Okay! Assuming this only wants the tax that will be added to the total, multiply the decimal percent by the cost of the item.

7.5% = .075

14.80 * .075 = 1.11

1.11 of tax will be added onto the total cost.

The total cost would be 15.91, which you can get from adding 14.80 to 1.11 or by doing 14.80 * 1.075. Regardless, the answer to this question is 1.11.

The value of a rare baseball card A appreciated by 20 percent over a five year period; over the next five years, the value plumm

<h2>Answer:</h2>

<em><u>Percent value of A with respect to Percent value of B is,</u></em>

$30\%$

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

In the question,

Let us say the value of the Baseball card A and B initially is = 100x

So, for Baseball card A in first 5 years percent increase = 20%

So,

Value after 5 years = 100x + 20% of 100x = 120x

<u>After 5 more years,</u>

Percent decrease = 50%

So,

<u>Value at the end of 10 years = 120x - 50% of 120x = 60x</u>

Now,

For Baseball card B, Percent increase in 10 years = 100%

So,

<u>Value of card B = 100x + 100% of 100x = 200x</u>

So,

<em><u>Percent value of A with respect to Percent value of B is,</u></em>

$\frac{60x}{200x}\times 100=30\%$

Write the equation of a line in standard form that has x-intercept (P,0) and y-intercept (0,R).

ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

$Rx+Py=RP$

Step-by-step explanation:

The points on the straight line are (P, 0) and (0, R).

The slope would be

$m=\frac{R-0}{0-P}=-\frac{R}{P}$

And $b=R$ , because the y-intercept is at (0, R).

So, the equation of this line would be

$y=-\frac{R}{P} x+R$

Where we multiply the equation by $P$

$Py=-Rx+RP$

Therefore, the equation that represents this line is

$Rx+Py=RP$

<h2>So, the right answer is B.</h2>
