Give your answer in pounds (£).

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The amount of tax is £178.34, and the full total is £1142.34.

Step-by-step explanation:

Use a calculator to find 18.5 percent of 964, giving us the answer we need. You may add this to the cost before tax to find the exact price after tax.

Answer 2

The amount of tax that is added to the cost of the computer is

£178.34.

What is tax?

A compulsory contribution to state revenue, levied by the government on workers' income and business profits, or added to the cost of some goods, services, and transactions.

Given is that a computer costs £964. A tax of 18.5% is then added to the cost of the computer.

Assume the amount of tax that is added to the cost of the computer is

£{x}. Then, we can write the equation as -

{x} = 18.5% of 964

{x} = (18.5/100) x 964

{x} = 178.34

Therefore, the amount of tax that is added to the cost of the computer is

£178.34.

As the students were approaching the park, they noticed a huge tower that was just
being completed. Lucas and Jacob were part of the group responsible for looking at
advertising. They couldn’t help but to think, one of the main attractions of the park
would be the ride involving this tower. It was a bright, sunny day. As they got off
the bus, they collected the mathematical materials provided by their teacher. These
materials included: pencil, paper, eraser, calculator, measuring tape, a
clinometer (a tool used to measure vertical angles). They walked through the
park until they reached the shadow of the tower. They looked up and couldn’t
believe how high it was

Q: If they are going to advertise, the height of the tower in a brochure that is
being created, they want to be sure of their answer. Describe how they
could use the materials they have and trigonometry to determine the
height of the tower. The explanations should include a detailed diagram,
clear step by step instructions making use of terminology appropriately
and even examples showing the calculations to be used to determine
the height.

Answers

The students could use what they know of triangle rectangles, in the image below you can see the diagram that the students could use to estimate the height of the tower.

First, the students could use the measuring tape to find the distance between the base of the tower and them, this distance is represented with the variable S in the image below.

Now, using the clinometer, they could find the elevation angle between their viewpoint and the tip of the tower. This would be the angle θ in the image (notice that they should do this from the ground).

So at this point, we know one angle and the adjacent cathetus to that angle.

And we want to find the height of the tower, which is the opposite cathetus to the known angle.

Then we can remember the trigonometric relation:

tan(a) = (opposite cathetus)/(adjacent cathetus)

Replacing these by the things we know:

tan(θ) = H/S

tan(θ)*S = H

Then, by measuring θ and S, we can find the height.

The area of the shaded region is 134.1 cm²

What is a segment of a circle?

'A segment of a circle is the region that is bounded by an arc and a chord of the circle.'

According to the given problem,

Area of the circle = πr²

                              = π × 7 × 7 cm²

                              = 153.9 (rounded to the nearest tenth)

Area of the Shaded region,

= [tex]\frac{r^{2} }{2}( \frac{angle in degrees * \pi }{360 - sin(angle in degrees)} )[/tex]

=[tex]\frac{49}{2}(\frac{150\pi }{360 - sin(150)})[/tex]

= 19.8 (rounded to the nearest tenth)

Subtracting them,

= 153.9 - 19.8

= 134.1 cm²

Hence, we can conclude that the area of the shaded region is 134.1cm²

Americans eat 7 billion hot dogs between Memorial Day and Labor Day. If all these hot dogs were laid end to end they
would circle the earth 21.5 times. If the circumference of the Earth is approximately 24,860 miles, and one mile is
5,280 feet, find the length (in inches) of each hot dog. (Round your answer to the nearest tenth)

Answers

Answer:

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of hot dogs eaten = 7 000 000 000

Circumference of the earth = 24 860 miles

21.5 times the circumference of the Earth = 21.5 x 24 860 miles

                                                = 534490 miles

But,

1 mile = 5280 feet

So that,

534490 miles = X

X = 5280 x 534490

   = 287707200 feet

Also,

1 feet = 12 inches

Then,

287707200 feet = Y

Y = 12 x 287707200

   = 3452486400 inches

Thus,

the length of each hot dog = [tex]\frac{3452486400}{7000000000}[/tex]

                     = 0.4932

The length of each hot dog is 0.5000 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1:  Find the standard form of the equation

The equation that was given made no sense so I will recreate the entire equation using the point slope formula.

Use the point slope formula

[tex]y - y_{1} = m(x - x_{1})[/tex]

[tex]y - (-3) = m(x - (-4))[/tex]

[tex]y +3 = m(x + 4)[/tex]

Find the slope

[tex]m = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{1-(-3)}{12-(-4)}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{1+3}{12+4}[/tex]

[tex]m = \frac{4}{16}[/tex]

[tex]m=\frac{1}{4}[/tex]

Combine them together

[tex]y +3 = \frac{1}{4}(x + 4)[/tex]

A lake near the Arctic Circle is covered by a thick sheet of ice during the cold winter months. When spring arrives, the warm air gradually melts the ice, causing its thickness to decrease at a rate of 0.20 meters per week. After 7 weeks, the sheet is only 2.42 meters thick. Let y represent the ice sheet's thickness (in meters) after x weeks.
Complete the equation for the relationship between the thickness and number of weeks.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that the thickness of the lake decreases at a rate of 0.2 meters per week, so we can write:

S(t)=-0.2t+4

we also know that after 7 weeks, the sheet is only 2.42 meters thick, which means we can write:

S(7)=2.42

S(7)=-0.2*7+X

S(7)=-1.4+X

2.42=-1.4+X

X=3.82

So, the function is: S(t)=--0.2*t+3.82

The perimeter of a rectangular plot of land whose length is (2x+5) and width is (x-10) is 80cm. Find the
i)value of x
ii) area
iii)cost of weeding the plot at GHc 0.24 per m²​

Answers

Answer:

P.=2(2x+5)+2(x-10)=80cm

6x-10=80

x=90/6=15cm

Area= L*W= 35*5=175 squared cm= 0.0175 squared m

Cost= 0.24 * 0.0175 = GHc 0.0042

A parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle.  The cost of weeding the rectangular plot is 0.0042 GHc.

