Answer:

Answer:

The total is: $ 1345.5

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that:

I would like to purchase 20 products at a cost 65.00 per product.

This means that the cost of 20 products will be:

Also, there is a sales tax of 3.5%

This means that a person has to pay a extra 3.5% on the total cost of the items he purchased.

i.e. he need to pay 3/5% on $ 1300

This means that the amount of tax he need to pay is: 3.5% of 1300

= 3.5%×1300

= 0.035×1300

= $ 45.5.

Hence, the total cost is: $ 1300+$ 45.5

This means that the total cost is: $ 134.5

5. When looking at a map, a student realizes that Birmingham is nearly due west of Atlanta, and Nashville is nearly due north of

leonid [27]

Answer: 250 mi

Step-by-step explanation:

Here we can think in a triangle rectangle:

The distance from Birmingham to Atlanta is roughly 150 mi, and this is one of the cathetus.

And the distance from Birmingham to Nashville is roughly 200 mi, this is the other cathetus of the triangle.

Now, the distance from Atlanta to Nashville will be the hypotenuse of this triangle rectangle.

Now we can apply the Pythagorean's theorem:

A^2 + B^2 = H^2

Where A and B are the cathetus, and H is the hypotenuse:

Then:

H = √(A^2 + B^2)

H = √(150^2 + 200^2) mi = √(62,500) mi = 250 mi

Then the estimated distance from Atlanta to Nashville is 250 mi

To make a profit, a clothing store sells jeans at 115% the amount they paid for them. How much did the store pay for the jeans s

Svetllana [295]

Answer:

The store paid 6.67 times the profit made on the jeans

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the amount the clothing store pay for Jean be X

Let the amount the clothing store sells Jean be Y = X ×1.15

The profit (P) made is the difference between amount the clothing store sells Jean and the amount paid for Jean = Y - X = 1.15X - X

Profit (P) = 0.15X

X = P/0.15 = 6.67P

Therefore, the store paid 6.67 times the profit made on the jeans

You deposit $300 in a savings account that pays 6% interest compounded semiannually. How much will you have at the middle of the

Makovka662 [10]

Answer:

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year compounded 2 times per year over 0.5 years is $ 309.00.

The total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year compounded 2 times per year over 1 year is $ 318.27.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) How much will you have at the middle of the first year?

Using the formula

$A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

where

Principle = P

Annual rate = r

Compound = n

Time = (t in years)

A = Total amount

Given:

Principle P = $300

Annual rate r = 6% = 0.06 per year

Compound n = Semi-Annually = 2

Time (t in years) = 0.5 years

To determine:

Total amount = A = ?

Using the formula

$A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

substituting the values

$A=300\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{\left(2\right)\left(0.5\right)}$

$A=300\cdot \frac{2.06}{2}$

$A=\frac{618}{2}$

$A=309$ $

Therefore, the total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year compounded 2 times per year over 0.5 years is $ 309.00.

Part b) How much at the end of one year?

Using the formula

$A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

where

Principle = P

Annual rate = r

Compound = n

Time = (t in years)

A = Total amount

Given:

Principle P = $300

Annual rate r = 6% = 0.06 per year

Compound n = Semi-Annually = 2

Time (t in years) = 1 years

To determine:

Total amount = A = ?

so using the formula

$A\:=\:P\left(1+\frac{r}{n}\right)^{nt}$

so substituting the values

$A\:=\:300\left(1+\frac{0.06}{2}\right)^{\left(2\right)\left(1\right)}$

$A=300\cdot \frac{2.06^2}{2^2}$

$A=318.27$ $

Therefore, the total amount accrued, principal plus interest, from compound interest on an original principal of $ 300.00 at a rate of 6% per year compounded 2 times per year over 1 year is $ 318.27.
