To find the amount of money you pay for tax, you have to multiply the price of the product by the percentage of the tax, then divide it by 100. in this case, 76x5.6=425.6/100=4.256 which is $4.26 (to the nearest cent)

The given question is a quadratic equation and we can use several methods to get the solutions to this question. The solution to the equation are 3/4 and -5/6 and the greater of the two solutions is 3/4

<h3>Quadratic Equation</h3>

Quadratic equation are polynomials with a second degree as it's highest power.

An example of a quadratic equation is

y = ax^2 + bx + c

The given quadratic equation is 24x^2 + 2x = 15

Let's rearrange the equation

24x^2 + 2x = 15\\24x^2 + 2x - 15 = 0

This implies that

  • a = 24
  • b = 2
  • c = -15

The equation or formula of quadratic formula is given as

y = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}

We can substitute the values into the equation and solve

y = \frac{-b +- \sqrt{b^2 - 4ac} }{2a}\\y = \frac{-2 +- \sqrt{2^2 -4 * 24 * (-15)} }{2*24} \\y = \frac{-2+-\sqrt{4+1440} }{48} \\y = \frac{-2+-\sqrt{1444} }{48} \\y = \frac{-2+- 38}{48} \\y = \frac{-2+38}{48} \\y = \frac{3}{4}\\ \\or\\y = \frac{-2-38}{48} \\y = \frac{-40}{48} \\y = -\frac{5}{6}

From the calculations above, the solution to the equation are 3/4 and -5/6 and the greater of the two solutions is 3/4

Using SOH CAH TOA

Sin =opposite/hypotenuse

that means opposite=2

Hypotenuse=3

Cos=Adjacent/Hypotenuse

Using Pythagorean theorem

Hyp^2=Opp^2 +Adj^2

3^2 =2^2+adj^2

9=4+adj^2

9-4=adj^2

5=adj^2

Taking the square root of both sides

√5=adj

:: cos=√5/3

Which of these is true<br> a: 0.7 &gt; 3/5 <br> b: 0.7 &lt; 3/5 <br> c: 0.7 = 3/5
omeli [17]
The answer is A. When 0.7 is put into fraction form it turns into 7/10. Then change the denominator of 3/5 to 10 which makes it 6/10. 7/10 is higher than 6/10 so the answer is A.

Jesse has a storage container in the shape of a right rectangular prism. The volume of the container is 43.875 cubic meters, the
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

The height is 2.25 meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a right rectangular prism is the product of the length, width, and height. So it would be V=w*l*h.

Because you have been given the values of the volume, width, and length, you can plug in those values into the equation to find the height. It should look like this: 43.875=5 * 3.9 * h

Then you can divide both sides of the equation by 5 * 3.9.

So... 43.875/(5*3.9)=h

therefore h= 2.25.

hope this explanation makes sense!
