Answer:
<em>1) 6%</em>
<em>2) $1,689.35</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
1) Given the following
Sales tax = $64.80
Price of the computer = $1080
Required
rate of sales tax
Using the expression
x% of 1080 = 64.80
x/100 * 1080 = 64.80
10.80x = 64.80
x = 64.80/10.80
x = 6%
<em>Hence the rate of sales tax is 6%</em>
<em></em>
2) Given the following
Price of the car = $25,990
Tax rate = 6.5%
Sales tax charged = 6.5% of $25,990
Sales tax charged = 6.5/100 * 25,990
Sales tax charged = 6.5 * 259.9
Sales tax charged = $1,689.35
<em>hence the sales tax being charged is $1,689.35</em>
-50 to -51; 49 to 50; -48 to -49; 48 to 49; 50 to 51
I just add one
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Area of triangle: x^(2)
Area of rectangle: 3x^(2) - 5x + 2
The inequality: x^(2) < 3x^(2) - 5x + 2
Solutions: x < 1/2 or x > 2
Values of x (if x > 2): 3,4,5,6
Values of x (if x < 1/2): 1/3, 1/4, 1/5, 1/6
The subtraction function

is defined as the subtraction of the two equations, representing each function:

So, we have

X= smaller number
4x= larger number
SMALLER NUMBER
4x - x= 9
combine like terms
3x= 9
divide both sides by 3
x= 3
LARGER NUMBER
4x= 4(3)= 12
ANSWER: The smaller number is 3 and the larger number is 12
Hope this helps! :)
