Answer:

1.07p

Step-by-step explanation:

The tax  equals the price times the tax rate

We know the price p and the tax rate 7%

tax = p*7%

Changing this to decimal form

tax = .07p

The  final price of the item is the sales tax plus the price

final price = tax + price

                   .07p +p

                  1.07p

If you have an item that costs 10 dollars and a sales tax of 7% you could do it this way


10 * 7/100 = 0.70 dollars.


The total cost is 10.70 dollars. or 10 dollars and 70 cents.

The best way to do the total however is to multiply the cost by 1.07. You will get the number the customer has to pay.

10 * 1.07 = 10.70

So for any price (p) it would be 1.07*p

Ribbon is only sold by the spool. A spool contains 25 yards of ribbon. Shannon needs 58 yards of ribbon to wrap all the presents
ella [17]

Answer:

\boxed{\text{3 spools}}

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{1 spool =25 yd}\\\text{Spools needed } = \text{58 yd} \times \dfrac{\text{1 spool}}{\text{25 yd}} = \text{2.32 spools}\\\\\text{However, Shannon can't buy part of a spool. She must $\textbf{round up}$ to the next integer.}\\\text{Shannon must buy $\boxed{\textbf{3 spools}}$ of ribbon}

An attempt to establish a video call via some social media app may fail with probability 0.1. If connection is established and i
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

(1). y = x ~ Exp (1/3).

(2). Check attachment.

(3). EY = 3(1 - e^-2).

(4). Var[y] = 3(1 - e^-2) (1 -3 (1 - e^-2)) - 36e^-2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Kindly check the attachment to aid in understanding the solution to the question.

So, from the question, we given the following parameters or information or data;

(A). The probability in which attempt to establish a video call via some social media app may fail with = 0.1.

(B). " If connection is established and if no connection failure occurs thereafter, then the duration of a typical video call in minutes is an exponential random variable X with E[X] = 3. "

(C). "due to an unfortunate bug in the app all calls are disconnected after 6 minutes. Let random variable Y denote the overall call duration (i.e., Y = 0 in case of failure to connect, Y = 6 when a call gets disconnected due to the bug, and Y = X otherwise.)."

(1). Hence, for FY(y) = y = x ~ Exp (1/3) for the condition that zero is equal to y = x < 6.

(2). Check attachment.

(3). EY = 3(1 - e^-2).

(4). Var[y] = 3(1 - e^-2) (1 -3 (1 - e^-2)) - 36e^-2.

The condition to follow in order to solve this question is that y = 0 if x ≤ 0, y = x if 0 ≤ x ≤ 6 and y = 6 if x ≥ 6.

For making a scatter plot of the data set, which would be the best scale and interval for the axis that represents the amount of
Serga [27]

I'd say the answer to the first question is D) 0 to 4 with intervals of 0.2.

Because, you can't just have 1 to 4, as some of the numbers are less than 1.  Of course you can't have 2 to 5 either. And intervals of 2 would be too messy.

For the second question:

I believe the answer is A. Because it's obvious that there IS one outlier, and it looks like there are two clusters.

So, the answers are: A) and D).

Cheese sticks that were previously priced at "10 for $1" are now "2 for $1". Find each percent change.
AysviL [449]

Answer:

The percent decrease in the number of cheese sticks you can buy for $1 is 80%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Cheese sticks that were previously priced at "10 for $1" are now "2 for $1".

To find : The percent decrease in the number of cheese sticks you can buy for $1 ?

Solution :

The formula used to find percent decrease is given by,

\%\text{ change}=\frac{\text{Amount of change}}{\text{Original amount }}\times 100

The price change from 10 to 2,

\%\text{ change}=\frac{10-2}{10}\times 100

\%\text{ change}=\frac{8}{10}\times 100

\%\text{ change}=80\%

The percent decrease in the number of cheese sticks you can buy for $1 is 80%.
