Answer:

5%

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the tax, we take the price times the tax rate

2 = 40* rate

Divide each side by 40

2/40 =rate

.05 = rate

Changing to percent form

5% = rate

Write the equation in slope intercept form with a slope of 3/4 and passes through (-4,-5)
attashe74 [19]

Answer:Use the slope −2 and the point (−4,−5) to find the y-intercept.

y=mx+b

⇒−5=(−2×−4)+b

⇒−5=8+b

⇒b=−13

Write the equation in slope intercept form as:

y=mx+b

⇒y=(−2)x−13

Hence, the equation of the line is y=−2x−13.

Perform the addition.<br> (3x² + 3x - 5) + (-7x² + 9)
lakkis [162]
The question is asking us to find the sum. To do this, let's first write the original equation and then take it from there.
(3 x^{2}  + 3x - 5) + (-7 x^{2}  + 9)<span>
Use distributive property:
</span>3 x^{2}  + 3x - 5 - 7 x^{2}  + 9
Combine Like Terms:
&#10;-4 x^{2} +3x+4
Therefore, the answer to your question is -4x² + 3x + 4. Hope this helps and have a fantastic day!
