the final price of the wind chime is $29.925 .
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Here we have , A home improvement store sold wind chimes for $30 each. A customer signed up for a free membership card and received a 5% discount off the price. Sales tax of 5% was applied after the discount. We need to find What was the final price of the wind chime . Let's find out:
Initially we have , 5% discount in $30 i.e.
⇒ (30(5))/100
⇒ (150)/100
⇒ $1.5 , So now price becomes $30 - $1.5 = $28.5 . At this amount there's 5% tax i.e.
⇒ (28.5(5))/100
⇒ (142.5)/100
⇒ $1.425
So now price becomes $28.5 + $1.425 = $29.925 . Therefore , the final price of the wind chime is $29.925 .
Answer:
The heights are the same after 4 hours.
Step-by-step explanation:
The red candle burns at a rate of 7/10 inches per hour. In t hours, (7/10)t inches have burned. The height of the candle after t hours is 8 - (7/10)t.
The blue candle burns at a rate of 1/5 inch per hour. In t hours, (1/5)t inches have burned. The height of the candle after t hours is 6 - (1/5)t.
You need to find the time, t, when their heights are equal.
8 - (7/10)t = 6 - (1/5)t
Multiply both sides by 10 (the LCD).
80 - 7t = 60 - 2t
-5t = -20
t = 4
The heights are the same after 4 hours.
Vineet can conclude that:
B ) the system of equations does not have a solution.
