A customer brings their vehicle in for repairs. The mechanic's itemized bill lists $200.00\$200.00 for labor and $120.00\$120.00 for parts. The customer uses a promotional code that provides a 15%15\% discount on the labor cost. A 5%5\% sales tax is applied only to the cost of the parts. If the customer adds a 20%20\% tip calculated on the original pre-discount labor cost, what is the total amount the customer pays?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $336.00\$336.00

Cevap

The total amount the customer pays is $336.00\$336.00.
The total consists of four separate components: the discounted labor, the parts, the tax, and the tip. First, the discounted labor is $200−(0.15×$200)=$170\$200 - (0.15 \times \$200) = \$170. The parts remain at $120\$120. Second, the 5%5\% sales tax is applied only to the parts, resulting in an additional 0.05×$120=$60.05 \times \$120 = \$6. Finally, the 20%20\% tip is calculated strictly on the original $200\$200 labor cost, yielding $40\$40. Summing these amounts yields $170+$120+$6+$40=$336.00\$170 + \$120 + \$6 + \$40 = \$336.00.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the discounted labor cost.
$170.00\$170.00
A 15%15\% discount on the $200.00\$200.00 labor cost is 0.15×200=300.15 \times 200 = 30. Subtracting this from the original cost gives $200−30=$170\$200 - 30 = \$170.
2
Calculate the sales tax on the parts.
$6.00\$6.00
The 5%5\% tax is only applied to the $120.00\$120.00 parts cost. 0.05×120=60.05 \times 120 = 6.
3
Calculate the tip based on the original labor cost.
$40.00\$40.00
The problem states the 20%20\% tip applies to the original pre-discount labor cost ($200.00\$200.00). 0.20×200=400.20 \times 200 = 40.
4
Sum all final costs to find the total amount paid.
$336.00\$336.00
Add the discounted labor, parts, tax on parts, and tip: $170+$120+$6+$40=$336.00\$170 + \$120 + \$6 + \$40 = \$336.00.

A customer pays for a car detailing service that costs $120.00\$120.00 before tax. If the local sales tax rate is 7%7\%, what is the total cost of the service including tax?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: $128.40\$128.40

Cevap

The total cost of the service is $128.40\$128.40.
To find the total cost, first calculate the sales tax by converting 7%7\% to a decimal (0.070.07) and multiplying it by the original price of $120.00\$120.00, which equals $8.40\$8.40. Then, add this tax amount to the original price ($120.00+$8.40=$128.40\$120.00 + \$8.40 = \$128.40) to get the final total.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Convert the sales tax percentage to a decimal.
7%=0.077\% = 0.07
Percentages must be expressed as decimals to perform mathematical operations.
2
Calculate the amount of sales tax.
$120.00×0.07=$8.40\$120.00 \times 0.07 = \$8.40
Multiplying the base price by the tax rate gives the total tax amount.
3
Add the tax amount to the original price to find the total cost.
$120.00+$8.40=$128.40\$120.00 + \$8.40 = \$128.40
The total cost includes the base price plus the applied tax.

Cevap

The correct matches are: Scenario 1 maps to 5:14, Scenario 2 maps to 2:7, Scenario 3 maps to 15:16, and Scenario 4 maps to 9:25.
Each scenario involves distinct ratio logic: Scenario 1 requires combining parts to find a whole. Scenarios 2 and 4 require breaking a total into parts using an initial ratio, subtracting from one part, and writing a new simplified ratio. Scenario 3 requires using part-to-part logic to find an unknown part given a specific base, then comparing the two results.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the ratios for the Naval Strike Group (Scenario 1).
The total proportion is 22 (cruisers) + 55 (destroyers) + 77 (frigates) = 1414. The ratio of destroyers to total ships is 5:145:14.
You must establish the total baseline by summing the parts before finding the part-to-whole ratio.
2
Determine the new personnel ratio (Scenario 2).
Initially, officers = 1818 and enlisted = 4242. Subtracting 66 officers leaves 1212. The new ratio is 12:4212:42, simplified to 2:72:7.
Changes to one subset of a population require determining the original absolute values first.
3
Compare the fuel additive amounts (Scenario 3).
Correct additive is 38×40=15\frac{3}{8} \times 40 = 15. Mistaken additive is 410×40=16\frac{4}{10} \times 40 = 16. The ratio is 15:1615:16.
Scaling both ratios up to the common base fuel amount of 4040 reveals the exact additive quantities to compare.
4
Adjust the convoy vehicles ratio (Scenario 4).
Initially, cargo = 2525 and escort = 1010. Subtracting 11 escort leaves 99. The required ratio of escort to cargo is 9:259:25.
Calculating initial absolute quantities is necessary before applying the subtraction of 11 vehicle and interpreting the final specific order requested.

