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.

Find two positive consecutive integers whose product is 132.
iren2701 [21]
If x is the first integer, then x+1 is the second. x(x+1)=132 or x^2+x-132=0. This factors as (x-11)(x+12)=0. Thus either x=11 or x=-12 
<span>So either 11 and 12 or -12 and -11 will do.</span>

How do you write 5.6 as a mixed number as a decimal?
Mama L [17]
5.6 in a fraction is 5 and 6/10, or 5 3/5. To get the mixed fraction, multiply the whole number (to the left) by the denominator (bottom of fraction), and add to the numerator (top of fraction). So 5 × 5 = 25 + 3 = 28. So it'd be 28/5.

Find the tenth term in the following geometric sequence. 8, 4, 2, 1, . . .
Marrrta [24]

Answer:

  c)  0.0156

Step-by-step explanation:

The general term a[n] of a geometric sequence is given in terms of the first term a[1] and common ratio r as ...

  a[n] = a[1]r^(n-1)

The given sequence has an initial term of a[1]=8 and a common ratio of 4/8=1/2. Then the general term is ...

  a[n] = 8(1/2)^(n-1)

The 10th term is then ...

  a[10] = 8(1/2)^(10-1) = 8(1/2)^9 = 8/512

  a[10] = 0.015625 ≈ 0.0156
