Johanna purchases a book for $14.95. There is a sales tax of 6.5%. How much is the final price with tax? What is the total? What is the percent? Use the formula amount = total x percent to find the amount of the sales tax. To find the final price, add the cost of the book to the amount of tax.

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

Tax = $0.97175

Final Price = $15.92175

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the amount of tax of an amount you just must multiply this figure by the percentage of the tax expressed in decimal numbers.

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

Data:

Price = $14.95

Tax rate = 6.5%

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

Calculation of tax:

amount = total x percent = $14.95 x 6.5% = $14.95 x 0.065 = $0.97175

Calculation of the final price with tax:

Amount = book cost + tax = $14.95 + $0.97175 = $15.92175

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

Tax = $0.97175

Final Price = $15.92175

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

Hope this helps!

Answer 2
Answer: Okay so 6.5%  of $14.95 is 0.97175. That rounds to 0.97. And to get the total we just add 0.97 to 14.95. Our answer is 15.92. However if you don't want to round then you would add 14.95 and 0.97175 . This would give you15.92175. Hope this helps!

Find the coordinates of m, the midpoint of gh, for g(8,-6) and h(-14,12)

Answers

Answer:

m = (- 3, 3 )

Step-by-step explanation:

given endpoints (x₁, y₁ ) and (x₂, y₂ ) then the midpoint M is

M = ( (x_(1)+x_(2) )/(2) , (y_(1)+y_(2) )/(2) ) ← midpoint formula

let (x₁, y₁ ) = g (8, - 6 ) and (x₂, y₂ ) = h (- 14, 12 ) , them midpoint m is

m = ( (8-14)/(2) , (-6+12)/(2) ) = ( (-6)/(2) , (6)/(2) ) = (- 3, 3 )

What is x^2 + 3x - 10 =0

Answers

x^2 + 3x - 10 = 0 \n \n (x - 2)(x + 5) = 0 \n \n x = 2, -5 \n \n

The final result is: x = 2, -5.
(x - 5)(x + 2) = 0 

Set both factors equal to 0 
x - 5 = 0 
x + 2 = 0 

Solve for x and the answer is 
x = 5 
x = -2

Crystal said she used the distributive property to evaluate 5(4 + 7). These are the steps she took:5(4 + 7) = 5⋅4 + 7 = 20 + 7 = 27
What mistake did Crystal make? What is the correct answer to 5(4 + 7)?
Type a paragraph

Answers

The value of 5(4 + 7) is 55.

It is required to find the correct answer.

What is simplification?

Simplification means simplifying processes involved in work towards consistency of efforts, costs and time. It eliminates useless and disadvantageous (or unnecessary) diversity and variety.

Given that:

By the Distributive Property

If a, b, c are real numbers, then

a*(b+c)=a*b+a*c

Crystal's did mistake was that she distributed the 5 only to the 4, not to the 5 to 7 as well.

First distribute and then multiply, we get

The correct step should have been

= 5(4 + 7)

= 5⋅4 + 5⋅7.  

= 20 + 35.

= 55

Therefore, the value of 5(4 + 7) is 55.

Answer:

Crystal's mistake was that she distributed the 5 only to the 4, not to the 7 as well.

The correct step should have been 5(4 + 7) = 5⋅4 + 5⋅7.  

Using the distributive property correctly would give the sum of the two products, 20 + 35. The value of 5(4 + 7) is 55.

Fernando is starting a new sales job, and needs to decide which of two salary plans to choose from. For plan A, he will earn $100/week plus 15% commission on all sales. For plan B, he will earn $150/week plus 10% commission on all sales.a. Write an expression for each salary plan if s is Fernando's total weekly sales
b. For what amount of weekly sales us plan B better than plan A?

Answers

Answer:

a)

Expression for plan A:

Total weekly earnings = 100+(15)/(100) s

Expression for plan B:

Total weekly earnings = 150+(10)/(100) s

b)

As long as s is less than 1000 plan B is profitable.

Step-by-step explanation:

a)

Expression for plan A:

Total weekly earnings = 100+(15)/(100) s

Expression for plan B:

Total weekly earnings = 150+(10)/(100) s

b)

For plan B to be better the amount earned by plan B for a specific number of sales should be greater than amount earned by plan A.

Therefore, we can write the following inequality:

150+(10)/(100) s\geq100+(15)/(100) s

Now we can simplify the above inequality to find at which value of s it will be profitable to used plan B.

50\geq(15)/(100) s-(10)/(100) s

50\geq(5)/(100) s

10\geq(1)/(100) s

1000\geq s

So as long as s is less than 1000 plan B is profitable.



Expression A:   S= 100+ 100(0.15y)        y=Commission

Expression B:   S= 150+ 150(0.10y)            

Now to get Part B done. Plug in numbers for Y and use the results as the sales continue to increases. For example, start with 5 sales, then go to 10 then 15, and so on and so fourth. Hope I was able help you understand the question a little bit more! :)
