Answer:

The amount to be pay for coat is $128.70.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The sales tax rate is 7.25% in California.

The cost for a coat in Los angeles is $120.00.

Now, to find amount to be paid.

Sales tax = 7.25%.

Cost = $120.00.

So, amount to be paid = $120 + 7.25% of $120.00.

$=120+\frac{7.25}{100} \times 120.$

$=120+\frac{870}{100}.$

$=120+8.70$

$=\$128.70$

Therefore, the amount to be pay for coat is $128.70.

On a recent road trip, Mr. Yost drove 210 miles in 3 1/2 hours. Find both the miles driven per hour and the hours driven per mil

amid [387]

Miles driven per hour is 60 miles per hour

Hours driven per mile is 0.01667 hours per mile

Solution:

Given that,

On a recent road trip, Mr. Yost drove 210 miles in 3 1/2 hours

Therefore,

Miles driven = 210 miles

$Time\ taken = 3\frac{1}{2}\ hour = \frac{7}{2} = 3.5\ hour$

To find: miles driven per hour and the hours driven per mile

<h3>Miles driven per hour</h3>

$\frac{miles}{hour} = \frac{210}{3.5}\\\\\frac{miles}{hour} = 60\ miles\ per\ hour$

<h3>Hours driven per mile</h3>

$\frac{hours}{miles} = \frac{3.5}{210}\\\\\frac{hours}{miles} = 0.01667\ hours\ per\ miles$

Thus both the miles driven per hour and the hours driven per mile are found

Keenan currently does a total of 888 pushups each day. He plans to increase the number of pushups he does each day by 222 pushup

marishachu [46]

Answer:

8 + 2x = 30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The initial number of push-ups he does in each day = 8,

And, the number of push-ups, he increases per day = 2,

Let x be the number of days after he will reach his target of 30 push-ups,

Since, the number of push-ups she will increase in x days = 2x,

Thus, the number of push-ups she will do after x days = 8 + 2x,

⇒ 8 + 2x = 30, which is the required equation.

Susan, a recent college graduate, makes a base salary of $70,000 per year. Susan has federal income tax withholding of $12,000,

Damm [24]

Answer:

Susan's take-home pay $48,645.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Susan, a recent college graduate, makes a base salary of $70,000 per year. Susan has federal income tax withholding of $12,000, and state tax withholding of $4,000. Employers are required to withhold a 6.2% Social Security tax and a 1.45% Medicare tax.

Now, to find Susan's take-home pay.

Basic salary = $70,000.

Now, her tax withholdings:

Federal income tax = $12,000.

State tax = $4,000.

Social security tax = 6.2% of $70,000.

$=\frac{6.2}{100} \times 70,000\\\\=0.062\times 70,000\\\\=\$4340.$

Medicare tax = 1.45% of $70,000.

$=\frac{1.45}{100} \times 70000\\\\=0.0145\times 70000\\\\=\$1015.$

Now, to get the take-home pay of Susan's we subtract all the tax holdings of federal, state, social and medicare from the basic salary:

$70,000-(12,000+4,000+4340+1015)$

$=70,000-(21,355)$

$=70,000-21,355$

$=\$48,645.$

Therefore, Susan's take-home pay $48,645.

Danny Henry made a waffle on his six-inch-diameter circular griddle using batter containing a half a cup of flour. Using the sam

Mekhanik [1.2K]

Answer:

He'll need 288 cups to make a waffle on his 24 foot diameter circular griddle.

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find out how much batter Danny needs we first need to compute the area of the first pans, since it is a circular pan their area is given by A = 2*pi*r. So we have:

Area of the first pan = 2*pi*(6/2) = 18.84 square inches

Area of the second pan = 2*pi*(24/2) = 75.36 square foots

We now need to convert these values to be in the same unit, we'll convert from square foots to square inches:

Area of the second pan = 75.36 * (12)^2 = 10851.84 square inches

We can now use a proportion knowing that the batter and the thickness of the waffles are the same. If 0.5 cup of flour can make a waffle on 18.84 square inches then x cup of flour can make a waffle on 10851.85 square inches. Writing this in a mathematical form, we have:

0.5/x = 18.84/10851.84

18.84x = 0.5*10851.85

x = 10851.85*0.5/18.84 =288 cups
