Tate purchased a pair of slippers on the internet for a retail price of $16. After 6.5% sales tax, how much were the slippers?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

$15.02

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Total cost= $16

tax= 6.5%

let the actual cost of the slippers be x

6.5/100*x+ x= 16

0.065x+x= 16

1.065x= 16

divide both sides by 1.065

x= 16/1.065

x= 15.02

Hence the actual cost of the slippers is $15.02

Explain how to isolate the variable in this equation -2/5x+7=15

Answers

Answer:

[tex]x = -20[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Use inverse operations and simplification to isolate the variable in the equation.

[tex]-\frac{2}{5}x + 7 = 15\\-7\\\\-\frac{2}{5}x = 8\\[/tex]

Now divide the equation by [tex](-\frac{2}{5})[/tex] remember, dividing a fraction is the same as multiplying by the reciprocal. The reciprocal of a fraction is when one switches the places of the numerator (number on top of a fraction bar), and the denominator (number on the bottom of the fraction bar).

[tex]-\frac{2}{5}x = 8\\[/tex]

÷[tex]-\frac{2}{5}[/tex]

[tex]x = 8 * (-\frac{5}{2})[/tex]

Simplify,

[tex]x = 4 *(- 5)\\\\ x= -20[/tex]



The trip from Manhattan to Montauk Point is 120 miles by train or by car. A train makes the trip in 2 hours, while a car makes the trip in 2.5 hours. How much faster in miles per hour, is the average speed of the train than the average speed of the car?

Answers

Answer:

30mph faster

Step-by-step explanation:

first you must find how fast the train can go in 1 hour

that is 60mph, then multiply 60 and 2.5

60x2.5 = 150mph then,

150 - 120 =30mph

very sorry if this is wrong

The average speed of the train is 1.25 times the average speed of the car.

What is speed?

Speed is defined as the length traveled by a particle or entity in an hour. It is a scale parameter. It is the ratio of length to duration.

We know that the speed formula

Speed = Distance/Time

The excursion from Manhattan to Montauk Point is 120 miles via train or via vehicle. A train makes the outing in 2 hours, while a vehicle makes the excursion in 2.5 hours.

The average speed of the train is given as,

⇒ 120 / 2

⇒ 60 miles per hour

The average speed of the car is given as,

⇒ 120 / 2.5

⇒ 48 miles per hour

The ratio of the average speed of the train to the car will be given as,

⇒ 60/48

⇒ 1.25

The average speed of the train is 1.25 times the average speed of the car.

find the value of x ​

Answers

X =7
Since it is a right angle, it means that it is 90 degrees.
Thus, you can add both angles and make them equal to 90 like so, and solve for x.
5x + 55 = 90
5x = 35
X=7

Answer:

x = 7

Step-by-step explanation:

A right angle is equal to 90 degrees

The sum of the angles, 55 and 5x, should equal 90

55 + 5x = 90

Isolate the variable

Subtract both sides by 55

55 - 55 + 5x = 90 - 55

5x = 35

Divide both sides by 5

5x ÷ 5 = 35 ÷ 5

x = 7

A random sample of adult men was asked if they would return the money if they found a wallet on the street. Of 143 men, 29 said they would. The true proportion of all adult men who would return the money is 18%. Which of the following do you expect would accurately describe the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of men would return money from a found wallet?
Select one or more:
a. The mean of the sampling distribution will be equal to 0.18.
b. The mean of the sampling distribution will be equal to 0.2028.
c. The sampling distribution would be approximately standard normal.
d. The sampling distribution will be skewed right.
e. The sampling distribution will be skewed left.
f. The sampling distribution will be approximately normal.
g. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution will be 0.0336.

Answers

Answer:

b. The mean of the sampling distribution will be equal to 0.2028.

f. The sampling distribution will be approximately normal.

g. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution will be 0.0336.

Step-by-step explanation:

We use the Central Limit Theorem to solve this question.

Central Limit Theorem:

For a proportion p in a sample of size n, the sampling distribution of the sample proportion will be approximately normal with mean [tex]\mu = p[/tex] and standard deviation [tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{p(1-p)}{n}}[/tex].

The sample proportion being approximately normal means that option f. is correct.

Of 143 men, 29 said they would.

This means that [tex]p = \frac{29}{143} = 0.2028[/tex]

This means that option b is correct.

g. The standard deviation of the sampling distribution will be 0.0336.

Lets find the standard deviation.

Sample of 143, so [tex]n = 143[/tex]

[tex]s = \sqrt{\frac{0.2028*0.7972}{143}} = 0.0336[/tex]

So option g. is correct.

The statements that accurately describe the sampling distribution of the sample proportion of men would return money from a found wallet are;

B) The mean of the sampling distribution will be equal to 0.2028.

F) The sampling distribution will be approximately normal.

G) The standard deviation of the sampling distribution will be 0.0336.

Central Limit Theorem.

We are given the true proportion of all adult men who will return the money as; p = 18% = 0.18

Thus, the population mean = 0.18

Now, out of 143 men, 29 said they will return the money. Thus;

Sample mean = Sample proportion = 29/143 =  0.2028

The formula for the sampling standard deviation is;

s = √[p^(1 - p^)/n]

s = √[0.2028(1 - 0.2028)/143]

s = √0.001130574545

s = 0.0336

Looking at the options and comparing to the answers gotten above, only option B, F and G are correct.

John has 6 pairs of pants and 3 shirts. How many possible outfits consisting of one shirt and
one pair of pants can he select?

Answers

Answer:

4*5*7=140 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

First he has to decide on a pair of pants and he has 4 different choices.

For each of those choices he has a choice of 7 different shirts, so that gives him 4 times 7 = 28 different pant/shirt combinations. (I hope none of the pants are striped and none of the shirts have polka-dots).

For each those 28 possibilities, he has 5 different ties he could select, so altogether he has 28 times 5 = 140 different outfits, and some of them may be acceptable to wear in public.

It is simply , 4*5*7=140 ways.

Calculate the time taken for 1 litre of water to flow through the pipe.

volume of water flows through the pipe per second= π r² h = 22/7 × ( 3/4)² × 16
