$4.06 in sales tax before tax for $58
7% of $42 = 2.94
7% of $58 = 4.06

First we should find the percentage of the tax for the items Mike bought :
\frac{42}{100} = \frac{2.94}{x} \\ x = \frac{2.94 \times 100}{42} = \frac{294}{42} = 7
the tax of the items are 7% of the price
so we find this percent for 58
\frac{58}{100} = \frac{x}{7} \\ x = \frac{7 \times 58}{100} = \frac{406}{100} = 4.06
so now you can add the tax to the price:
58 + 4.06 = 62.06
hope you understand it
good luck

Find the perimeter of a triangle with vertices A(2,5) B(2,-2) C(5,-2). Round your answer to the nearest tenth and show your work
valina [46]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Question

Find the perimeter of a triangle with vertices A(2,5) B(2,-2) C(5,-2). Round your answer to the nearest tenth and show your work.​

perimeter of a triangle = AB+AC+BC

Using the distance formula

AB = sqrt(-2-5)²+(2-2)²

AB = sqrt(-7)²

AB =sqrt(49)

AB =7

BC = sqrt(-2+2)²+(2-5)²

BC = sqrt(0+3²)

BC =sqrt(9)

BC =3

AC= sqrt(-2-5)²+(2-5)²

AC= sqrt(-7)²+3²

AC =sqrt(49+9)

AC =sqrt58

Perimeter = 10+sqrt58

(NEED DONE SOON) The measure of two supplementary angles are 4x - 24 and 4(2x - 3). <br> What is x
Zarrin [17]

Answer:

x = 12

Step-by-step explanation:

A pair of supplementary angles added together MUST equal 180. Therefore, as you are given two angles with the measures of (4x - 24) and 4(2x - 3), they must add together to equal 180. So, we get this equation:

(4x - 24) + 4(2x - 3) = 180

4x - 24 + 8x - 12 = 180 (we distributed 4(2x-3))

12x - 36 = 180

12x = 144

x = 12, -12

Therefore, x is 12 because -12 would mean that (4x-24) and 4(2x-3) are both negative, which is impossible for an angle measure.