For Scenario 2, you can also calculate the fractional drop without finding absolute enlisted numbers. The officer count drops from 1818 to 1212, which is exactly 23\frac{2}{3} of the original amount. Thus, the new ratio must simply be 23\frac{2}{3} of the original officer portion (33) against the same enlisted portion (77), resulting directly in a 2:72:7 ratio.

A neutral phosphorus atom contains 1515 protons and 1616 neutrons. If this atom gains 33 electrons to form a stable phosphide ion, what is the mass number of the resulting ion?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 31

Cevap

The mass number of the resulting phosphide ion is 3131.
The mass number (AA) is defined as the total number of protons and neutrons located in the nucleus (15+16=3115 + 16 = 31). When an atom gains or loses electrons, it forms an ion with an electric charge, but the contents of the nucleus remain unchanged.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the components that determine the mass number of an atom or ion.
Mass number (AA) is calculated as the sum of protons (ZZ) and neutrons (NN).
Electrons have negligible mass relative to nucleons and reside outside the nucleus, so they are not included in the mass number.
2
Calculate the mass number using the given proton and neutron counts.
A=15+16=31A = 15 + 16 = 31
Adding 1515 protons and 1616 neutrons yields the total number of nucleons in the nucleus.
3
Evaluate the effect of gaining 33 electrons on the mass number.
The mass number remains 3131.
Gaining electrons changes only the net electric charge from 00 to −3-3, leaving the nucleus and mass number unaltered.

Anahtar Kavram

The mass number of an atom or ion is strictly the sum of its protons and neutrons (A=Z+NA = Z + N) and does not change during ionization.

A defense contractor manufactures three types of vehicle armor panels: Type A, Type B, and Type C. The ratio of Type A panels to Type B panels produced is 2:32:3. The ratio of Type B panels to Type C panels produced is 4:54:5. If the contractor produces a total of 1,4001,400 panels across all three types, how many Type C panels are produced?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 600

Cevap

600
To find the number of Type C panels, the two separate ratios must first be combined into one continuous ratio. Since Type B is in both ratios (33 parts in the first, 44 parts in the second), we find a common multiple, which is 1212. Scaling the ratios gives Type A : Type B = 8:128:12 and Type B : Type C = 12:1512:15. Combined, the ratio is 8:12:158:12:15. Adding these gives 3535 total parts. Dividing the 1,4001,400 total panels by 3535 reveals each part equals 4040 panels. Because Type C represents 1515 of those parts, we multiply 1515 by 4040 to get 600600 Type C panels.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the overlapping category (Type B) in both given ratios and find the least common multiple for its values (33 and 44).
The least common multiple of 33 and 44 is 1212.
To compare all three panel types simultaneously, they must be expressed within a single, unified ratio sequence.
2
Scale both original ratios so that Type B is represented by 1212 in both.
Multiply the first ratio (2:32:3) by 44 to get 8:128:12. Multiply the second ratio (4:54:5) by 33 to get 12:1512:15.
Multiplying both sides of a ratio by the same number keeps the proportions mathematically equivalent.
3
Combine the scaled ratios into a single three-part ratio and calculate the total number of parts.
The unified ratio of Type A to Type B to Type C is 8:12:158:12:15. The total number of parts is 8+12+15=358 + 12 + 15 = 35.
The total number of parts represents the entire production batch in ratio units.
4
Divide the total actual number of panels by the total ratio parts to find the value of one part, then calculate the total for Type C.
1,400÷35=401,400 \div 35 = 40 panels per part. Type C has 1515 parts, so 15×40=60015 \times 40 = 600 Type C panels.
This scales the ratio back up to the real-world quantities provided in the problem stem.

