Tax=tax rate times cost of product
tax=17.50
cost of product=250
17.50=rate times 250
divide both sides by 250
17.50/250=rate
0.07=rate
percent means parts out of 100
0.07/1 times 100/100=7/100=7%
7%=rate

answer is 7% tax

If f(x) = 3x +9 x when f(x) = 30
den301095 [7]

Answer:

x=5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

When f(x)=30, we have 3x+9x=30.

Combining like terms on the right side, we have 12x=30.

Finally, dividing by 12 we get x=30/12.

We note that 30=6*5 and 12=6*2, so 30/12=5/2.

So, \boxed{x=5/2} and we're done!

A. Describe two ways to find product 4.2 (6+ 0.43)
weqwewe [10]

First method:

What we can do first is to distribute directly 4.2 to 6 and 0.43, that is:

4.2 (6 + 0.43)

= 4.2 * 6 + 4.2 * 0.43

= 25.2 + 1.806

= 27.006

 

Second method:

We can add the two numbers 6 and 0.43 then multiply with 4.2, that is:

4.2 (6 + 0.43)

= 4.2 (6.43)

= 27.006

 

What we see is the Distributive Property of multiplication which states that multiplying the sum of a number is similar to multiplying each number and then adding the products.
