Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales tax is the tax added to the cost of item being purchased by a consumer. It is also know as tax on consumption and is a percentage of the cost of the commodity being purchased.

Purchase before sales tax = $46.00

Purchased price after tax addition = $48.76

Therefore tax added = $48.76 - $46.00

= $2.76

Tax rate applied = $2.76/$46.00

= 0.06 or 6%

sales tax rate = 6%

Jalen inherited a collection of vintage comic books. An appraiser separated the comic

sladkih [1.3K]

Jalen has total 63 comic books.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Total value of comic books = $3135

Let,

Number of $45 comic books = x

Number of $65 comic books = y

According to given statement;

45x+65y=3135 Eqn 1

x=y+33 Eqn 2

Putting value of x from Eqn 2 in Eqn 1

$45(y+33)+65y=3135\\45y+1485+65y=3135\\110y=3135-1485\\110y=1650\\$

Dividing both sides by 110

$\frac{110y}{110}=\frac{1650}{110}\\y=15$

Putting y=15 in Eqn 2

$x=15+33\\x=48$

Total comic books = x+y

Total comic books = 48+15 = 63

Jalen has total 63 comic books.

What is the volume ,in cubic meter ,of a cylinder with a height of 3 neters and a base radius of 4 meters ,to the nearest theths

TEA [102]

Answer:

volume = 150.9m³

Step-by-step explanation:

in order to find the volume ,in cubic meter ,of a cylinder with a height of 3 meters and a base radius of 4 meters ,to the nearest theths place wee apply the formular for finding the volume of a cylinder which is πr²h

v = πr²h

given that

height = 3meters

radius = 4meters

volume=?

going by the formulae v= πr²h

v = π × (4)² × 3

v = π × 16 ×3

v= 48πm³

note the value of π = 22/7

v = 48 × 22/7

v = 1056/7

v= 150.87m³

therefore the volume of the cylinder to the nearest tenth place is 150.9m³
