Answer:

The total repair cost for each store is the cost of repairs added to the sales tax. The amount of money saved will be the difference between the two total costs.

Answer:

Gratuity of $180 I would multiply the actual repair cost without including tax to determine the gratuity. So just multiply $1200 by 0.15 getting $180. As an suggestion, calculating 15% in your head is actually quite simple. What you do is calculate 10%, divide that in half, then add together. So for the $1200 example, you have 1200/10 = 120 half of 120 is 60 120 + 60 = 180 So you have a top of $180.

A high-altitude spherical weather balloon expands as it rises, due to the drop in atmospheric pressure. Suppose that the radius

lord [1]

The increase of the radius is a linear increase since we have the constant rate of 0.07 inches per second

The equation for a linear growth/decay is given by the form $y=mx+c$ where $m$ is the rate of increase and $c$ is the value of $y$ when $x=0$

We have
$m = 0.07$
$c=36$ when $t=0$

So the equation is $r=0.07t+36$

The length of the radius when $t=400$ seconds is
$r=0.07(400)+36$
$r=64$ inches

Eudora ran from her home to her secret laboratory at an average speed of 12\text{ km/h}12 km/h12, start text, space, k, m, slash

OleMash [197]

Answer:

Eudora spent 0.5 hours from home to library and 1.5 hours from library to school

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Home to Library:

$S_1 = 12km/h$ -- Average Speed

Library to School

$S_2 = 76km/h$ -- Average Speed

Total

$Distance = 120km$

$Time = 2\ hr$

Required

Determine the time taken from home to library and from library to school

Let the time spent from home to library be x. So, from library to school will be: 2 - x

So, we have:

Home to Library:

$S_1 = 12km/h$ -- Average Speed

$T_1 =x$ -- Time

Library to School

$S_2 = 76km/h$ -- Average Speed

$T_2 =2 - x$ -- Time

Distance is calculated as:

$Distance = Speed * Time$

Home to Library:

$D_1 = S_1 * T_1$

$D_1 = 12 * x$

$D_1 = 12x$

Library to School:

$D_2 = S_2 * T_2$

$D_2 = 76 * (2- x)$

$D_2 = 152- 76x$

The total distance is 120km. So, we have:

$120km = D_1 + D_2$

$120 = 12x + 152 - 76x$

Collect Like Terms

$120 - 152 = 12x - 76x$

$-32 = -64x$

$-64x=-32$

Solve for x

$x = \frac{-32}{-64}$

$x = 0.5$

Recall that:

$T_1 =x$

$T_2 = 2 - x$

So, we have:

$T_1 = 0.5$

$T_2 = 2 -0.5 = 1.5$
