Using proportions, it is found that the federal tax rate is of 10%.

<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>

A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.

The tax rate is the <u>proportion that $17.50 is of $175</u>, hence:

r = 17.50/175 = 0.1 = 10%.

The federal tax rate is of 10%.

Video Store A charges a $15.00 account
stepan [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

video store A : 15 + 1.75m

video store B : 7.5 + 2.25m

15 + 1.75m = 7.5 + 2.25m

15 - 7.5 = 2.25m - 1.75m

7.5 = 0.50m

7.5 / 0.50 = m

15 = m <=== there would have to be 15 movie rentals to make them equal

check...

15 + 1.75m                      7.50 + 2.25m

15 + 1.75(15) =                 7.50 + 2.25(15) =

41.25                               41.25

yep...it checks out

Describe how you regroup whenyou find 64+43
Mariana [72]
You regroup because the 4 in 64 plus the 3 in 43 equals 7, then you move onto the tens place, and 60 plus 40 equals 100, so that is how. Your answer is 107.
