Price plus tax = Total amount - Shipping charge

Price plus tax = $95.68 - $5.25

Price plus tax = $90.43

Let, x is the price excluding tax :

x+\dfrac{5x}{100}=90.43\\\\105x=9043\\\\x=\$86.12

Also, she used $5 off promo code.

So, Original price = $86.12 + $5

Original price = $91.12 .

Hence, this is the required solution.

The equation y = 14x represents the number of pages Printer A can print over time, where y is the number of pages and x is time
Crank
Printer A
y = 14x

Printer B
Time(min)       |  3  |  5  |  8  |  12  |
Pages printed | 48 | 80 | 128 | 192 |

Printer A prints 14(1) = 14 pages per minute.
Printer B prints 48/3 = 16 pages per minute.

The printer that prints at a faster rate is printer B.

Jeanine’s swimming pool has a diameter of 27 feet. Surrounding the pool is a
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Answer:

It will cost $427.04 to paint deck and it will cost 958.485 to add fencing around deck

Step-by-step explanation:

Diameter of swimming pool = 27 feet

Radius of pool r=\frac{27}{2}=13.5 feet

Surrounding the pool is a  deck that extends 5 feet from the edges of the pool

Outer radius R = 13.5+5=18.5

Area of deck = Outer area - Inner area

Area of deck =\pi R^2 -\pi r^2

Area of deck = 3.14(18.5^2-13.5^2)

Area of deck = 502.4 ft^2

Cost of painting 1 sq.feet = $0.85

Cost of painting 502.4 sq.feet = 502.4 \times 0.85=427.04

Perimeter of deck = 2 \pi R = 2 \times 3.14 \times 18.5 =116.18 feet

Cost of fencing 1 foot = $8.25

Cost of fencing 116.18 foot = 116.18 \times 8.25=958.485

Hence it will cost $427.04 to paint deck and it will cost 958.485 to add fencing around deck

What is the equation of the translated function, g(x), if f(x) = x2?
Eddi Din [679]

All of these would be translated versions of f(x).


A translated version is simply one in which the base equation is used and then moved. Each of these equations are quadratics with a starting term of x^2. All of them move up and down or side to side in some way and direction, but all of them would be translated versions of that graph.

Jay King, owner of a local Bed and Bath Store knows that his customers will only pay at most, $299 for a blow up bed. Assuming J
Roman55 [17]
If you would like to know the price Jay can pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed, you can calculate this using the following steps:

100% + 40% = 140%

140% of x is $299
140% * x = 299
140/100 * x = 299      /*100/140
x = 299 * 100 / 140
x = $213.6

40% of $213.6 = 40% * 213.6 = 40/100 * 213.6 = 85.44
$213.6 + $85.44 = $299

The correct result would be $213.6.
