12 POINTS TO THE BRAINLIEST ANSWER!!!! PLEASE HELP!! Tess and Dan have $24.00 each to spend at a book fair, where all students receive a 15% discount. They both want to purchase a copy of the same book, which normally sells for $24.50 plus 10% sales tax. To check if she has enough to purchase the book, Tess takes 15% of $24.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. She takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount. Dan takes 85% of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% of the reduced price. Is Tess correct? Is Dan correct? Do they have enough money to purchase the book? Explain your answer using complete sentences. PLEASE ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

yes Dan and Tess have enough money because the price is 22.9075 after discount

Step-by-step explanation:

the  original price of the book=24.50

the price of the book with taxes : 24.5+(24.5*10 %)=26.95 Dollars

the price for the students is :  24.50-(24.5*15%)=20.825

the price to students +tax= 20.825+(20.825*10%)= 22.9075

See what Tess did:

she took 15 % from original price :24.50-(24.5*15%)=20.825

she took 10 % of discounted price :20.825.50*10%= 1.04125

adds it back to find the purchase amount:1.04125+20.825=21.86625

what Dan did:

Dan takes 85% of the normal purchase price: 24.50*85%= 20.825

then compute 110% to the discounted price: 20.825*110%=22.9075

Dan is right, he will pay 22.9075 which is actually the price that the student pay for the book after the discount. what Tess is that she calculated the tax before discount, she has to calculate the tax after discount.

Jenna traveled to Mexico. Before returning home, she converted all her pesos back into dollars. How much did she receive if she exchanged 1047.5 pesos at a rate of 5 dollars = 115.21 pesos?

Answers

Answer:

Dollars= $45.46

Step-by-step explanation:

Giving the following information:

Pesos= 1,047.5

Exchange rate:

5 dollars= 115.21

First, we need to determine the exchange rate for 1 dollar:

1 dollar= 115.21/5

1 dollar= 23.042 pesos

Now, for 1,047.5 pesos:

Dollars= total pesos / exchange rate

Dollars= 1,047.5/23.042

Dollars= $45.46

Answer:

45.46 dollars

What is the equation of the line passing through the points (4,8) and (-1,-12)

Answers

Answer:

y=4x-8 hope this helps:)

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!!

You can find the equation of a st.line passing through points using one point formula if only one point is given and slope is given , else find it by using two point formula (if 2 points are given).

Here, the points are, (4,8) and (-1,-12).

Using two point formula,

[tex](y - y1) = \frac{y2 - y1}{x2 - x1} (x - x1)[/tex]

Keep all values,

[tex](y - 8) = \frac{ - 12 - 8}{ - 1 - 4} (x - 4)[/tex]

Now, simplify them.

[tex](y - 8) = 5(x - 4)[/tex]

y - 8 = 5x -20

5x -y -20+8 = 0

Therefore, 5x - y -12 = 0 is the required equation.

You drive 351.6 miles using 16.4 gallons of gasoline. At this rate, how many gallons of gasoline would you need to drive 1000 miles? Round your answer to the tenth place (one place after the decimal).

Answers

Answer:

46.6 gallons

Step-by-step explanation:

351.6 miles = 16.4 gallons

1000 miles = x gallons

simply cross multiply

351.6 × x = 1000× 16.4 gallons

351.6x = 16400 gallons

x = 16400÷ 351.6

x= 46.643913538

x = 46.6 gallons (rounded to the tenth place)

What is the distance between (9,-4) and (-22, 8)?

Answers

Answer:

≈ 33.2 units

Calculate the distance d using the distance formula

d = [tex]\sqrt{(x_{2}-x_{1})^2+(y_{2}-y_{1})^2 }[/tex]

with (x₁, y₁ ) = (9, - 4) and (x₂, y₂ ) = (- 22, 8)

d = [tex]\sqrt{(-22-9)^2+(8+4)^2}[/tex]

matthew opened a checking account with 150. On monday, he bought lunch for 9.30 and wrote a check for 25.75. He deposited 75 on wednesday, and 65.18 was deducted for his car insurance on thursday. How mch money was remaining in his account

