At the restaurant, the cost of the meal before tax was
$40. The tax is 8.5%, and Sheri wants to leave at least
an 18% tip. Explain how to approximate the total cost of
the meal.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

so you add then multiply then subtract

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer 2

Answer:

First we estimate the percent's. 8.5% - 10%, 18% - 20%. Then we do the equation. If you add percent's you get 30% multiply that by 40 and you get 12. Add that to you problem and you get $52.  

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the tax and gratuity were 4 and 8 dollars you can just add those up to the 40, but I did it another way.

This is the sample response if you want a better explanation.

The gratuity is about 20% of $40, which is $8. The tax is about 10% of $40, which is $4. So, the total cost is about $40 + $8 + $4 = $52.

Convert 48 inches to feet.

Answers

Answer:

48 inches, 4 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

since each foot is 12 inches and we have 4 feet, we can multiply both numbers to convert 4 feet to inches. 12*4= 48 inches

to convert 48 inches to feet, we can divide by 12 since 12 inches is a foot. 48/12=4 feet

Bender Electronics buys keyboards for its computers from another company. The keyboards are received in shipments of 100 boxes, each box containing 20 keyboards. The quality control department at Bender Electronics first randomly selects one box from each shipment and then randomly selects 5 key boards from that box. The shipment is accepted if not more than 1 of the 5 keyboards is defective. The quality control inspector at Bender Electronics selected a box from a recently received shipment of keyboards. Unknown to the inspector, this box contains 6 defective keyboards.
Round your answers to four decimal places.
a. What is the probability that this shipment will be accepted?
P(shipment accepted)=
b. What is the probability that this shipment will not be accepted?
P(shipment not accepted)=

Answers

Answer:

(a) 0.5282

(b) 0.4718

Step-by-step explanation:

It is provided that the shipment is accepted if not more than 1 of the 5 keyboards is defective. That is for the shipment to be acceptable there should be at most 1 defective .

It is also provided that the box selected has 6 defective keyboards.

So, the probability of selecting a defective keyboard is, p = 6/20.

Let X = number of defective keyboards.

The random variable X follows a binomial distribution with parameters n = 6 and p = 6/20.

(a)

Compute the probability that this shipment will be accepted as follows:

[tex]P(X\leq 1)=P(X=0)+P(X=1)[/tex]

               [tex]=[{5\choose 0}(\frac{6}{20})^{0}(1-\frac{6}{20})^{5}]+[{5\choose 1}(\frac{6}{20})^{1}(1-\frac{6}{20})^{4}]\\\\=0.16807+0.36015\\\\=0.52822\\\\\approx 0.5282[/tex]

Thus, the probability that this shipment will be accepted is 0.5282.

(b)

Compute the probability that this shipment will not be accepted as follows:

P (shipment not accepted) = 1 - P(shipment accepted)

                                          = 1 - 0.5282

                                          = 0.4718

Thus, the probability that this shipment will not be accepted is 0.4718.

WILL GIVE BRAINLIEST!! Which graph shows a slope of 2 and a y-intercept of -2?

Answers

Second one. No problem it

Answer:

The second graph  (where the line goes through the points -2 and 1)

Step-by-step explanation:

A y-intercept is where the line crosses the y axis. The line crosses the y-axis at -2.

Slope is the change in y over the change in x. From -2 to 1, the change in y is 2, it goes up 2, and the change in x is 1 because it goes up 1. Therefore the slope is 2/1 which can be simplified to 2.

A car traveled at a constant speed. The graph shows how far the car traveled, in miles, during a given amount of time, in hours.
The point (3.5,210) is on the graph. Explain what this means in terms of the car.
Is the point (1,60) on this graph? Explain how you know.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A car traveled at a constant speed as shown in the graph.

Distance traveled is on the y-axis and duration of travel on the x-axis.

Point A(3.5, 210) shows,

Distance traveled = 210 miles

Time to travel = 3.5 hours

So the point (3.5, 210) shows the distance traveled by the car in 3.5 hours is 210 miles.

Slope of the line = speed of the car = [tex]\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Time}}[/tex]

                           = [tex]\frac{210}{3.5}[/tex]

                           = 60 mph

Now we will find the speed of the car at another point B(1, 60).

If the speed of car is same as the point B as of point A, point B will lie on the graph.

Speed of the car at B(1, 60) = [tex]\frac{\text{Distance traveled}}{\text{Time}}[/tex]

                                             = [tex]\frac{60}{1}[/tex]

                                             = 60 mph

Hence, we can say that point B(1, 60) lies on the graph.

How do I solve for x?

Answers

Answer:

We will use the thales's theorem to solve for x

Let ? be x

then, the other segment on the same line as x will be 20 - x since the line is 20 units long

According to thales's theorem:

"If a line is drawn parallel to one side of a triangle to intersect the other two sides in distinct points, the other two sides are divided in the same ratio"

Hence, we can write that,

9 / 3 = 20-x / x

3x = 20 -  x

4x = 20

x = 5 units

Hence, the length of the line segment marked as '?' is 5 units

Your teacher didn't put any xy axis on this grid. But I'm assuming that the vectors are coming from the origin (0,0)

If that is the case, then vector v = (-2,4) and vector u = (2,1)

Add the corresponding coordinates to get

v+u = (-2,4)+(2,1) = (-2+2,1+4) = (0,5)

The answer is therefore choice B

The general rule for adding vectors is

if u = (a,b) and v = (c,d), then u+v = (a+c, b+d)

Order the integers from least to greatest which means that the smallest number to the biggest number. Since the biggest number is 100 it goes at the end and 0 is the smallest number so it goes at the end. After that, all you have to do is find which numbers are bigger and smaller. So, the numbers should go in this order 0, 5, 18, 22, 100.