Cevap

Neutral Carbon-12 matches 6 protons, 6 neutrons, and 6 electrons; Sodium ion (+1) matches 11 protons, 12 neutrons, and 10 electrons; Fluoride ion (-1) matches 9 protons, 10 neutrons, and 10 electrons; Neutral Neon-20 matches 10 protons, 10 neutrons, and 10 electrons.
Each species is correctly matched by identifying protons from the atomic number (ZZ), computing neutrons by subtracting the atomic number from the mass number (A−ZA - Z), and adjusting the electron count according to the ionic charge (e−=Z−chargee^- = Z - \text{charge}).

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the number of protons from the atomic number (ZZ) for each species.
Carbon has 66 protons, Sodium has 1111 protons, Fluorine has 99 protons, and Neon has 1010 protons.
The atomic number uniquely defines the identity of an element and equals the total proton count.
2
Calculate the number of neutrons using Neutrons=Mass Number (A)−Atomic Number (Z)\text{Neutrons} = \text{Mass Number } (A) - \text{Atomic Number } (Z).
Carbon-12 has 12−6=612 - 6 = 6 neutrons; Sodium-23 has 23−11=1223 - 11 = 12 neutrons; Fluorine-19 has 19−9=1019 - 9 = 10 neutrons; Neon-20 has 20−10=1020 - 10 = 10 neutrons.
Mass number is the sum of protons and neutrons in the nucleus.
3
Determine the electron count based on net charge using Electrons=Protons−Charge\text{Electrons} = \text{Protons} - \text{Charge}.
Neutral Carbon has 66 electrons; Na+\text{Na}^{+} has 11−(+1)=1011 - (+1) = 10 electrons; F−\text{F}^{-} has 9−(−1)=109 - (-1) = 10 electrons; neutral Neon has 1010 electrons.
Cations lose electrons to form positive charges, anions gain electrons to form negative charges, and neutral atoms have equal numbers of protons and electrons.

A monochromatic beam of light travels through air and enters a transparent block of crown glass. As the light wave enters the optically denser glass medium, what happens to its speed, wavelength, and frequency?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: Its speed decreases and its wavelength decreases, while its frequency remains constant.

Cevap

Its speed decreases and its wavelength decreases, while its frequency remains constant.
When light transitions from air into a medium with a higher refractive index such as glass, its propagation speed decreases (v=c/nv = c/n). The frequency of the oscillation is an intrinsic property established by the wave source and remains invariant at the interface. By the wave relationship v=fλv = f\lambda, a reduction in wave velocity at constant frequency results in a proportional reduction in wavelength.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Determine the effect of the medium change on wave speed.
The speed of light decreases from c≈3.0×108 m/sc \approx 3.0 \times 10^8\text{ m/s} in air to approximately 2.0×108 m/s2.0 \times 10^8\text{ m/s} in crown glass (n≈1.52n \approx 1.52) based on v=cnv = \frac{c}{n}.
An increase in optical density (higher index of refraction) reduces the propagation speed of electromagnetic waves.
2
Determine the behavior of wave frequency across the medium boundary.
The frequency (ff) remains completely unchanged.
Wave frequency is set solely by the emitting source and is conserved across media boundaries because the number of wave cycles arriving per second must equal the number transmitted.
3
Apply the wave equation to determine the resulting change in wavelength.
The wavelength (λ\lambda) decreases proportionally with speed according to λ=vf\lambda = \frac{v}{f}.
With speed vv reduced and frequency ff constant, the spatial distance between consecutive crests must shorten.

Anahtar Kavram

Wave speed and wavelength changes during medium transition under constant frequency (v=fλv = f\lambda).

