A purchase costs $25.79 plus a tax of $1.29. Find the sales tax rate.

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The sales tax rate is 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine the sales tax rate if you already know the amount of tax being added to the purchase price, divide the amount of tax by the purchase price. In this example, divide $1.29 (amount of tax being added) by $25.79 (purchase price). When you do that, you will see that the answer is 0.0500, or 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

the last dude had it close but it was basically flipped as you can tell.

The answer is (C) [tex]R_2=\frac{R_TR_1}{(R_1-R_T)}[/tex]

We need to make [tex]R_2[/tex] the subject of the formula [tex]R_T=\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}[/tex]

First remove the denominator by multiplying both sides by the binomial [tex](R_1+R_2)[/tex]

[tex]R_T\times (R_1+R_2)=\frac{R_1R_2}{R_1+R_2}\times(R_1+R_2)\\\\R_TR_1+R_TR_2=R_1R_2[/tex]

Arrange all terms containing [tex]R_2[/tex] on one side

[tex]R_1R_2-R_TR_2=R_TR_1[/tex]

Factor out [tex]R_2[/tex] from the LHS

[tex]R_2(R_1-R_T)=R_TR_1[/tex]

Finally, divide both sides by the binomial [tex](R_1-R_T)[/tex] to leave [tex]R_2[/tex]

[tex]R_2(R_1-R_T)\times\frac{1}{(R_1-R_T)}=R_TR_1\times\frac{1}{(R_1-R_T)}\\\\R_2=\frac{R_TR_1}{(R_1-R_T)}[/tex]

Answer:

1:1:√ 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

u = 14

v = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

since both angles around the 90 degree angle are the same, also the sides need to be of equal length. v = u

so, we can use Pythagoras

(14×sqrt(2))² = u² + u² = 2u²

196×2 = 2u²

196 = u²

u = 14 = v

y = 1 over 3.x − 1

y = 3x − 1

y = −x + 1 over 3.

y = 3x + 1

Answers

Answer:

y=3x - 1

Step-by-step explanation:

we are going to base the answer off of the y=mx+b form where m represents slope and b represents the y-intercept.

we know that b must be -1 because the line hits the y-axis when y is -1

this now leaves us with either the first or second choice

we then choose two points to find the slope. I am using (0,-1) and (1,2). If you count the boxes, the y-value increases by 3 as the x-value increases by 1. So the slope is 3/1 or 3.

so then we know the answer is y=3x-1

if U= π(r+h), find r when U =16/1/2 and h = 2/3/4

π = 3/1/7​

Answers

Answer:

r = 2.5

Step-by-step explanation:

U= π(r+h)

Where,

U = 16 1/2

h = 2 3/4

π = 3 1/7​

U= π(r+h)

16 1/2 = 3 1/7(r + 2 3/4)

33/2 = 22/7(r + 11/4)

33/2 = 22/7r + (22/7 * 11/4)

33/2 = 22/7r + 242/28

33/2 - 242/28 = 22/7r

(462-242) / 28 = 22/7r

220/28 = 22/7r

r = 220/28 ÷ 22/7

= 220/28 × 7/22

= (220 * 7) / (28 * 22)

= 1540/616

= 2.5

r = 2.5

Write the exponential function that passes through (-1, 27), (0, 9), (1, 3).​

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

we see, for x=-1 we get 3³

x=0 we get 3²

x=1 we get 3¹

so the function is definitely a 3 to the power of x version.

but we need to adapt the exponent a bit and correct x, so that at least for these 3 values of x the result is "running backwards".

the easiest way : 2-x as exponent.

it fits.

for x=-1 we get 2 - -1 = 3 as exponent.

for x=0 we get 2-0 = 2 as exponent.

for x=1 we get 2-1 = 1 as exponent.

so, the exponential function passing through these 3 points is

[tex]f(x) = {3}^{2 - x} [/tex]

PLEASE HELP PLEASE!!!! AB←→||CD←→ . Find the measure of ∠BFG.

Answers

Answer:

BFG = 135

Step-by-step explanation:

The angles are alternate interior angles and alternate interior angles are equal when the lines are parallel

3x+15 = 5x-5

Subtract 3x from each side

3x+15-3x = 5x-5-3x

15 = 2x-5

Add 5 to each side

15+5 = 2x-5+5

20 = 2x

Divide by 2

20/2 = 2x/2

10 =x

We know that AFG + BFG = 180 since it forms a straight line

AFG + BFG = 180

3x+15 + BFG = 180

3(10) + 15  + BFG = 180

30+15 + BFG = 180

45 + BFG = 180

BFG = 180-45

BFG = 135

Answer:

<BFG = 135

Step-by-step explanation:

They are the same angle, so they will be equal to eachother.

3x + 15 = 5x - 5

-3x          -3x

----------------------

     15   = 2x - 5

     +5           +5

-----------------------

     20 = 2x

     -----   ----

       2      2

      10 = x

3(10) + 15

30 + 15

   45

180-45 = 135

The answer is 135.
