Answer:

The sales tax is given as a percent.

To find the dollar amount of the sales tax, divide the sales tax percent by 100 and multiply by the price.

Once you know the sales tax amount, add it to the price to find the total purchase price.

All sides of a square and a pentagon are 9 inches long. Are their perimeters the same? Explain

EastWind [94]

No they wouldn't be the same because, the perimeter is adding all sides.

The square has 4 sides so you would add 9, four times.

9 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 36

And a pentagon has 5 sides so you would add 9, five times.

9 + 9 + 9 + 9 + 9 = 45

So, they are not the same.

Hope this helps. :)

Which rational number must be added to3\7to get -3\4 ?

VladimirAG [237]

$\frac{3}{7}+x=-\frac{3}{4}\\\\\frac{3}{7}(\frac{4}{4})+x=-\frac{3}{4}(\frac{7}{7})\\\\\frac{12}{28}+x=-\frac{21}{28}\\\\x=-\frac{21}{28}-\frac{12}{28}\\\\x=-\frac{33}{28}=1\ \frac{5}{28}$

Which of the following geometric series converges?

Artist 52 [7]

All three series converge, so the answer is D.

The common ratios for each sequence are (I) -1/9, (II) -1/10, and (III) -1/3.

Consider a geometric sequence with the first term a and common ratio |r| < 1. Then the n-th partial sum (the sum of the first n terms) of the sequence is

$S_n=a+ar+ar^2+\cdots+ar^{n-2}+ar^{n-1}$
