Answer:

The sales tax to be paid for the pair of shoes is $2.29.

Step-by-step explanation:

If the price of a pair of shoes is $45.90, and the sales tax rate for it is of 5%, in order to know the sales tax to be paid we have to do the following calculation:

(45.90 x 5) / 100 = X

229.5 / 100 = X

2.295 = X

So, as we can see, the sales tax to be paid is $2.29

Multiply the price by the 5% by turning the percent into a decimal.
5% = 0.05
45.90 x 0.05 = $2.295
Which can be rounded to 2.30 if needed.

When an exponential function is given as 
f(x)=ab^x, and
knowing that b^0=1, that means that
f(0)=ab^0=a  value of function when x=0, or the initial value.
In the case of
f(x)=20.b^x, f(0)=20.b^0 = 20  (initial value)

If b=1.2, then the hourly growth rate is (1.2-1)=0.2=20%.
If b=1.85, then the hourly growth rate is (1.85-1)=0.85=85%.

Josiah bought 22 chicken wings for $26.40. How much would it cost for 9 wings?
cricket20 [7]

Answer:

it would cost $10.8 for 9 chicken wings.

Step-by-step explanation:

Cost of 22 chicken wings = $26.40

we have to find first, cost of 1 chicken wings

For that we divide both side by 22

cost of 22/22 chicken wings = $26.40/22 = 1.2

Thus, cost of 1 chicken wings = $1.2

to fins cost of 9 chicken wings

we multiply both sides by 9

cost of 1*9 chicken wings = $1.2*9

cost of 9 chicken wings = $10.8

Thus, it would cost $10.8 for 9 chicken wings.
