The tax rate as a percent, r, charged on an item can be determined using the formula StartFraction c Over p EndFraction minus 1

equals r. – 1 = r, where c is the final cost of the item and p is the price of the item before tax. Louise rewrites the equation to solve for the final cost of the item: c = p(1 + ). What is the final cost of a $40 item after an 8% tax is applied? $

At most, Alana can spend $40 on carnival tickets. Ride tickets cost $4 each, and food tickets cost $2 each. Alana buys at least
evablogger [386]
We can let r be the number of food tickets and f be the number of food tickets. Since Alana can spend at most $40, that means the total of price bought for r and f must be less than or equal to $40. In addition, since Alana buys at least 16 tickets, this also means that the total of r and f is 16. Mathematically, we have these inequalities: (1) 4r + 2f ≤ 40 and (2) r + f ≥ 16 Multiplying -2 in (2), we have 4r + 2f ≤ 40 -2r - 2f ≤ 32 Adding both inequalities, 2r ≤ 8 r ≤ 4 Since r must be less than or equal to 4.Thus the answer is <span>A.</span>

A sculpture of a clothespin is 20 feet high. A normal clothespin of this shape is five inches high. Using this scale, how many f
kodGreya [7K]
This is the concept of scale factor. The linear scale factor is given by:
(height of sculpture)/(height of clothespin)
=20/(5/12)
=48
Given that a woman is 5ft 7 in, the sculpture of this woman would be:
height of sculpture=(scale factor)*(height of the woman)
height of the woman=5 ft 7 inches=5 7/12 ft=67/12 ft
hence the height of the sculpture will be:
67/12×48
=268 ft

Answer: 268 ft

Sociologists want to test whether the number of homeless people in a particular urban area is increasing. In 2010, the average n
Kobotan [32]

Answer:

The test statistic value is 15.3.

Step-by-step explanation:

The hypothesis for this test is:

<em>H</em>₀: The average number of homeless people is not increasing, i.e. <em>μ</em> = 42.3.

<em>H</em>ₐ: The average number of homeless people is increasing, i.e. <em>μ</em> > 42.3.

Given:

\bar x=45.3\\\sigma=6.2\\n=1000

As the population standard deviation is provided use a single mean <em>z</em>-test for the hypothesis testing.

The test statistic is:

z=\frac{\bar x-\mu}{\sigma/\sqrt{n}}=\frac{45.3-42.3}{6.2/\sqrt{1000}}=15.3

Thus, the test statistic value is 15.3.
