STEP 1:
find the sales tax (decimal form)
x= sales tax
Cost + (Cost * Sales Tax)= Total
plug in known numbers
$9.40 + ($9.40 * x)= $9.87
9.40 + 9.40x= 9.87
subtract 9.40 from both sides
9.40x= 0.47
divide both sides by 9.40
x= 0.47/9.40
x= 0.05 sales tax decimal form
STEP 2:
find sales tax percentage
= 0.05 * 100
or move decimal to the right two decimal places
= 5% sales tax percent form
ANSWER: The sales tax is 5% (or 0.05 in decimal form)
Hope this helps! :)
1) x=-3. The missing angle is 71 degrees
2) x=45. The missing angles are 90 and 45 degrees.
3) x=40. The missing angles are 40 and 100 degrees
Answer:
$110 and $30
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this, we need to know the total share which is,
Then, you need to know the fraction of the share over the total, such that
So if to find how much that'll be of the $180 for the largest and smallest share,
Largest:
Smallest:
A(n) = –3 • 2⁽ⁿ⁻¹⁾
for n = 1 , A₁ = -3.(2)⁰ = -3
for n = 2 , A₂ = -3.(2)¹ = -6
for n = 3 , A₃ = -3.(2)² = -12
for n = 4 , A₄ = -3.(2)³ = -24
...........................................
for n = 8 , A₈ = -3.(2)⁷ = -384
