Jon buys a shirt for $40 and then buys socks for $15. He lives in Maine and their
sales tax rate is 5%. How much will his sales tax be?

Answers

Answer 1

Jon pays $40 and $15. This means that he pays a total of $55. You multiply the total cost by 0.05, which is $2.75. To convert a number to a percentage, multiply it by 100. So, 0.05 as a percent is equal to 5%.

His sales tax will be $2.75.

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

Thomas went for a long hike and burned 675 calories in 2 hours. Marvin decided to go for a bike ride and burned 1,035 calories in 3 hours. Who burned the most calories per hour? Let t represent Thomas's calories burned and m represent Marvin's calories burned. Equivalent Ratio 1: Equivalent Ratio 2: burned the most calories per hour.

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

I am not sure I fully understand what your teacher wants from you, but I would say we only need to define the burning rate per hour for both people, and with that normed rate (number / hour) we can answer the main question directly.

Thomas burned 675 cal/ 2 hours.

by dividing to and bottom by 2 (it is important to do the same action on the top and the bottom to keep the value of the ratio unchanged) we get

337.5 cal / hour

and Marvin burned 1035 cal / 3 hours.

so, the same trick, this time dividing to and bottom by 3 to norm the whole ratio to a 1 hour baseline :

345 cal / hour

so, Marvin burned more calories per hour.

What is the measure of each intercepted arc for each inscribed angle of a regular hexagon inscribed in a circle?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The inscribed angles are made up of the remote interior angles of this hexagon, of which each of them measures 120 degrees. That means that if this is measure of the inscribed angle, the arc this angle intercepts is twice the degree measure of the inscribed angle. The arcs then will all measure 240 degrees.

Express 60 as the product of its prime factors. Write the prime factors in accending order and give your answer in index form.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Prime numbers are basically numbers that don't have any factors that multiply to get that number except for 1 and the number itself. (For example: 2, 3, 5, 7, 11, 13 and so on are all prime numbers)

The question is asking to express 60 into prime numbers. 60 is 30*2, and since 2 is a prime number, we can circle it. Then we continue on with 30, which can divide into 15*2. Again, since 2 is a prime number, we circle it, while 15 can be factored further because 5*3 is 15. Since 5 and 3 are prime numbers, we circle them too. In the end, we have the prime numbers 5, 3, 2, and 2. There are two 2's in our factorization, so therefore we can simplify that to 2^2 since they ask for your answer in index form. There is only one 5 and one 3, and they ask to write them  in asscending order, and so the answer would be (2^2)*3*5. Hope this helps!

Cos[tex]\theta_{1}=\frac{7}{25}[/tex]

Answer:

cos theta = 7/25

Step-by-step explanation:

sin theta = opp / hyp

We can find the adj side by using the pythagorean theorem

adj ^2 + opp ^2 = hyp^2

adj^2 + (-24)^2 = 25^2

adj^2 +576 = 625

adj^2 =625 -576

adj^2 = 49

Taking the square root of each side

adj = 7

Since we are in the 4th quadrant, adj is positive

cos theta = adj / hyp

cos theta = 7/25

Answers

Answers:

choice A)   y = 0x

choice D)  y = 0/x

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

Explanation:

Choice A is the same as y = 0 because 0x turns into 0. Multiplying 0 with any number always leads to 0.

Similarly, choice D is the same as y = 0 as well. Dividing 0 over any nonzero value leads to 0. Note the key term "nonzero" here. We cannot have 0 in the denominator. So x = 0 is not allowed for choice D.

So for any nonzero x, we have 0x and 0/x result in the same thing.

Extra info:

Choice B can be ruled out because something like x = 2 leads to y = 2.

Choice C is ruled out because we can never have 0 in the denominator.

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

Explanation:

1/2 = 4/8 after multiplying top and bottom by 8

So the mixed number 7  1/2 is the same as 7  4/8

We can convert to an improper fraction like so

7  4/8

7 + 4/8

7*(8/8) + 4/8

56/8 + 4/8

(56+4)/8

60/8

Notice how dividing 60 over 8 leads to 7 remainder 4. Think of it like having 60 cookies and you want to share them amongst 8 friends. Each friend gets 7 whole cookies (7*8 = 56 taken so far) and then we have 60-56 = 4 left over as the remainder.

Through similar steps, you should find that the mixed number 1  7/8 converts to the improper fraction 15/8.

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

To rephrase the problem with improper fractions would be to say:

"The electrician needs to buy 60/8 feet of wire. There are 15/8 feet of wire in each spool. How many spools should the electrician buy?"

Let x be the answer to that question.

We multiply the number of spools (x) by the amount of feet of wire per spool (15/8) to get the expression (15/8)x

Set this equal to the target 60/8 and solve for x

(15/8)x = 60/8

15x = 60 .... multiply both sides by 8 to clear out the fractions

x = 60/15

x = 4

The electrician needs to buy exactly 4 spools

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

A different approach could have us convert each mixed number into decimal form

7  1/2 = 7 + 1/2 = 7 + 0.5 = 7.5

1  7/8 = 1 + 7/8 = 1 + 0.875 = 1.875

So the electrician needs to buy 7.5 ft total and each spool has 1.875 ft of wire.

Using the same idea as before, we would then have,

1.875x = 7.5

x = (7.5)/(1.875)

x = 4

Find the measure of each angle indicated.
A) 95°
C) 26°
B) 92°
D) 20°

Answers

Answer:

D) 20°

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the triangle sum theorem, you know that every triangle's interior angles add up to 180°. Therefore the bottom triangle's missing angle can be found by giving it the variable x.

57° + 30° + x = 180°

Simplify: 87° + x =180°

x=93°

By the vertical angles theorem, the vertical angle directly across this angle is congruent to this one. Meaning that the top triangle's angle are 67°, 93°, and unknown, which we can assign y. We can use the same method from above here.

67° + 93° + y = 180°

Simplify: 160° + y = 180°

y=20°
