Why must you first calculate a discount price on an item before calculating the total sales tax on the item?
The discount must be calculated first to get the base price of the item, then the tax percentage would be taken into consideration, otherwise you would be charging additional tax on an item which should be discounted in the first place. If you were to calculate tax first then the discount price, your total would be incorrect.

What is kurtosis?
I will answer your question in a couple of ways. First as a concept: Kurtosis is a measure of whether the data are peaked or flat relative to a normal distribution. That is, data sets with high kurtosis tend to have a distinct peak near the mean, decline rather rapidly, and have heavy tails. Data sets with low kurtosis tend to have a flat top near the mean rather than a sharp peak. A uniform distribution would be the extreme case. Now as a mathematical formula: For univariate data Y1, Y2, ..., YN, the formula for kurtosis is:where is the mean, is the standard deviation, and N is the number of data points.

How do you calculate the collapse pressure for pipe?
For calculating the collapse pressure of a pipe, you first need to calculate the Hoop stress, which is given by :- Stress = Circumferencial Force/(radial thickness*axial length) If the stress crosses this value the pipe would collapse.
How do calculate voltage drop in a circuit?
for calculating the voltage drop in ckt first of all you have to calculate the total resistance of the ckt as well as total current also then applying ohm's law v=IR u can calculate the voltage drop across a ckt While the answer is correct you might investigate thevenin theory.
How do you calculate prices?
Calculating price increase takes several steps. First, the actual increase must be determined. Then the difference must be divided in order to find out the actual percentage of the price increase.
What year did William Seward Burroughs invent first calculating machine?
he filed the patent for his first calculating machine in 1885 then improved one in in 1892
What were the calculating devices before the invention of computer?
The earliest recorded calculating device is the abacus. Used as a simple computing device for performing arithmetic, the abacus most likely appeared first in Babylonia (now Iraq) over 5000 years ago.
