -4×3×-5))/ 2×3

x= (-2+-8)/6

now we just seperate the equations so that we have the two roots. and then just solve!

x= (-2-8)/6 -> x= -5/3

x= (-2+8)/6 -> x=1

hope this helps! best wishes and best of luck!!

What are the solutions to the system of equations?

{y=2x²−6x+3
{y=x−2

Answers

Answer:

x = 1, y = −1

x = 5/2, y = 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question given above, the following data were obtained:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

We can obtain the solutions to the equation as follow:

y = 2x² − 6x + 3 ........ (1)

y = x − 2 ...... (2)

Substitute the value of y in equation 2 into equation 1

y = 2x² − 6x + 3

y = x − 2

2x² − 6x + 3 = x − 2

Rearrange

2x² − 6x − x + 3 + 2 = 0

2x² − 7x + 5 = 0

Solve by factorization

Obtain the product of 2x² and 5. The result is 10x².

Find two factors of 10x² such that their sum will result to −7x.

The factors are −2x and −5x.

Replace −7x in the equation above with −2x and −5x as shown below:

2x² − 2x − 5x + 5 = 0

2x(x − 1) − 5(x − 1) = 0

(x − 1)(2x − 5) = 0

x − 1 = 0 or 2x − 5 = 0

x = 1 or 2x = 5

x = 1 or x = 5/2

Substitute the value of x into equation 2 to obtain y

y = x − 2

x = 1

y = 1 − 2

y = −1

x = 5/2

y = x − 2

y = 5/2 − 2

y = (5 − 4)/2

y = 1/2

SUMMARY:

x = 1, y = −1

x = 5/2, y = 1/2

B. the type of roads Larry drives on
C. the type of car Larry drives

Answers

My best guess would be that the independent variable is A. the amount of miles Larry drives.
An independent variable is one that isn't changed by the other variables you are trying to measure.
The amount of miles Larry drives doesn’t depend on anything in this situation.
The question only mentions gallons of gas and miles so I would think you disregard the type of roads Larry drives on and type of car Larry drives.
The amount of gasoline Larry uses is a dependent variable because it depends on the amount of miles Larry drives.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

12mn+9t²-14mt

the coefficient of mt is -14

The coefficient of the given expansion 4m(3n-2t)+3t(3t-2m)​ will be -14.

What is expansion?

Expanded form is the term used in mathematics to refer to the process of expanding a number to convey the value of every digit and place value.

When a mathematical object is increased by a multiplier that is bigger in actual values than one, an expansion follows.

In another word, if you solve a factor by opening the bracket then you will go to get on some expanded term called expansion.

In mathematics, all real-life problems can be converted into equations which are sometimes in form of factors and we need to expand them to create solutions.

Given that

⇒ 4m(3n-2t)+3t(3t-2m)​

⇒  12mn -8mt + 9t² - 6mt

⇒  12mn + 9t² + 14 mt

Hence it's clear that the coefficient of mt will be -14.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number is in the form of aabb.

We can put it as:

aabb = 11*(100a + b) = 11*(99a + a + b)

The number is a perfect square so it must be divisible by 11.

It is divisible by 11 if (a + b) is divisible by 11..

On the other hand, b = 0, 1, 4, 5, 6, 9 as the last digit of a perfect square.

Also, both a and b must be within (0,9) interval.

Considering the above conditions we have options:

a,b = 2,9 or 5,6 or 6,5 or 7,4

Problem:

What is the remainder when the dividend is xy-3, the divisor is y, and the quotient is x-1. ?

Step-by-step explanation:

Dividend=quotient×divisor+remainder

So we have

xy-3=(x-1)×(y)+remainder

xy-3=(xy-y)+remainder *distributive property

Now we just need to figure out what polynomial goes in for the remainder so this will be a true identity.

We need to get rid of minus y so we need plus y in the remainder.

We also need minus 3 in the remainder.

So the remainder is y-3.

Let's try it out:

xy-3=(xy-y)+remainder

xy-3=(xy-y)+(y-3)

xy-3=xy-3 is what we wanted so we are done here.

In ΔABC, ∠A = 50° and the external bisectors of ∠B and ∠C meet at O as shown in figure. The measure of ∠BOC is

Answers

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

Look at Triangle ABC, The rays meet at line BC and they are both from the interior point A. So this means that AB=AC. This makes ABC a isosceles triangle. Using the isosceles triangle theorem, Angle B and Angle C measure is equal to each other so

[tex]50 + x + x = 180[/tex]

[tex]50 + 2x = 180[/tex]

[tex]2x = 130[/tex]

[tex]x = 65[/tex]

This means angle b and C of the triangle ABC measure is 65.

External bisector bisect a figure that it makes the original angle split into half that they are equal to each other.

This means the angle below Angle B and angle C measure is 32.5. We can find the measure of Angle B and C in triangle BOC. This is a isosceles triangle as well so

[tex]32.5 + 65 + x = 180[/tex]

[tex]98.5 + x = 180[/tex]

[tex]x = 81.5[/tex]

Angle C is 81.5 as well so

[tex]81.5 + 81.5 = 163[/tex]

Find angle o
