Vincent purchased a scooter for $124 before tax. The store adds a 7.8% sales tax to every purchase. How much did Vincent pay for the scooter, to the nearest penny?

Answers

Answer 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Original price of the scooter = $124

Sales Tax = 7.8%

Price of the scooter after tax = 124 + 7.8%(124)

= 124 + 7.8/100 x 124

= 124 + 3.9/50 x 124

= 124 + 1.95/25 x 124

= 124 + 0.39/5 x 124

= 124 + 0.39 x 24.8

= 124 + 9.672

= 133.672

Therefore, after tax the scooter will cost $133.672.

DUE TONIGHT

Answers

Answer:

One Solution:

y=0.5x-2 ; y=-0.5x+4y=2x+1 ; y=-4x+1

No Solution:

y=0.5x+1 ; y=0.5x+5y=-x-3 ; y=-x+3

Infinity many solutions:

y=-x-2 ; y=-x-2y=3x+2.5 ; y=3x+2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

We will see the system of equations one by one.

First system of Equation:

[tex]y = 0.5x-2\\y=-0.5x+4[/tex]

It can clearly be seen that the two lines formed by the given equations are in opposite direction and they will have one intersection point so only one solution

Second System of Equation:

[tex]y=0.5x+5\\y=0.5x+1[/tex]

This system also has no solution as the equations represent parallel lines and if we try to solve them we will get the solution in the form 0 = constant.

Third System of Equations:

[tex]y =2x+1\\y = -4x+1[/tex]

The given equations will have a unique solution because the lines have different slopes or when graphed, they will have an intersection point.

Fourth System of Equations:

[tex]y=3x+2.5\\y=3x+2.5[/tex]

The lines formed by these lines will overlap each other so there will be infinity many solutions.

Fifth System of Equations:

[tex]y=-x-3\\y=-x+3[/tex]

These equations represent parallel lines so there will be no solution.

Sixth System of Solution:

[tex]y=-x-2\\y=-x-2\\[/tex]

The system will have infinite number of solutions

Hence,

One Solution:

y=0.5x-2 ; y=-0.5x+4y=2x+1 ; y=-4x+1

No Solution:

y=0.5x+1 ; y=0.5x+5y=-x-3 ; y=-x+3

Infinity many solutions:

y=-x-2 ; y=-x-2y=3x+2.5 ; y=3x+2.5

pls tell fast

Answers

Answer:

Value of a =3

Value of b =5

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]If\ the\ polynomial\ p\left(x\right)\ =\ 2x^3\ +\ ax^{2\ }-\ 7x\ +b,\ p\left(1\right)\ =\ 3\ and\ p\left(2\right)\ =\ 19,\ find\ a\ \&\ b[/tex]

We are given p(1)=3 and p(2)=19

Putting x =1 to find p(1)

[tex]p\left(x\right)\ =\ 2x^3\ +\ ax^{2\ }-\ 7x\ +b\\p(1)=2(1)^3+a(1)^2-7(1)+b\\We \ know \ p(1)=3\\3=2+a-7+b\\3=-5+a+b\\a+b=3+5\\a+b=8[/tex]

Now putting x=2 as p(2)=19

[tex]p\left(x\right)\ =\ 2x^3\ +\ ax^{2\ }-\ 7x\ +b\\p(2)=2(2)^3+a(2)^2-7(2)+b\\We \ know \ p(2)=19\\19=2(8)+4a-14+b\\19=16+4a-14+b\\4a+b=19-16+14\\4a+b=17[/tex]

Solving these equations to find values of a and b

[tex]a+b=8---eq(1)\\4a+b=17---eq(2)[/tex]

Subtract both equations

[tex]a+b=8\\4a+b=17\\-\ \ \ - \ \ \ -\\------\\-3a=-9\\a=\frac{-9}{-3}\\a=3[/tex]

So, value of a =3

Now finding value of b bu putting value of a in equation 1

[tex]a+b=8\\3+b=8\\b=8-3\\b=5[/tex]

So, Value of b =5

46 degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

[tex]x = 46[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First I identified that 2 of side lengths are the same, being 5. Then 88° is inbetween them, so I now know that both missing angles will be equal. This works with all triangles, if 2 sides equal the same then 2 angles will be equal.

So now we know a triangles angles always add up to be 180, so now we just subtract and divide.

[tex]180 - 88 = 92[/tex]

So now we know the sum of both missing angles so we can just divide the value in half because both angles are the same.

[tex]92 \div 2 = 46[/tex]

Now we know x=46°

Answer:

x = 7, arc DE = 198°

Step-by-step explanation:

Inscribed angles from the same arc are congruent.

