Answer:
Rita paid 47,500 dollars for the purchase price.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the sales tax on a new car is directly proportional to the purchase price of the car which means there is is something k such that
when you multiply it to the sales tax you get the purchase price.
Let's set this equation:
y=kx
Let y represent the purchase price and x the sales tax.
The second sentence tells us that (x,y)=(1500,30000).
We can plug this into y=kx to find the constant k. (Constant means it stays the same no matter what the input and output is).
So we have:
30000=k(1500)
300 =k(15) I went ahead and divided previous equation by 100.
Now divide both sides by 15:
300/15=k
Simplify:
20=k
So the equation to use the answer the question is
y=20x
where y is purchase price and x is sales tax.
So we want to know the purchase price on a car if the sales tax is 2375.
So replace x with 2375:
y=20(2375)
y=47500

(a²b³)⁴
If so, the exponent of an exponent is the product of the exponents, so we end up with:
a⁸b¹²</span>
50 plants total, 40% are vegetables
40% = 40/100 = 0.40
40% of 50 = 0.40*50 = 20
<h3>Answer: There are 20 vegetable plants</h3>
