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

Find the value of the variable and DF if D is between C and F if CD 4y -9, DF 2y-7, and CF 14.
Yuri [45]
CF = CD + DF (since D is simply a point on the line, and C to that point added onto F to that point is CF), so 4y-9+2y-7=14. Adding it up, we get 6y-16=14 and adding by 16 we get 30=6y. Dividing both sides by 6, we get y=5. Plugging that into DF, we get 10-7=DF=3

A 120-watt light bulb uses about 0.1 kilowatt of electricity per hour. If electricity costs $0.20 per kilowatt hour, how much do
saveliy_v [14]
There is no such thing as a "kilowatt per hour". If that's actually what the question says, then it's a defective question, and you should put it away before it makes you any more confused. A 120 watt light bulb uses exactly 0.12 kilowatt when it's turned on. In one hour, it uses (0.12 kilowatt) x (1 hour) = 0.12 kilowatt-hour of energy. If energy costs $0.20 per kilowatt-hour, then the cost is (0.12) x (0.20) = 2.4 cents. (0.024 dollar)
