Given:
The formula for total cost is
where, p is the price of item and s is the sales tax rate (as a percent).
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14.
To find:
The the tax rate.
Solution:
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14. So,
Total cost (T) = $14.77
Price of item (p) = $14
Putting T=14.77 and p=14 in given formula, we get
Multiply both sides by 100.
Divide both sides by 14.
Therefore, the tax rate is 5.5%.
The <em>correct answer</em> is:
A) A tangent is never a secant.
Explanation:
A tangent is a line that touches a circle in exactly one point. A secant is a line that touches a circle in two different points.
Since a tangent only touches once and a secant touches twice, there is no way a tangent can be a secant.
Answer:
80
Step-by-step explanation:
the answer is A
you put 200 in the bank account. then wrote a check (taking out) for 20 and 30. then deposited (put in) 40
x + y = 4,000
0.1x + 0.04y = 352
Product A represents x and product B represents y. The first equation is the total number of items the store owner buys. The second equation is cost per item for both products. The above system of equations can be used to determine how much product A and product B the store owner bought.
