Hello there! We are solving for the tax rate, so let's start off by subtracting both prices. 4.32 - 4.00 is 0.32. That's a 32 cent difference in the price. Now, let's divide that number by the original price to find the percentage. 0.32/4 is 0.08. Multiply that number by 100 and that is 8%. There. The sales tax rate is 8%.

My name is Ann [436]

Answer:

T-intercept = 67

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

T = 44m + 67

Required

Calculate and interpret the t-intercept

To calculate the t-intercept, we simply set the number of minutes (m) to 0

i.e. substitute 0 for m in T = 44m + 67

T = 44 * 0 + 67

T = 0 + 67

T = 67

Hence, the T-intercept is 67

The interpretation is that the initial temperature when the oven is turned on is 67 degrees

Scarlet is leaning a 12 foot ladder. When you lean a 12 foot ladder, it is s slanted so we will make 12 our slanted side or hypotenuse. It makes a 80 degree angle after contact with the ground so it will be on the lowest angle on the right. We are asked to find the vertical side or how high up the ground is. We are asked to a angle that is opposite of the given angle which is x .. And we are also given the hypotenuse. We are going to use sin using our SOHCAHTOA

$\sin(theta) = \frac{opposite}{hypotunese}$
