Response:

Total amount paid by the customer = $192.40

Detailed breakdown:

The online price of the item = $299

Shipping and handling fee = $10

Rebate amount = $99

Credit from returning an old cell phone = $25

Thus, overall cost for the mobile phone = 299 + 10 - 99 - 25

= $185

Applying sales tax on the total = 4%

Total amount paid by the customer = 185 + 4% of 185

= 185 + 0.4 × 185

= $192.40

Two planes A and B can each fly through still air at 550 mph. The distance from Paris to Los Angeles is 5000 miles. Wind blows f

PIT_PIT [3949]

Answer:2688.63 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The distance from Paris to Los Angeles $d=5000 miles$

Wind traveling at 100 mph from Los Angeles to Paris

The velocity of the plane through still air is $v=550 mph$

Relative velocity of Plane A is $v_a=550-100 =450 mph$ since Plane A is heading against the wind

Relative velocity of Plane B is $v_b=550+100=650 mph$

Plane A departs at noon

Distance covered by Plane A in 1 hour $=450\times 1=450 miles$

The total separation distance between the planes is $5000-450=4550 miles$

Assuming they meet after t hours

Distance covered by Plane B in that time frame $=v_b\times t=650\times t$

Distance traveled by Plane A in t hours is $=v_a\times t=450 t$

The total distance equals 4550 miles

$4550=650t+450t$

$t=\frac{4550}{1100}$

$t=4.13 hr$

Distance traveled by B is $=650\times 4.136=2688.63 miles$

thus, they meet at a point 2688.63 miles away from Los Angeles.

A solid oblique cone with a slant length of 17 units is placed inside an empty cylinder with a congruent base of radius 8 units

PIT_PIT [3949]

Step $1$

Calculate the volume of a cylinder

We understand that

the volume of a cylinder can be expressed as

$V1=\pi r^{2} h$

In this scenario

$r=8\ units \\ h=15\ units$

Insert the values

$V1=\pi 8^{2} 15$

$V1=960\pi\ units^{3}$

Step $2$

Calculate the volume of a cone

We are aware that

the volume of a cone equals

$V2=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2} h$

In this example

$r=8\ units \\ l=17\ units \\ h=?$

Use the Pythagorean Theorem to determine the height h

$h^{2} =l^{2}-r^{2}\\ h^{2} =17^{2}-8^{2}\\ h^{2}=225\\ h=15\ units$

$V2=\frac{1}{3}\pi 8^{2} 15\\ \\ V2=320\pi \ units^{3}$

Step $3$

Calculate the empty volume inside the cylinder

$V1-V2=960\pi -320\pi =640\pi \ units^{3}$

Thus

the final result is

the empty volume inside the cylinder is $640\pi \ units^{3}$

On her birthday, Sonia distributed chocolates in an orphanage. She gave 5 chocolates to each child and 20 chocolates to adults.

Svet_ta [4341]

Answer with explanation:

Total number of children = x

Total chocolates shared = y

In total, the chocolates distributed to the children equals 5 times the number of children, or 5 x.

Chocolates received by adults equal 20.

Let the number of adults be z.

Expressing this situation as an equation:

y = 5 x + 20 z

$z=\frac{y-5 x}{20}$

⇒Number of adults = z

$=\frac{y-5 x}{20}$
