Answer:

The cost of shipping and handling is $23.45 .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

Business services ordered a chair that cost $220.59.

if the California sales tax rate is 7.9%

7.9% is written in the decimal form

= \frac{7.9}{100}

= 0.079

Thus

Sales tax price = 0.079 × Cost of the chair

                         = 0.079 × $220.59

                         = $ 17.43 (Approx)

Thus

Cost of the  ordered chair with sales tax price = Cost of the chair + Sales tax price .

                                                                            = $ 220.59 + $17.43

                                                                            = $ 238.02

As given

Upon arrival they received an invoice for $261.47.

Thus

Cost of  shipping and handling = Cost mentioned in invoice - Cost of the  ordered chair with sales tax price.

Put all the values in the above

Cost of  shipping and handling = $261.47 - $238.02

                                                   = $ 23.45

Therefore the cost of shipping and handling is $23.45 .

Answer:

Cost of shipping and handling = $23.453

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Price of Chair=$220.59

Tax=7.9%

Invoice Price=$261.47

In order to find the cost of shipping and handling, we have to subtract the cost of chair and the tax from the invoice price of chair.

To find the tax,

Tax amount=220.59*0.079

=$17.42661

Now,

Cost of shipping and handling=$261.47-$220.59-$17.42661

=$23.453 ..

In parallelogram WXYZ, WY = 12 in., XZ = 16 in., WX = 10 in., and XY = 9 in. What is the length of line segment MX? 6 in. 7 in.
nataly862011 [7]

Answer:

Using the charasteristics of a parallelogram, the length of line segment MX is 8 in (Third option).

Step-by-step explanation:

In parallelogram WXYZ:

WY=12 in., this is a diagonal in the parallelogram

XZ=16 in., this is the other diagonal in the parallelogram

WX=10 in., this is one of the sides of the parallelogram

XY=9 in., this is the other side of the parallelogram

MX=? this segment is between the vertex X and the point of intersection of the diagonals

In a parallelogram the diagonals intersect (point M) dividing them in equal parts each other, then:

MX=MZ=XZ/2

MX=MZ=(16 in.)/2

MX=MZ=8 in.

Lola needs to sign 96 invitations. Using a stopwatch that measures time to tenths of a second, it takes Lola 5.3 seconds to sign
ikadub [295]

Answer:

508.8 seconds

Step-by-step explanation:

The most accurate determination mathematically is to assume that Lola will maintain an average of 5.3 seconds per signature as she signs all 96 invitations.

Therefore, multiply the time it takes her to sign each invitation (5.3 seconds) by the total number of invitations there are (96 invitations) to get the projected total amount of time that it will take Lola to sign all 96 invitations:96\cdot 5.3=\boxed{508.8\text{ seconds}}

In two or more complete sentences, describe the transformation(s) that take place on the parent function, f(x) = log(x), to achi
lubasha [3.4K]

Answer:

Shift 2 unit left

Flip the graph about y-axis

Stretch horizontally by factor 2

Shift vertically up by 2 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Parent function: f(x)=\log x

Transformation function: f(x)=\log(-2x-4)+2

Take -2 common from transform function f(x)

f(x)=\log[-2(x+2)]+2

Now we see the step-by-step translation

f(x)=\log x

Shift 2 unit left ( x → x+2 )

f(x)=\log(x+2)

Flip the graph about y-axis ( (x+2)  → - (x+2) )

f(x)=\log[-(x+2)]

Stretch horizontally by factor 2 [ -x(x+2) → -2(x+2) ]

f(x)=\log[-2(x+2)]

Shift vertically up by 2 units [ f(x) → f(x) + 2 ]

f(x)=\log[-2(x+2)]+2

Simplify the function:

f(x)=\log(-2x-4)+2

Hence, Using four step of transformation to get new function f(x)=\log(-2x-4)+2

A theatre has the capacity to seat people across two levels, the Circle and
andriy [413]

Answer: 76.19\%

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3> The complete exercise is: " A theatre has the capacity to seat people across two levels, the Circle, and the stalls. The ratio of the number of seats in the circle to a number of seats in the stalls is 2:5. Last Friday, the audience occupied all the 528 seats in the circle and \frac{2}{3} of the seats in the stalls. What is the percentage of occupancy of the theatre last Friday?"</h3>

Let be "s" the total number of seats in the Stalls.

The problem says that the ratio of the number of seats in the Circle to the number of seats in the Stalls is 2:5.

Since the number of seats that were occupied last Friday was 528 seats, we can set up the following proportion:

\frac{2}{5}=\frac{528}{s}

Solving for "s", we get:

s*\frac{2}{5}=528\\\\s=528*\frac{5}{2}\\\\s=1,320

So the sum of the number of seats in the Circle and the number of seats in the Stalls, is:

Total=1,320\ seats+528\ seats=1,848\ seats

 We know that \frac{2}{3} of the seats in the Stalls were occupied. Then, the number of seat in the Stalls that were occupied is:

(1,320)(\frac{2}{3})=880

Therefore, the total number of seats that were occupied las Friday is:

Total\ occupied=880\ seats+528\ seats=1,408\ seats

Knowing this, we can set up the following proportion, where "p" is the the percentage of occupancy of the theatre last Friday:

\frac{100}{1,848}=\frac{p}{1,408}

Solving for "p", we get:

(1,408)(\frac{100}{1,848})=p\\\\p=76.19\%
