Hello!

Convert 5% to a decimal by dividing it by 100.

5 ÷ 100 = 0.05

Next, multiply the total amount of money by the tax.

60 × 0.05 = 3

ANSWER:

The sales tax is $3.00.

Answer:

a. Parallel

b. Not parallel

Step-by-step explanation:

Systems which have no solutions are parallel lines. These lines do not intersect and therefore have no solution. Remember, parallel lines have the same slope. Compare the slope in each equation when in y=mx+b format to see if they are parallel.

a. y= 2x + 3                                                  y-2x=-3 becomes y = 2x - 3

m = 2                                                            m= 2

The slopes are the same so these are parallel lines.

b. 3x + y = 2 becomes y= -3x + 2               y = 1/3 x + 1/2

m = -3                                                          m= 1/3

The slopes are different so this is not parallel.

Since -3 and 1/3 are the negative reciprocals of each other. These lines are actually perpendicular.

Answer: ŷ = 0.07X + 5.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following :

Number of citations 5 - 7.5 - 10 - 15 - 20

Outputs Residuals 3 - - 6 - - 10 - 5 - - 6

Using the online regression calculator :

Line of best fit is represented by the equation:

ŷ = 0.06897X + 5.2069

ŷ = 0.07X + 5.2

From the line equation:

y = mx + c

With 0.07 = slope of gradient(m)

Intercept (c) = 5.2 (point where the line of best fit intersect the y_axis

x and y are values of x and y respectively

The best batch size is 1053.

Since 5% have failed, this means 95% have passed the test.

95% = 95/100 = 0.95

We can set up an equation to answer this:
0.95x = 1000

Divide both sides by 0.95:
0.95x/0.95 = 1000/0.95
x = 1052.6 ≈ 1053
