"A department store in your hometown charges 9.75% tax; the stores location in your cousins hometown only charges 7.75% tax. If

a shoppers pre-tax receipt is between $11.57 and $81.43, write and graph a compound inequality that describes the difference in taxes paid for the two locations (to the nearest cent)"
I just need a start on how to do this.
Tbh, I've never heard of a pre-tax reciept. We get taxed on things that we pay, but is that the same thing as a pre-tax?

Also, at which location is this tax receipt being paid at? My hometown or my cousins hometown? (both of which has two different tax percentages)

Let x be the cost and the pre-tax receipt is between $11.57 and $81.43, so

11.57≤ x ≤ 81.43

Let y be the difference in taxes then,

11.57*(9.75/100 - 7.75/100) ≤ y ≤ 81.43*(9.75/100 - 7.75/100)  

=11.57*(0.0975 - 0.0775) ≤ y ≤ 81.43*(0.0975 - 0.0775)  

= 11.57*0.020 ≤ y ≤ 81.43*0.020

= 0.2314 ≤ y ≤1.6286

To the nearest cent, it is

0.23≤ y ≤1.62

Please find attached the graph.

Find the length of the third side. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.<br> 6<br> 14
Romashka-Z-Leto [24]

Answer:

≈ 12.6

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides.

let x be the third side, then

x² + 6² = 14²

x² + 36 = 196 ( subtract 36 from both sides )

x² = 160 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{160} ≈ 12.6 ( to the nearest tenth )
