Felipa says she has an easy way to estimate the sales tax when she makes a purchase. The sales tax in her city is 9.05%. She knows this is a little less than 10%.

Answers

Answer 1

The estimate of the tax when a purchase is made in her city with a sales tax of 9.05% are as follows;

a) 10% converted to a fraction is [tex]\dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]

b) An estimate of the amount Felipa pays as tax is $9.5

What is an estimate?

An estimate is a rough calculation that gives a value that is close to the actual value.

a)The sales tax in her city = 9.05

The sales tax is approximately 10%

To convert 10% to fraction we have;

10% = 0.1

[tex]0.1 = \dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]

[tex]10\% = \dfrac{1}{10}[/tex]

b) The estimate sales tax that Felipa would pay on a dress of $95 can be found as follows;

10% of $95 is found as follows;

[tex]\dfrac{1}{10} \times \$95 = \$9.5[/tex]

10% of $9.5 is found as follows;

The estimate of her tax is $9.5

The actual amount she pays as tax is found as follows;

[tex]\dfrac{1}{10} \times \$9.5 = \$0.95[/tex]

0.0005 = [tex]\frac{5}{10000}[/tex]

[tex]\dfrac{5}{10000} \times \$95 = \$0.0475[/tex]

9.05% = 0.0905

0.0905 = 0.10 - 0.01 + 0.0005

Her tax is $9.5 - $0.95 + $0.0475 = $8.5975

Felipa's tax if she buys a dress of $95 is $8.5975

Part of the question, based on a similar question online, includes;

a) To convert 10% into fractions

b) To provide an estimate of the tax payable on a $95 dress

is going to invest $820 and leave it in an account for 19 years. Assuming the interest is compounded quarterly, what interest rate, to the nearest tenth of a percent, would be required in order for John to end up with $1,830?

Answers

The rate of interest for an amount which is compounded quarterly is 4.25%

Given,

The principal amount invested by Oliver, P = $820

The time period of the investment, t = 19 years

The interest is compounded quarterly, n = 4

The amount after 19 years, A = $1830

The compound interest formula;

A = [tex]P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]

We have to find the rate of interest;

For that;

A = [tex]P (1+\frac{r}{n} )^{nt}[/tex]

1830 = 820 [tex](1+\frac{r}{4} )^{76}[/tex]

1830/820 = [tex](1+\frac{r}{4} )^{76}[/tex]

₇₆√1830/820 = 1 + r/4

₇₆√1830/820 - 1 = r/4

r = 4 (₇₆√1830/820 - 1)

r = 0.042 x 100

r = 4.25%

That is,

The rate of interest for an amount which is compounded quarterly is 4.25%

Answers

The measure that best describes the change in the location of the drone is D. -26 1/10m

What is a fraction?

A fraction is simply a piece of a whole. The number is represented mathematically as a quotient where the numerator and denominator are split. In a simple fraction, the numerator as well as the denominator are both integers.

In this case, the underwater drone is located 9 3/5 meters below sea level and the drone is moved to a location that is 15 1/2 meters below sea level

The change will be:

= - 9 3/5 - 15 1/2

= - 9 6/10 - 15 5/10

= - 25 1/10

The change is - 25 1/10m.

f(x)=

Answers

The equation of the parabola from the vertex is f(x) = -3(x - 5)² + 9

How to determine the equation of the parabola?

The equation of the function is given as

f(x) = 3x²

Also, we have

Vertex = (5, 9)

The form of the equation is given as

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

Where

Vertex = (h, k)

This means that

Vertex = (h, k) = (5, 9)

Substitute (h, k) = (5, 9) in the equation f(x) = a(x - h)² + k

So, we have

f(x) = a(x - 5)² + 9

This also means that

f(x) = -3(x - 5)² + 9

The -3 is gotten from f(x) = -3x²

Hence, the equation of the parabola is f(x) = -3(x - 5)² + 9

Answers

The required equation is y = 23x - 9 which represents the total number of jumps.

What is the Linear equation?

A linear equation is defined as an equation in which the highest power of the variable is always one.

Mrs. Croaker’s class calculated that their class frog, named Fred, jumped 23 times every day, for 14 days in a row.

the total number of jumps = total days × number of jumps per day

the total number of jumps = 14 × 23

the total number of jumps = 322

We can see that two points are (1, 23) and (14, 322)

y - 14 = (322-23/14-1)(x - 1)

y - 14 = 23(x - 1)

y = 23x - 23 + 14

y = 23x - 9

Therefore, the required equation is y = 23x - 9 which represents the total number of jumps.

What is amplitude?

A sound is a type of energy that is created when objects vibrate. For it to spread, a medium is needed. As a result, sound cannot travel in a vacuum because there is nothing for the sound waves to travel through. The object's back-and-forth movement creates the sound. Sound vibration is the name for this. Additionally called oscillatory motion. Oscillation describes the regular rhythmic back-and-forth movement.

We know that the general equation of a sine wave is:

[tex]$$y(t)=A \{Sin}(W(t-C))+D$$[/tex]

where,

A- Amplitude

D = Average of Max(y) and Min(y);

[tex]W=\frac{2 \pi}{\text { Period }}[/tex]

C - Phase shift on y(axis)

Part a)

Given Max T= 94 and Min T = 66

Hence,

D = (Max+Min)/2 = 80

A = Max - D = 94-80= 14

Since period is 24 hours, so W = 2\pi/24 = \pi/12

Thus the function till now is:

[tex]T(t)=14Sin(\frac{\pi}{12}(t-C))+80[/tex]

Given low temperature occurs at 3 AM so,

T(3)=66

Solving this we get C = 9

Hence,

[tex]T(t)=14Sin(\frac{\pi}{12}(t-9))+80[/tex]

Part b)

Given Max T= 58 and Average = 45

Hence,

D = 45

A = Max - D = 58-45= 13

Since the period is 24 hours, so W = [tex]2\pi/24 = \pi/12[/tex]

Thus the function till now is:

[tex]T(t)=13Sin(\frac{\pi}{12}(t-C))+45[/tex]

Given high temperature occurs at 5 PM so,

T(17)=58

Solving this we get C = 11

Hence,

[tex]T(t)=13Sin(\frac{\pi}{12}(t-11))+45[/tex]

The temperature at 4 AM is:

[tex]T(4)=13Sin(\frac{\pi}{12}(4-11))+45 = 32.44[/tex]

Part c)

Given Max T= 86 and Min T = 64

Hence,

D = (Max+Min)/2 = 75

A = Max - D = 86-75= 11

Since period is 24 hours, so W = 2\pi/24 = \pi/12

Thus the function till now is:

[tex]T(t)=11Sin(\frac{\pi}{12}(t-C))+75[/tex]

Given average temperature occurs at 8 AM so,

T(8)=75

Solving this we get C = 8

Hence,

[tex]T(t)=11Sin(\frac{\pi}{12}(t-8))+75[/tex]

Now,

We need to find t such that T(t) = 67.

[tex]67=11Sin(\frac{\pi}{12}(t-8))+75[/tex]

[tex]\Rightarrow t=4.88945 \approx 4.89 hours[/tex]

Hence, The equation for temperature 67, gives the time as 4.8 hours.

Answers

The growth follows a linear equation, for that we need

y = mx + c

The number of months would be the x axis as that is the thing changing, and the height would be the y axis as that is the thing being measured to change.

That now gives us

H = mM + c

m is the gradient and c is the y intercept

We can figure out the gradient because after 1 month the height increases by 1 so the change in y vs the change in x is 1 so the gradient must be 1.

The y intercept in this case is the initial condition and therefore is 11cm.

The final answer being

H = M + 11
