Answer: $86.65

Step-by-step explanation:

First, find how much Justine paid in tax. To do this, first convert 13% to a decimal by dividing by 100. This gets a tax rate of 0.13. Now, multiply the price of the boots by the tax rate. 76.68*0.13 = 9.9684. Round to the nearest cent to get $9.97.

Now, add the amount paid in tax to the price of the boots. 76.68+9.97 = $86.65.

Answer: 1) 1/3,654 2) 3/406 3) 72,684,900,288,000 4) 120

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

1) First and Second and Third

$\dfrac{3\ total\ prizes}{29\ total\ people}\times \dfrac{2\ remaining\ prizes}{28\ remaining\ people}\times \dfrac{1\ remaining\ prize}{27\ remaining\ people}=\dfrac{6}{21,924}\\\\\\.\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \quad =\large\boxed{\dfrac{1}{3,654}}$

2) First and Second

$\dfrac{3\ total\ prizes}{29\ total\ people}\times \dfrac{2\ remaining\ prizes}{28\ remaining\ people}=\dfrac{6}{812}=\large\boxed{\dfrac{13}{406}}$

$3)\quad \dfrac{29!}{(29-10)!}=\large\boxed{72,684,900,288,000}$

$4)\quad _{10}C_3=\dfrac{10!}{3!(10-3)!}=\large\boxed{120}$

Solve y=x+8 for x<br> can some one help me with this problem

IRINA_888 [86]

You have to plug in a random y value and use algebra to solve for x. It is impossible to do without at least one point for y.

Solve open parentheses square root of 7 close parentheses to the 6 x power = 49x−6.

LUCKY_DIMON [66]

(sqrt7)^6x = 49x - 6

There is no easy way to solve this . Drawing a graph will give a good approximation.

Draw y = (sqrt7)66x

and y = 49x - 6 and see where they intersect

Ill draw it on desmos graphing tool and give you the link.

Provide a counterexample to the statement.

lilavasa [31]

Answer:

acute triangle, obtuse triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

The sums of interior angles of all triangles are 180°, but the triangles are only similar if their corresponding angles are congruent.

An acute triangle and an obtuse triangle both have angle sums of 180°, but can never be similar to one another.
