The shelter has three sides. The length of the (back wall) is 3.25 feet. The total length of all three sides is 6 feet and the two other sides (width of the shelter) are the same length. What is the length of each side (width).

Answer 1

Let's denote the length of the back wall as \( L \) (which is given as 3.25 feet) and the width of each of the two sides as \( W \).

According to the problem, the total length of all three sides is 6 feet. This gives us the equation:

\[ L + 2W = 6 \]

Substituting the value of \( L \) into the equation:

\[ 3.25 + 2W = 6 \]

Now, we can solve for \( W \):

1. Subtract 3.25 from both sides:

\[ 2W = 6 - 3.25 \]

\[ 2W = 2.75 \]

2. Divide both sides by 2:

\[ W = \frac{2.75}{2} \] \[ W = 1.375 \]

Thus, the length of each side (width) of the shelter is \( 1.375 \) feet.

Answer 2

Bailey lives in a city where the total sales tax is 9% if the cost of food is 21.25 how much tax will bailey owe on her order.

Answer 3

To calculate the sales tax owed on Bailey's food order, you can use the following formula:

\[ \text{Sales Tax} = \text{Cost of Food} \times \text{Sales Tax Rate} \]

Given:

• Cost of Food = \( 21.25 \)
• Sales Tax Rate = \( 9% = 0.09 \)

Now, plug in the values:

\[ \text{Sales Tax} = 21.25 \times 0.09 \]

Calculating that:

\[ \text{Sales Tax} = 1.9125 \]

So, Bailey will owe approximately $1.91 in sales tax on her order.

Answer 4

bailey is really hungry so she wants to order some food and an iced coffee from starbucks through grubhub Bailey lives in a city where the total sales tax is 9% if the cost of food is 21.25 how much tax will bailey owe on her order. including tax what is the total cost of Starbucks for bailey.

Answer 5

To find out how much tax Bailey will owe on her order and the total cost including tax, follow these steps:

1. Calculate the Sales Tax: \[ \text{Sales Tax} = \text{Cost of Food} \times \text{Sales Tax Rate} \]

   Given:

   • Cost of Food = \( 21.25 \)
   • Sales Tax Rate = \( 9% = 0.09 \)

   \[ \text{Sales Tax} = 21.25 \times 0.09 = 1.9125 \]

   Rounding this to the nearest cent, the sales tax is approximately $1.91.

2. Calculate the Total Cost Including Tax: \[ \text{Total Cost} = \text{Cost of Food} + \text{Sales Tax} \]

   \[ \text{Total Cost} = 21.25 + 1.91 = 23.16 \]

Thus, including tax, the total cost for Bailey's order from Starbucks is approximately $23.16.

Answer 6

bailey is really hungry so she wants to order some food and an iced coffee from starbucks through grubhub Bailey lives in a city where the total sales tax is 9% if the cost of food is 21.25 how much tax will bailey owe on her order. including tax what is the total cost of Starbucks for bailey. Grubhub charges a 3.50 delivery fee and she wants to tip the driver 4.00 how much will bailey spend all together on lunch

Answer 7

To calculate how much Bailey will spend altogether on her lunch, let's break it down into steps:

1. Calculate the Sales Tax: \[ \text{Sales Tax} = \text{Cost of Food} \times \text{Sales Tax Rate} \] Given:

   • Cost of Food = \( 21.25 \)
   • Sales Tax Rate = \( 9% = 0.09 \)

   \[ \text{Sales Tax} = 21.25 \times 0.09 = 1.9125 \]

   Rounding this to the nearest cent, the sales tax is approximately $1.91.

2. Calculate the Total Cost Including Food and Tax: \[ \text{Total Cost (Food + Tax)} = \text{Cost of Food} + \text{Sales Tax} \]

   \[ \text{Total Cost (Food + Tax)} = 21.25 + 1.91 = 23.16 \]

3. Add the Delivery Fee: Grubhub charges a delivery fee of \( 3.50 \). \[ \text{Total Cost with Delivery} = 23.16 + 3.50 = 26.66 \]

4. Add the Tip: Bailey wants to tip the driver \( 4.00 \). \[ \text{Total Cost with Tip} = 26.66 + 4.00 = 30.66 \]

Thus, altogether, Bailey will spend $30.66 on lunch.
