A pack of cinnamon-scented pencils sells for $5.00. What is the sales tax rate if the total cost of the pencils is $5.20?

1 answer:

3 0

Calculate the percentage increase,work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.

520-500 = 20
20÷500 =.04
.04 ×100= 4%

Damm [24]

Answer:

-58

Step-by-step explanation:

We are to find tfhe dot product of u=<-8,9> and v=<5,-2>

u*v = <-8,9>*<5,-2>

u*v = -8(5)+9(-2)

u*v = -40 - 18

u*v = -58

Hence the product of the vectors is -58
