Find the amount of tax and the tax rate. Round to nearest hundredth of a percent.

Mathematics

since the selling price is 89.83 and the cost of is 76, the tax amount is 89.83 - 76 = 13.83.

if we take 76 to be the 100%, what is 13.83 off of it in percentage?

\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 76 & 100\\ 13.83& x \end{array} \implies \cfrac{76}{13.83}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 76x=1383\implies x=\cfrac{1383}{76}\implies x\approx 18.20

san4es73 [151]

We are given,

\longrightarrow 0.2(10 - 5c) = 5c - 16

Solving the parenthesis

{ \longrightarrow 0.2 \times 10 - 0.2 \times 5c = 5c - 16 }

{ \longrightarrow 2 - 1c = 5c - 16 }

{ \longrightarrow 2  + 16 = 5c + 1c }

{ \longrightarrow  18  = 6c }

Dividing both sides by 6

{ \longrightarrow  3 = c }

Hence c = 3.

How much is 3 over 15 plus 1 over 3
REY [17]

Answer:

8/15

Step-by-step explanation:

Well to add fractions you have to have the same denominator so you would multiply your 1/3 by 5 to be 5/15 then you can add.

3/15 + 5/15 = 8/15

Workers on the assembly line produce 4x + 6 boats each day. Which expression shows how many boats they produced in 12 days?
Annette [7]
We're going to assume that x = # of days.
Plug 12 in as x:
4 × 12 = 48
48 + 6 = 54
They produced 54 boats in 12 days.

Check the true statements below:
valentinak56 [21]

Answer:

a) False

b) False

c) True

d) False

e) False

Step-by-step explanation:

a. A single vector by itself is linearly dependent. False

If v = 0 then the only scalar c such that cv = 0 is c = 0. Hence, 1vl is linearly independent. A set consisting of a single vector v is linearly dependent if and only if v = 0. Therefore, only a single zero vector is linearly dependent, while any set consisting of a single nonzero vector is linearly independent.

b. If H= Span{b1,....bp}, then {b1,...bp} is a basis for H. False

A sets forms a basis for vector space, only if it is linearly independent and spans the space. The fact that it is a spanning set alone is not sufficient enough to form a basis.

c. The columns of an invertible n × n matrix form a basis for Rⁿ. True

If a matrix is invertible, then its columns are linearly independent and every row has a pivot element. The columns, can therefore, form a basis for Rⁿ.

d.  In some cases, the linear dependence relations among the columns of a matrix can be affected by certain elementary row operations on the matrix. False

Row operations can not affect linear dependence among the columns of a matrix.

e. A basis is a spanning set that is as large as possible. False

A basis is not a large spanning set. A basis is the smallest spanning set.
