<u><em>Answer:</em></u>

The sales tax is 8%

<u><em>Explanation:</em></u>

<u>We are given that:</u>

The price of the rocket is $24 and the sales tax is $1.92

To get the percentage of the sales tax, all we have to do is divide the sales tax by the price of the rocket and then multiply the quotient by 100 (to convert the ratio to percentage)

<u>This is done as follows:</u>

% of sales tax = \frac{tax}{price}*100

% of sales tax = \frac{1.92}{24}*100 = 8%

Hope this helps :)

What is the equivalent fraction? Drag the answer into the box to match the decimal. 0.7¯ ​799​​79​​70100​​711​
Vesna [10]
The equivalent fraction for 0.7 is 70/100.
 
You know this because 0.7 is the same as 7/10.

7/10 is the same as 70/100 when we create 7 groups of 10 (numerator) and 10 groups of 10 (denominator).

Also, placing a zero to the right of any number on the right hand side of the decimal point will not change the value.

0.70 is 70/100

I need to figure out how many solutions does the system of equations below have.
Aleonysh [2.5K]

Answer:

The system has one solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the number of solutions of the system, we equal both equations for y.

If we have ax = b, in which both a and b are different of 0, we have one solution.

If both a and b are 0, we have infinite solutions.

If a is 0 and b is not, there are no solutions.

y=6/7x-8 and y=7/9x+10/9

So

\frac{6x}{7} - 8 = \frac{7x}{9} + \frac{10}{9}

\frac{6x}{7} - \frac{7x}{9} = \frac{10}{9} + 8

\frac{54x - 49x}{63} = \frac{10}{9} + \frac{72}{9}

\frac{5x}{63} = \frac{82}{9}

45x = 63*82

Both a and b are different of 0, so the system has one solution.

A picture has an area of 35cm and is 7cm long.An enlargement of the picture is made is 21cm long.Find the area of the enlargemen
marta [7]

Answer: The area of the enlargement is 315cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the picture has 35cm as the area and it has a length of 7cm  then we can find the width by dividing the area by the length.

w= 35/7

w =  5      

So in this care the width of the picture in 5cm.

Now is saying that the picture's length has been enlarge or been dilated to 21 cm. To get from 7cm to 21cm you will have to multiply  by 3.  

In this situation, we will have to multiply the original picture's width by 3 to find it enlargement.

w= 5*3 = 15  

The width is 15cm and the length is 21cm so multiply them to find the area.

A = 15 * 21

A = 315cm
