You need to divide the amount by the tax.

32 ÷ 1.92 ≈ 16.67

SO,

that sales tax rate is ABOUT 16.67%

Hope I helped ya!!

Divide.
32/1.92=~16.67
The tax is roughly 16.67%

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplify left and right parts separately.

$\left(1+\dfrac{1}{\tan^2A}\right)\left(1+\dfrac{1}{\cot ^2A}\right)\\ \\=\left(1+\dfrac{1}{\frac{\sin^2A}{\cos^2A}}\right)\left(1+\dfrac{1}{\frac{\cos^2A}{\sin^2A}}\right)\\ \\=\left(1+\dfrac{\cos^2A}{\sin^2A}\right)\left(1+\dfrac{\sin^2A}{\cos^2A}\right)\\ \\=\dfrac{\sin^2A+\cos^2A}{\sin^2A}\cdot \dfrac{\cos^2A+\sin^A}{\cos^2A}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{\sin^2A}\cdot \dfrac{1}{\cos^2A}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{\sin^2A\cos^2A}$

<u>Right part:</u>

$\dfrac{1}{\sin^2A-\sin^4A}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{\sin^2A(1-\sin^2A)}\\ \\=\dfrac{1}{\sin^2A\cos^2A}$

Since simplified left and right parts are the same, then the equality is true.

Which equation represents y = −x2 + 6x + 7 in vertex form? y = −(x + 3)2 + 4 y = −(x − 3)2 + 10 y = −(x + 3)2 + 2 y = −(x − 3)2

Colt1911 [192]

$\text{The vertex form:}\ y=a(x-h)^2+k\\\\f(x)=ax^2+bx+c\to h=\dfrac{-b}{2a},\ k=f(h)\\\\\text{We have}\ y=-x^2+6x+7\to f(x)=-x^2+6x+7\\\\a=-1,\ b=6,\ c=7\\\\h=\dfrac{-6}{2(-1)}=\dfrac{-6}{-2}=3\\\\k=f(3)=-3^2+6(3)+7=-9+18+7=16\\\\Answer:\ \boxed{y=-(x-3)^2+16}$
