There were fifty two pies at the start of the bakesale. If you work backwards, the original number of pies was subtracted by four, divided by two, and then subtracted by five. If you started with nineteen and then undid all of that, you get 52

Lisa buys a television for $4185. if the sales tax is $292.95. what percent is sales tax?
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

Sales tax = 7%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the percent of sales tax.

We have been given that Lisa buys a television for $4185. The sales tax is $292.95.

We need to figure out x such that x percent of 4185 equals to 292.95. Let us represent this information in an equation.

\frac{x}{100}*4185=292.95

Let us multiply both sides of equation by 100.

100*\frac{x}{100}*4185=100*292.95

x*4185=29295

x=\frac{29295}{4185}

x=7

Therefore, sales tax is 7%.

Let us cross check our answer by calculating 7% of 4185.

7\%\text{ of } 4185=\frac{7}{100}\times 4185

7\%\text{ of } 4185=0.07\times 4185

7\%\text{ of } 4185=292.95

We can see that 7% of 4185 is 292.95. Hence, sales tax is 7%.

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

Alex finally understands how Bob was trying to trick him into winning the bet because of how he puts in the condition for probability being less than 10%. Whichever way the outcome of the coin toss turns out to be, it will be in Bob's favor and Alex will lose the bet. If the coin is flipped 3 times, the probability of having heads exactly twice is \frac{4}{9}

Complete the recursive formula of the arithmetic sequence -3, -1, 1, 3,...
Strike441 [17]

Given:

The given arithmetic sequence is:

-3,-1,1,3,...

To find:

The recursive formula of the given arithmetic sequence.

Solution:

We have,

-3,-1,1,3,...

Here, the first term is -3. So, b(1)=-3.

The common difference is:

d=-1-(-3)

d=-1+3

d=2

The recursive formula of an arithmetic sequence is:

b(n)=b(n-1)+d

Where, d is the common difference.

Putting d=2, we get

b(n)=b(n-1)+2

Therefore, the recursive formula of the given arithmetic sequence is b(n)=b(n-1)+2, where b(1)=-3.
