Divide sales tax amount over the item's cost
23.1 / 330 = 0.07
Therefore the sales tax is 7%
1. the image is multiplied by the scale factor. if the scale factor is 2, the image is twice the size of the preimage. if the scale factor is ⅓, the image is one third the size. only a scale factor of 1 preserves congruency
And integer is a whole number, negative or positive, with no decimals or fractions.
A is true.
B is true.
A rational number is a number that doesn't have an infinite number of decimal.
C is true.
D is false.
<u>The answer is D</u>
1) name the variables:
- amount in account 1 "a"
- amount in account 2 "b"
2) trtanslate the statements into equations:
<span>- the
difference between account 1 and account 2 is $100.
=> a - b = 100
- if she uses 3/8 of
account 1 and 7/8 of account 2, Dawn will have a down payment of $2,000.
=> (3/8)a + (7/8)b = 2000
3) solve the system of equations
(1) a - b = 100
(2) (3/8)a + (7/8b) = 2000
Steps:
- multiply equation (1) by 7 and equaton (2) by 8
=>
(1) 7a - 7b = 700
(2) 3a + 7b = 16,000
- add the two equations
=>
7a + 3a - 7b + 7b = 700 + 16,000
- combine like terms:
10a = 16,700
- divide by 10:
a = 16,700 / 10 = 1670
- use equation (1) to find b:
a - b = 100 => b = a - 100 = 1670 - 100 = 1570
Answer: Dawn has $ 1670 in account 1 and
$ 1570 in account 2.