A Navy Seabee is framing a new barracks and starts with a wooden board that is 163816 \frac{3}{8} feet long. For the first section of the frame, a piece measuring 4344 \frac{3}{4} feet is cut from the board. For the second section, another piece measuring 5565 \frac{5}{6} feet is cut. Assuming there is no waste from the saw cuts, what is the remaining length of the wooden board?

Cevabı ve açıklamayı göster

Cevap: 519245 \frac{19}{24}

Cevap

The remaining length of the wooden board is 519245 \frac{19}{24} feet.
To find the remaining length, the lengths of the two cut pieces must first be added together. Finding a common denominator of 24, the cuts are 418244 \frac{18}{24} and 520245 \frac{20}{24}. Their sum is 938249 \frac{38}{24}, which regroups to 10142410 \frac{14}{24}. Next, subtract this total from the original board length: 16924−10142416 \frac{9}{24} - 10 \frac{14}{24}. Since 924\frac{9}{24} is smaller than 1424\frac{14}{24}, borrowing from the whole number is required: 153324−101424=5192415 \frac{33}{24} - 10 \frac{14}{24} = 5 \frac{19}{24}.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Calculate the total length of the wooden board that was cut off.
434+556=41824+52024=93824=1014244 \frac{3}{4} + 5 \frac{5}{6} = 4 \frac{18}{24} + 5 \frac{20}{24} = 9 \frac{38}{24} = 10 \frac{14}{24} feet.
Adding the removed sections determines the total amount to subtract from the original board.
2
Set up the subtraction of the total cut length from the original length.
1638−101424=16924−10142416 \frac{3}{8} - 10 \frac{14}{24} = 16 \frac{9}{24} - 10 \frac{14}{24}
A common denominator is needed to subtract the fractions.
3
Borrow from the whole number to subtract the fractions.
153324−101424=5192415 \frac{33}{24} - 10 \frac{14}{24} = 5 \frac{19}{24} feet.
Since 924\frac{9}{24} is less than 1424\frac{14}{24}, borrowing 11 (or 2424\frac{24}{24}) from the whole number 1616 makes the subtraction possible.

The scenarios pair correctly with 12 hours, 6 hours, 9 hours, and 30 hours respectively based on their constant products.
Each scenario involves an inverse relationship where the product of the two given quantities forms a constant. Dividing this constant by the new condition yields the correctly paired time.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the relationship for each scenario.
All four scenarios represent inverse proportions, meaning the product of the two variables (e.g., workers and time, speed and time) remains constant (x1×y1=x2×y2x_1 \times y_1 = x_2 \times y_2).
When one variable increases (like adding more workers or driving faster), the time required decreases proportionally.
2
Calculate the constant product for each individual scenario.
Engineer-hours: 18×14=25218 \times 14 = 252. Distance: 36×4.5=16236 \times 4.5 = 162. Fan-hours: 15×6=9015 \times 6 = 90. Generator-hours: 16×45=72016 \times 45 = 720.
This establishes the total amount of work, distance, or resource available before the change in variables.
3
Divide each constant product by the new given variable to find the new time.
Runway: 252÷21=12252 \div 21 = 12. Boat: 162÷27=6162 \div 27 = 6. Fans: 90÷10=990 \div 10 = 9. Generators: 720÷24=30720 \div 24 = 30.
Applying the inverse proportion formula (y2=kx2y_2 = \frac{k}{x_2}) isolates the unknown time.

$24\$24
The correct answer is found by taking the principal ($1,200\$1,200), multiplying it by the annual interest rate (0.040.04), and then multiplying by the time in years (0.50.5). This results in $1,200×0.04×0.5=$24\$1,200 \times 0.04 \times 0.5 = \$24.

Adım Adım Çözüm

1
Identify the given values for principal, rate, and time.
Principal (P) = $1,200. Rate (R) = 4% or 0.04. Time (T) = 6 months.
These are the necessary components for the simple interest formula.
2
Convert the time period from months into years.
6 months ÷ 12 months/year = 0.5 years.
The annual interest rate requires the time to be expressed in years.
3
Calculate the interest using the formula I = PRT.
I = 1200 × 0.04 × 0.5 = 48 × 0.5 = 24.
This yields the total interest earned over the given time period.