∠ DCE and ∠ DWE are inscribed angles from the same arc DE , thus

12x + 15 = 3x + 78 ( subtract 3x from both sides )

9x + 15 = 78 ( subtract 15 from both sides )

9x = 63 ( divide both sides by 9 )

x = 7

Thus

∠ DCE = 12x + 15 = 12(7) + 15 = 84 + 15 = 99°

The inscribed angle DCE is half the measure of its intercepted arc, thus

arc DE = 2 × 99° = 198°

[BRAINLIEST] To manufacture an automobile requires​ painting, drying, and polishing. Epsilon Motor Company produces three types of​ cars, the​ Delta, the​ Beta, and the Sigma. Each Delta requires hours for​ painting, hours for​ drying, and hours for polishing. A Beta requires hours for​ painting, hours for​ drying, and hours for​ polishing, and a Sigma requires hours for​ painting, for​ drying, and for polishing. If the company has hours for​ painting, hours for​ drying, and hours for polishing per​ month, how many of each type of car are​ produced?

Answers

Answer:

The company manufactures 5 delta cars, 8 beta cars and 12 sigma cars.

Step-by-step explanation:

let in the motor company x number of delta cars, y number of beta cars and z number of sigma cars are manufactured.

from the condition given in the question we can write

9x + 13y + 9z = 257 ........ (1)

4x + 6y + 4z = 116 ........... (2) and    

3x + 4y + z = 59 ......... (3)

From equation (2) we get

9x + 13.5y + 9z = 261 ....... (4) {Multiplying with  both sides}

solving equations (1) and (4) we get

0.5y = 4

and ⇒ y = 8.

from equation (2) putting the value of y we get,  

4x + 4z = 116 - 48 = 68

⇒x + z = 17 .....(5)

Now, from equation (3) putting y = 8 we get,  

3x + z = 59 - 32 = 27 ....... (6)  

hence, solving equations (5) and (6) we get, 17 - x = 27 - 3x

⇒ 2x = 10

⇒ x = 5  

So, z = 17 - x = 12

therefore, the company manufactures 5 delta cars, 8 beta cars and 12 sigma cars.

Answers

The correct format of the question is

After an​ accident, police can use the formula [tex]v=2\sqrt{5L }[/tex] to estimate the​ speed, v, in miles per​ hour, that a car was traveling by measuring the length of the skid​ marks, L, in feet. Estimate the speed of a car that left skid marks 118 ft long. If the posted speed limit is 45 ​mi/h, was the car​ speeding? The speed of a car that left skid marks 118 ft long was about nothing ​mi/h.

Answer:

48.6mi/h, Yes the car was speeding.

Step-by-step explanation:

The speed of the car is given by  [tex]v=2\sqrt{5L }[/tex]

Skid length (L) = 118ft

V= [tex]2\sqrt{5*118}[/tex]

  = 2 [tex]\sqrt{590}[/tex]  

  =  2*24.3

V = 48.6mi/h

Since the speed limit is 45mi/h and the velocity of this driver is 48.6mi/h it is clear that was speeding by 3.6mi/h over speed limit.


Line t has an equation of y = -1/2 x + 7. Line u is parallel to line t and passes through
(4, -6). What is the equation of line u?

Answers

Answer:

y = -1/2x - 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Let equation of line u be y = mx + c

since line t and line u are parallel, slope/gradient of both lines are the same (aka m = -1/2)

sub (4, -6):

-6 = -1/2(4) + c

c = -4

therefore, equation of line u is y = -1/2x - 4

Solve the simultaneous equations
x + 6y = 20
x + 3y = 14
x =
Y=

Answers

Answer:

x = 8, y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply the second equation by -2:

x + 6y = 20

-2x - 6y = -28

Add the equations and simplify:

-x = -8

x = 8

Plug x = 8 back into the first equation and solve for y:

8 + 6y = 20

6y = 12

y = 2

Answer:

x=8

Y=2

or

(x,y)=(8,2)

Step-by-step explanation:

x+6y=20

x+3y=14

solve the equation for x

x+6y=20

x=14-3y

substitute the given value of x into the equation

x+6y=20

14-3y+6y=20

14+3y=20

3y=20-14

3y=6

3y/3=6/3

y=2.

substitute the given value of y into the equation

x=14-3y

x=14-3×2

x=14-6

x=8.

the possible solution of the system is the ordered pair (x,y)

(x,y)=(8,2)

or

x=8

Y=2

Proof:

Check if the given ordered pair is the solution of the system of equations

8+6×2=20

8+3×2=14

simply the equalities

20=20

14=14

since all of the equalities are true, the ordered pair is the solution of the system

(x,y)=(8,2)
