Given:
price = 1,250
sales discount = 15%
sales tax = 6.5%
The problem is unclear whether the price is the original price or the discounted price. I am assuming that the price is the original price.
Original price times sales discount rate is the value of sales discount
1,250 x 15% = 187.50
Original price less the value of sales discount is the discounted price.
1,250 - 187.50 = 1,062.50
Discounted price times sales tax rate is the value of the sales tax
1,062.50 x 6.5% = 69.06
Discounted price plus sales tax is the total cost of the purchase
1,062.50 + 69.06 = 1,131.56
There were 340,000 cattle placed on feed
How many of the 340,000 cattle placed on feed were between 700 and 799 pounds?
Given the fraction of total cattle for 700 - 799 pounds is 2/5
Let x be the number of cattle between 700 - 799 pounds
We make a proportion using the fraction
Cross multiply it and solve for x
340000* 2 = 5x
680000 = 5x
Divide by 5 on both sides
So x= 136,000
There were 136,000 cattle between 700 and 799 pounds
Depending on what calculator you have, this should be pretty simple, divide the World lottery by her annual salary to determine how many times as large it is.
The answer is approximately 209,742.53 times as large.
Consider triangle XYZ with vertices at points X(1,-3), Y(3,0) and Z(-1,-1). If triangle XYZ is reflected across the line y = 1, then the rule of reflection is
(x,y)→(x,-y+2).
The image X' of point X will have coordinates according to the given rule:
X(1,-3)→X'(1, -(-3)+2)=X'(1,5).
Answer: correct choice is D.
Approximately 70% of the visitors to the theme park are older than about 12.3.
A z-score of about -0.53 is position on the normal distribution for finding the amount above 30% (70%).
Therefore, we can write and solve the following equation:
(x - 15) / 5.2 = -0.53
x - 15 = -2.756
x = 12.244
The closest amount is 12.3.
