The sales tax rate is 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount of sales tax = $49

Price of dining room set = $980

Sales tax rate = \frac{Amount\ of\ sales\ tax}{Price\ of\ dining\ room\ set}*100

Sales taxa rate = \frac{49}{980}*100

Sales\ tax\ rate=\frac{4900}{980}\\Sales\ tax\ rate=5\%

The sales tax rate is 5%.

DanielleElmas [232]

Answer:

B. The functions f(x) and g(x) are reflections over the y-axis.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the information given the table appears as;

x            f(x)=2^x              g(x)=0.5^x

2               4                            0.25

1                 2                           0.5

0                1                             1

-1                0.5                         2

-2               0.25                       4

Plotting the two graphs to view the trends;

In the graph of f(x)=2^x against x you notice a curve with increasing positive slope.

In the graph of g(x)=0.5^x against x you notice a curve with a negative slope that is increasing.

In combining both graphs you notice that f(x) and g(x) are reflections over the y-axis.

Correct answer is ;The functions f(x) and g(x) are reflections over the y-axis.

Ms. Lee wrote a test with 15 multiple choice short answer questions. The multiple choice questions x are worth 5 points and the
hram777 [196]

x + y = 15 and 5x + 10y = 100 are the system of equations that represent this situation

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Let "x" be the number of multiple choice questions

Let "y" be the number of short answer questions

Worth of 1 multiple choice questions = 5 points

Worth of 1 short answer question = 10 points

<em><u>Ms. Lee wrote a test with 15 multiple choice short answer questions</u></em>

Therefore,

number of multiple choice questions + number of short answer questions = 15

x + y = 15 -------- eqn 1

<em><u>The maximum number of points possible on the test is 100</u></em>

Therefore, we frame a equation as:

number of multiple choice questions x Worth of 1 multiple choice questions + number of short answer questions x Worth of 1 short answer question = 100

x \times 5 + y \times 10=100

5x + 10y = 100 ------- eqn 2

Thus eqn 1 and eqn 2 are the system of equations that represent this situation

There were 200 people who voted at the Town council meeting all these people 40% voted for a new basketball court in the park ho
galben [10]

Answer:

120 people voted against building the new basketball court.

Step-by-step explanation:

if you divide 200 by 100 then you know how many people equal 1 percent of the 200. knowing that for every 2 people they are equal to 1 percent. so if you do 100 -40 you get 60. the 100 represents the 100 percent and you subtract 40 because these are the people who are voting for the basketball court. The 60 represents the percent of people who are voting against building the basketball court. then you multiply 60 by 2 and you get 120.
