Answer:

$ 293.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The allowance given by the store = $ 10.50,

The original cost of the dress = $ 285.99,

So, the cost of the dress after allowance = 285.99 - 10.50

= $ 275.49,

Now, the sales tax = 6.5 %,

Hence, the final amount of the dress after tax = (100+6.5)% of 275.49

= 106.5% of 275.49

=\frac{106.5\times 275.49}{100}

=\frac{29339.685}{100}

= $ 293.39685

≈ $ 293.40

A triangle has interior angles measuring 36° and 112°. Which triangles are similar to this triangle? Select True or False for ea
morpeh [17]
Hi there!

Since the interior measures of triangles added up always equals 180 degrees, the other interior angle of the triangle must be 32 degrees. 

180 - 112 - 36 = 32

So, any triangle with interior measures that measure any angles of 36, 112, and 32 degrees are similar.

<span>triangle with interior angles measuring 36° and 32° - true
triangle with interior angles measuring 36° and 148° - false
triangle with interior angles measuring 32° and 112° - true
triangle with interior angles measuring 112° and 148 - </span>false

Hope this helps!

Drew burned 1,800 calories Friday playing 1 hour of basketball and canoeing for 2 hours. On Saturday, he spent 2 hours playing b
V125BC [204]

Answer:

He burnt 1000 calories per hour when playing basketball.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let B be calories burned playing basketball, and C calories burned canoing.

1800 = B + 2C

3200 = 2B + 3C

From 1st equatipn, we get that B = 1800 - 2C

Replacing into the 2nd equation, we have:

3200 = 2(1800-2C) + 3C

3200 = 3600 - 4C + 3C

3200 = 3600 - 1C

C = 3600 - 3200

C = 400

Knowing C, we find B.

B = 1800 - 2C = 1800 - 2*400 = 1800 - 800 = 1000 calories.
