Given:
Price paid including tax: $37.48
sales tax = 5%

This means that $37.48 is equivalent to 105%

To get the value of the 100% or its original price, we divide the price paid by its percentage rate

$37.48 ÷ 1.05 = $35.70 value of the original price

$35.70 * 5% =  $1.78  value of sales tax
$35.70 + 1.78 = $37.48

Find the increasing functions. Then arrange the increasing functions in order from least to greatest rate of change. (not all of
Aleksandr [31]

Answer:

to a function is increasing we have to find the slope of the function

the higher the slope the faster the growth

Step-by-step explanation:

  • slope = 5/2. which is 2.5
  • slope 2 = -1/2 which is -0.5
  • slope 3 = 3/2 which is 1.5
  • slope 4 = 1/2 which is 0.5
  • slope 5= 4/3 which is 1.33
  • slope 6 = 3/4 which is 0.75

so the function in increasing order

y= -1/2x + 1/2

y= 1/2x - 2

y=3/4x - 10

y=4/3x -7/3

y=3/2x-11/2

y=5/2x +10

Find the radius of a circle using the Pythagorean theorem, given that the center is at (1, 5) and the point (5, 1) lies on the c
Assoli18 [71]

Given :

Center of circle, C = ( 1 , 5 )

Point on circle, P = ( 5 , 1 )

To Find :

The radius of a circle.

Solution :

We know, radius of circle is the distance between center and point of circle.

Distance between two points A(p,q) and B(r,s) is given by :

D = \sqrt{(p-r)^2+(q-s)^2}

So, distance between the points (1, 5) and (5, 1) is :

D = \sqrt{(1-5)^2+(5-1)^2}\\\\D = 5.66 \ units

Therefore, radius of circle is 5.66 units.

Hence, this is the required solution.
