Olivia pays $189 for a painting, including tax.

If the actual price is $179.50, what is the sales tax rate?

Answers

Answer 1
0.05 or 5%

1. you would take 189 and subtract 179.50

2. from that you would get 9.50

3. you would then divide 9.50 by 179.50

4. therefore the tax rate would be 0.05 or 5%
Answer 2

The sales tax rate = 5.29%

What is the formula for tax rate?

"Tax rate = (Tax amount / Price before tax) × 100% "

What is the formula for tax amount?

"Tax amount = Final price - Price before tax"

For given question,

Olivia pays $189 for a painting, including tax.

⇒ Final price = $189

The actual price of the painting is $179.50

⇒ Price before tax = $179.50

Using the formula of tax amount,

Tax amount = Final price - Price before tax

Tax amount = 189 - 179.50

Tax amount = 9.5

Now we find the sales tax rate.

Using the formula of tax rate,

Tax rate = (Tax amount ÷ Price before tax) × 100%

Tax rate = [tex]\frac{9.5}{179.50} \times 100~\%[/tex]

Tax rate = 5.29%

Therefore, the sales tax rate = 5.29%

The area of a triangle is found using the formula bh/2, where b is the base and h is the height. What is the area in square inches of a triangle with a height of 6 inches and a base of 8 inches?

Answers

Answer:

A = 24 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A = 1/2 bh

Let b = 8 and h = 6

A = 1/2 (8)(6)

A = 24 in^2

Given :

The area of a triangle is found using the formula bh/2, where b is the base and h is the height. What is the area in square inches of a triangle with a height of 6 inches and a base of 8 inches?

Solution :

Given Data :

Height = 6 inches

Base = 8 inches

Formula for Area of traingle is :

[tex] \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \: \star \: \: \: \red{ \underline{ \red{ \overline{ \orange{ \boxed{ \pink{\frak{Area \: of \: Triangle = \frac{1}{2} × Base × Height }}}}}}}}[/tex]

So, putting the values of Base and Height we get

[tex] \leadsto \frak{Area = \frac{1}{2} × 8 \times 6 }[/tex]

[tex] \leadsto \frak{Area = \frac{1}{ \cancel2} × \cancel 8 \times 6 }[/tex]

[tex] \leadsto \frak{Area = 4 \times 6 }[/tex]

[tex] \leadsto \frak{Area = 24 \: {in}^{2} }[/tex]

Hence, the area of the traingle is 24 inches²

Steve buys a wallet that costs $35.00. He pays 10% sales tax. How much does he pay for the wallet with tax?

A. $48.50
B. $38.50
C. $18.50
D. $45.50

Answers

Answer:

B. $38.50

Step-by-step explanation:

The original price of item (before tax) is 100% of the price of the item since 100% means the whole amount.

The tax is 10% of the original price, so add 10% to 100% making it 110%.

The total price including tax is 110% of the original price.

We need to find 110% of $35.00.

To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.

110% of $35.00 = 110% * $35.00

Change the percent to a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left.

110% becomes 1.10 as a decimal

110% of $35.00 = 110% * $35.00 = 1.10 * $35.00 = $38.50

Answer: B. $38.50

B, because you take the 10% and you turn the percent into the decimal by move it to the right two times so then it will look like this .10 after you take that and divide by 35 which will give you $3.50 which is the tax and then you add that to your amount and you have $38.50
