Answer:

a) 37 + 42 =79

=7/100 x 79

=553/100

=5.53

Isaac's total bill = 79 + 5.53 = $84.53

b) 25/100 x 79

= 19.75

= 79 - 19.75

= $59.25 (before tax)

7/100 x 59.25

= 414.75/100

= 4.15

= 59.25 + 4.15

= $63.4 (after adding tax)

First we have to take out the percentage of discount and minus it from the total cost . To find the discounted price with tax, we have to take out the percentage of the tax from the discounted amount and add it to the discounted amount to get the total cost.

Amanda is placing an order for running shoes and leather boots for her footwear boutique. She needs a total of 48 pairs of shoes
Basile [38]

Constraint 1:

Let the total number of running shoes be = R

Let the total number of leather boots be = L

As the given number of total shoes are 48,

The equations becomes,

R + L = 48............(1)

Constraint 2:

As running shoes are twice the leather boots, equation becomes,

R = 2L..............(2)

Putting the value of R from equation(2) in equation (1)

2L+ L=48

3L=48

L=16

Now putting the value of L in equation(2)

R= 2L

R = 2*16

R=32

Hence, Amanda needs 16 pairs of leather boots and 32 pairs of running shoes.

The first task of the Segment Two Honors Project is to select the Power Pill study participants’ groups and research board offic
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Part 1: There are 4.7*10^21 ways to select 40 volunteers in subgroups of 10

Part 2: The research board can be chosen in 32760 ways

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1:

The number of ways in which we can organized n elements into k groups with size n1, n2,...nk is calculate as:

\frac{ n!}{ n1!*n2!*...*nk! }

So, in this case we can form 4 subgroups with 10 participants each one, replacing the values of:

  • n by 40 participants
  • k by 4 groups
  • n1, n2, n3 and n4 by 10 participants of every subgroups

We get:

\frac{ 40!}{10!*10!*10!*10!} = 4.7*10^{21}

Part 2:

The number of ways in which we can choose k element for a group of n elements and the order in which they are chose matters is calculate with permutation as:

nPk = \frac{ n!}{(n-k)!}

So in this case there are 4 offices in the research board, those are director,  assistant director, quality control analyst and correspondent. Additionally this 4 offices are going to choose from a group of 5 doctors.

Therefore, replacing values of:

  • n by 15 doctors
  • k by 4 offices

We get:

\frac{ 15!}{ (15-4)! } = 32760

Factorise 15x+25<br><br>thank you for any help​
scoray [572]

Answer: 5(3x+5)

Step-by-step explanation:

To factor this expression we need to pull out the greatest common factor of the 2 numbers, 15 and 25. This factor is 5.

Now divide both numbers by 5 and put a 5 on the outside of the new expression to look like: 5(3x+5) and this is as far as it can be factored.

An artist cuts 4 squares with sides of length x ft from the corners of a 12 ft-by-18 ft rectangular piece of sheet metal. She be
ehidna [41]

Answer:

V = 216x - 60x^2 + 4x^3

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume V of the fountain is equal to:

V = L*W*h

Where L is the lenght of the fountain, W is the width of the fountain and h is the high of the fountain

We already know that h is equal to x. On the other hand, if we cut a square with side of length x, L and W are calculated as:

L = 18 - 2x

W = 12 - 2x

So, replacing L, W and h on the equation of the volume, we get:

V = (18-2x)*(12-2x)*x

Finally, simplifying the function we get:

V = ((18*12)+(18*(-2x))+(-2x*12)+((-2x)*(-2x)))*x

V = (216-36x-24x+4x^2)*x\\V = (216-60x+4x^2)*x\\V = 216x - 60x^2 + 4x^3