Answers

Answer:

124.77

Step-by-step explanation:

Matthew opened a checking account with 150

On Monday he bought lunch for 9.30 and wrote a check for 25.75

He deposited 75 on Wednesday

On thursday 65.18 was deducted from the account for his car insurance

The total expenses incurred on Monday can be calculated as follows

=9.30+25.75

= 35.05

This means that 35.05 will be debited from his account

On wednesday, he made a deposit of 75, this implies that a credit will be made to his checking account

On thursday, 65.18 was removed from his account for car insurance

Therefore since the initial balance of the account was 150 then, the remaining money that will be left in his account can be calculated as follows

= 150-35.05+75-65.18

= 124.77

Hence the money remaining in Matthew's account is 124.77

Answer:

The answer is 124.77

515x + 285y=11,080. X+Y=30

Answers

Answer:

work is shown and pictured

Answer:

x = 11, y = 19.

Step-by-step explanation:

515x + 285y=11,080

x + y = 30

Divide first equation by 5:

103x +57y = 2216

Now multiply the second equation by -57:

-57x - 57y =  -1710

Adding the last 2 equations:

46x = 506

x = 506/46 = 11

Substituting for x in x + y = 30:

11 + y = 30

y = 19.

I think the answer is 3$ because if you divide each item by the price you get 1 3 and 5 3 is more likely to be the middle so that would be your average price the unit rate of each of the items is dividing the price by the number of items to get the price of one item or your unit rate.

The cost of coffee is determined by the type of coffee beans that are mixed together. The cost of a local mix of Arabica and Robusta beans is modeled by the equation below, where A = the pounds of Arabica and R = pounds of Robusta: (2 points) 700A + 1200R = 1,000,000 If a mixture contains 1000 pounds of Arabica beans, how many pounds of Robusta beans should be in the mixture?

Answers

Answer:

If a mixture contains 1000 pounds of Arabica beans, there should be 250 pounds of Robusta beans in the mixture.

Step-by-step explanation:

700A+1,200R=1,000,000

700(1000) +1,200R=1,000,000 - First, plug in the A value and simplify .

700000+1,200R=1,000,000 - Then, subtract 700,000 from both sides.

1,200R=300,000 - Finally, divide by 1,200 on both sides of the equation.

R=250  - This is your value for R, or the Robusta beans.

250 pounds of Robusta beans

A new Youth Sports Center is being built in Hadleyville, The perimeter of the rectangular playing field is 430 yards. The length of the field is 5 yards

the width. What are the dimensions of the playing field?

The width is

yards

The length is

yards

Answers

Answer:

Width = 44 yards

Length = 171 yards

Step-by-step explanation:

given data

length of the field = 5 yards

Perimeter of the rectangular field = 430 yards.

solution

we consider here length of the field = L

and width of the field = W

as we know length of the field 5yards less than quadruple the width

so here

L = 4W - 5       .....................................1

and  

Perimeter (P) will be here

P = 2(L + W)      ............................................2

put here equation 1 value

430 = 2(4W - 5 + W)  

solve it we get

W = 44

so here put value in eq 1 we het

L = 4W - 5          

L = 4(44) - 5

L = 171

so, length of the field is 171 yards

46) option D is not true

Question 45

The two remote interior angles 3x and 2x add to the exterior angle 150. This is an application of the remote interior angle theorem

2x+3x = 150

5x = 150

x = 150/5

x = 30

angle BAC = 2x = 2*30 = 60 degrees

Answer: 60 degrees

===================================================

Question 46

Choice A is true because of what I mentioned in the previous problem.

Choice B is true because we can find that angle C is 180-150 = 30. Then we can say A+B+C = 2x+3x+30 = 180 as all three interior angles of any triangle always add to 180.

Choice C is true since the equation above x = 30 can be written as 3x-2x = 30. It's a bit of a strange thing to do this, but it's still a valid statement.

Choice D is not true since 2x+3x is 150, which isn't 180 or larger. Even if we didn't know about the 150 at all, we still can't have 2 interior angles of a triangle add to 180 or larger (refer back to choice B).

Answer: Choice D