What is a rectangle?

That parallelogram in which adjacent sides are perpendicular to each other is called a rectangle. A rectangle is always a parallelogram and a quadrilateral but the reverse statement may or may not be true.

A.) The perimeter of a rectangular plot of land whose length is (2x+5) and width is (x-10) is 80cm. Therefore, we can write,

Perimeter of the rectangel = 2(L+W)

80 = 2[(2x+5)+(x-10)]

80/2 = 2x+5+x-10

40 = 3x -5

40+5 = 3x

x = 15

Hence, the value of x is 15.

B.) The length of the rectangle = (2x+5) = 2(15)+5 = 35 cm = 0.35 m

The width of the rectangle = (x-10) = 15-10 = 5 cm = 0.05 m

Now, the area of the rectangle = L×B = 0.35m × 0.05m  = 0.0175m²

C.) Given the cost of weeding 1m² is 0.24, therefore, the cost of weeding the rectangular plot is

Cost = 0.0175 × 0.24 = 0.0042 GHc

Hence, the cost of weeding the rectangular plot is 0.0042 GHc.

Melissa will rent a car for the weekend. She can choose one of two plans. The first plan has an initial fee of 59 and costs an additional 0.15 per mile driven. The second plan has an initial fee of 50 and costs an additional 0.20 per mile driven. For what amount of driving do the two plans cost the same? What is the cost when the two plans cost the same?

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x = cost per mile

y = Total cost

Plan 1:

y = 59 + 0.15x

Plan 2:

y = 50 + 0.20x

Equate the total cost of the two plans

59 + 0.15x = 50 + 0.20x

59 - 50 = 0.20x - 0.15x

9 = 0.05x

x = 9/0.05

= 180

x = 180 miles

y = 50 + 0.20x

= 50 + 0.20(180)

= 50 + 36

= 86

y = 86

Determinar la altura de una antena que, A cierta hora del día,Arroja una sombra de 2.85 m, En ese preciso momento Marta que Mide 1.65 m Proyecta una sombra de 1.16 m

Answers

Answer:

La altura de la antena es 4.054 metros.

Step-by-step explanation:

La altura del objeto es perpendicular a la longitud de la sombra, tanto el triángulo rectángulo de la antena como el triángulo rectángulo de Marta son semejantes. La altura de la antena se determina mediante la siguiente relación:

[tex]\frac{h}{l} = \frac{H}{L}[/tex] (1)

Where:

[tex]h[/tex] - Altura de Marta, en metros.

[tex]l[/tex] - Longitud de la sombra de Marta, en metros.

[tex]L[/tex] - Longitud de la sombra de la antena, en metros.

[tex]H[/tex] - Altura de la antena, en metros.

Si sabemos que [tex]h = 1.65\,m[/tex], [tex]l = 1.16\,m[/tex] y [tex]L = 2.85\,m[/tex], entonces la altura de la antena es:

[tex]H = h\cdot \left(\frac{L}{l} \right)[/tex]

[tex]H = 1.65\,m \times \left(\frac{2.85\,m}{1.16\,m} \right)[/tex]

[tex]H = 4.054\,m[/tex]

La altura de la antena es 4.054 metros.

[tex]\displaystyle \left(\alpha+1\right)\left(\beta + 1\right) = \frac{a+c-b}{a}\:\: \left(\text{ or } 1+\frac{c-b}{a}\right)[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the equation:

[tex]ax^2+bx+c=0[/tex]

Which has roots α and β.

And we want to express (α + 1)(β + 1) in terms of a, b, and c.

From the quadratic formula, we know that the two solutions to our equation are:

[tex]\displaystyle x_1 = \frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\text{ and } x_2=\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}[/tex]

Let x₁ = α and x₂ = β. Substitute:

[tex]\displaystyle \left(\frac{-b+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} + 1\right) \left(\frac{-b-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}+1\right)[/tex]

Combine fractions:

[tex]\displaystyle =\left(\frac{-b+2a+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a} \right) \left(\frac{-b+2a-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\right)[/tex]

Rewrite:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{\left(-b+2a+\sqrt{b^2-4ac}\right)\left(-b+2a-\sqrt{b^2-4ac}\right)}{(2a)(2a)}[/tex]

Multiply and group:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{((-b+2a)+\sqrt{b^2-4ac})((-b+2a)-\sqrt{b^2-4ac})}{4a^2}[/tex]

Difference of two squares:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{\overbrace{(-b+2a)^2 - (\sqrt{b^2-4ac})^2}^{(x+y)(x-y)=x^2-y^2}}{4a^2}[/tex]

Expand and simplify:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{(b^2-4ab+4a^2)-(b^2-4ac)}{4a^2}[/tex]

Distribute:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{(b^2-4ab+4a^2)+(-b^2+4ac)}{4a^2}[/tex]

Cancel like terms:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{4a^2+4ac-4ab}{4a^2}[/tex]

Factor:

[tex]\displaystyle =\frac{4a(a+c-b)}{4a(a)}[/tex]

Cancel. Hence:

[tex]\displaystyle = \frac{a+c-b}{a}\:\: \left(\text{ or } 1+\frac{c-b}{a}\right)[/tex]

Therefore:
