Answer:   $9.81

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Tiffany buys a basket of watermelons on sale for $9.

I.e. Cost of a basket of watermelons = $9

Sales tax = 9% = 0.09  [ we divide percentage by 100 to convert it into decimal]

Now , the Total price Tiffany paid = (Cost of a basket of watermelons ) + (Sales tax) x (Cost of a basket of watermelons )

= $9 + (0.09) ($9)

=$9 (1+0.09)

=$9 (1.09)

= $9.81

Hence, the total price Tiffany pays for the basket of watermelons is $9.81.

I know you got this from Khan Academy, and so the answer is $9.81. You probably don't care about how it is done, and you probably just want to put the answer and be done, but I will show you. You have to take the original price of $9 and multiply it with 9%, or 0.09, to get the amount of your tip. add the 9%, or $81. You can also just do 9*109%, or 9*1.09, to put these two steps together and add the original price and the tip.

Suppose the equation for line A is given by 12x=9y+27. If line A and B are perpendicular and the point (16,-12) lies on line B,
s2008m [1.1K]

Answer:

y=-\frac{3}{4} x-8

Step-by-step explanation:

he equation for line A is given by 12x=9y+27

Equation of line is y=mx+b where m is the slope

12x=9y+27

Subtract 27 on both sides

12x-27=9y

Divide both sides by 9

y=\frac{4}{3} x-3

Slope of the given line is 4/3

Slope of perpendicular lines are negative reciprocal of one another

slope of perpendicular line is -3/4

m=-3/4, (16,-12)

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y+12=\frac{-3}{4}(x-16)

Multiply fraction inside the parenthesis

y+12=-\frac{3}{4} x+4

Now subtract 12 from both sides

y=-\frac{3}{4} x-8

nordsb [41]

The question is really quite easy. You just have to find the distance between the sea level and the point down the water. Make an illustration about the problem to visualize it better. The picture is shown in the attached picture. The distance we want to get is denoted as x. The solution is as follows:

x = 4.7 - 0.5 = 4.2 m

Hope this helps!

Paul owns a gym and needs to replace the carpeting on the floor. The gym's floor plan is shown.
zubka84 [21]

Answer:

<em>24 square yards</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the diagram attached.

The area of the diagram = Area of rectangle + Area of triangle

Area of rectangle = 3 * 4

Area of rectangle = 12 square yards

Area of triangle = 1/2 * base * height

Area of triangle = 1/2 * 6 * 4

Area of triangle = 12 square yards

Area of the diagram = 12 + 12

Area of diagram =  24 square yards

<em>Hence 24 square yards of carpeting is needed</em>

2. Tennis rackets can be packaged in cartons holding 2 rackets cach or in
Liula [17]

Answer:

There were 14 cartons of size 2 rackets and 24 cartons of size 3 rackets

Step-by-step explanation:

Assume that the number of cartons holding 2 rackets is x and the number of cartons holding 3 rackets is y

∵ There are x cartons of 2 rackets

∵ There are y cartons of 3 rackets

∵ They used 38 cartons

∴ x + y = 38 ⇒ (1)

∵ They packed a total of 100 rackets

∴ 2x + 3y = 100 ⇒ (2)

Let us solve the system of equations

→ Multiply equation (1) by -2 to make the coefficients of x in

   the equations equal in values and different is signs

∵ -2(x) + -2(y) = -2(38)

∴ -2x - 2y = -76 ⇒ (3)

→ Add equations (2) and (3)

∴ y = 24

→ Substitute the value of y in equation (1) or (2) to find x

∵ x + 24 = 38

→ Subtract 24 from both sides

∴ x + 24 - 24 = 38 - 24

∴ x = 14

There were 14 cartons of size 2 rackets and 24 cartons of size 3 rackets
