Step-by-step explanation:

First solve 2^-4.

Use negative power rule: x^-a = 1/xa

⇒ 1/2^4

Simplify 2^4 to 16

Just evaluate the other options.

The first one is correct.

Bethany paid $408.75 for a pair of diamond stud earrings. The sale price was $375. What is the Percent of Sales Tax she paid for

9966 [12]

Answer:

She paid 9% of sales tax

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale price of diamond = $375

Let x be percent of sales tax

So, amount of tax = $x\% \times 375 = \frac{x}{100} \times 375 =3.75x$

So, Amount including tax = 375+3.75x

We are given that Bethany paid $408.75 for a pair of diamond stud earrings.

So, 375+3.75x=408.75

3.75x=408.75-375

$x=\frac{408.75-375}{3.75}$

x=9

Hence She paid 9% of sales tax
