A hotel manager found that his gross receipts for the​ day, including a ​5% sales​ tax, were ​$1645.35. Find the amount of sales tax collected.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The amount of sales tax collected is $78.35

Step-by-step explanation:

Percentages

The gross receipts for the day were $1645.35, including a 5% sales tax.

If a percentage is already included (added) to a certain quantity, then it's not the original quantity or 100%.

The problem states that the gross receipts already include a 5% sales tax, thus the receipts are 100+5=105% of the net sales.

This means the net sales were $1645.35 / 105 * 100 = $1567

Subtracting $$1645.35 - $1567 = $78.35 we get the amount of sales tax.

The amount of sales tax collected is $78.35

A school sold brownies and cupcakes at a bake sale. There were 592 total items available for sale. All 286 brownies were sold. Of the cupcakes for sale, 49 did not sell. How many cupcakes did sell at the bake sale? Select the correct equation to solve. A. 592 - 286 - 49 = c B. 592 - 286 + 49 = c C. 592 + 286 - 49 = c

Answers

Answer:

A. 592 - 286 - 49 = c

Step-by-step explanation:

A school sold brownies and cupcakes at a bake sale. There were 592 total items available for sale. All 286 brownies were sold. Of the cupcakes for sale, 49 did not sell. How many cupcakes did sell at the bake sale?

Total number = 592

Total number of brownies = 286

The cup cakes for sale = 592 - 286

= 306 cupcakes.

49 of the cupcakes did not sell

The cupcakes that sold = 306 - 49

= 257 cupcakes were sold.

Therefore, the correct equation to solve. A. 592 - 286 - 49 = c

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan40° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{opp}{20}[/tex] ( multiply both sides by 20 )

20 × tan40° = opp , thus

opp = 20 × 0.839 ≈ 16.78 , then

height of traffic light = 16,78 + 5 = 21.78 ft

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

Using the tangent ratio in the right triangle

tan42.71° = [tex]\frac{opposite}{adjacent}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{150}{d}[/tex] ( d is the distance between store and bank )

Multiply both sides by d

d × tan42.71° = 150 ( divide both sides by tan42.71° )

d = [tex]\frac{150}{tan42.71}[/tex] = [tex]\frac{150}{0.923}[/tex] = 162.5 m

Answers

Answer:

5.6 * 10^17.

Step-by-step explanation:

There are 17 digits after the 5 .

So it's 5.6 * 10^17.

Note that the first number must lie between 1 and 10.

I don't really understand which number we have to write in scientifc notation but I am assuming it is the number 560,000,000,000,000,000.

Ok so, 560,000,000,000,000,000 in scientific notation is 5.6 x 10^17.

This is because if you count the number of spaces behind the decimal point of 5.6 it is equal to 17. So, you would write the answer 5.6 x 10^17.

Answer:

y = 2x + 10

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex] x + 7 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - [tex]\frac{1}{2}[/tex]

Given a line with slope m then the slope of a line perpendicular to it is

[tex]m_{perpendicular}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{m}[/tex] = - [tex]\frac{1}{-\frac{1}{2} }[/tex] = 2 , thus

y = 2x + c ← is the partial equation

To find c substitute (- 2, 6) into the partial equation

6 = - 4 + c ⇒ c = 6 + 4 = 10

y = 2x + 10 ← equation of perpendicular line

<A, <C, <B
<A, <B, C​

Answers

Answer:

The order of the angles of Δ ABC from smallest to biggest is

∠B < ∠C < ∠A B

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a fact about a triangle

The longest side is opposite to the greatest angleThe shortest side is opposite to the smallest angle

Let us use this fact to solve our question

In Δ ABC

∵ AB = 10 inches

∵ BC = 14 inches

∵ AC = 8 inches

→ Find the longest and shortest sides

BC is the longest side

AC is the shortest side

∵ BC is opposite to ∠A

∠A is the biggest angle in measure

∵ AC is opposite to ∠B

∠B is the smallest angle in measure

The order of the angles of Δ ABC from smallest to biggest is

   ∠B < ∠C < ∠A
