The sale tax rate is 7.5%. What is the tax on a $14.80 purchase.

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 domain for f(x) and g(x) is the set of all real numbers. Let f(x) = 3x + 5 and g(x) = x2. Find g(x) − f(x).
kifflom [539]

Answer:

3x^2 + 8  

Step-by-step explanation:

Given functions,

f(x) = 3x + 8 ----(1)

g(x) = x^2 -----(2)

Since,

(fog)(x) =  f( g(x) )      ( Composition of functions )

=f(x^2)             ( From equation (2) )

=3x^2 + 8          ( From equation (1) )

Hence,

(fog)(x)=3x^2 + 8

Solve the equation using either addition or substitution. Show all your work
UkoKoshka [18]

Answer:

(x1, y1) = (1, 3)

(x2, y2) = (4, 12)

Step-by-step explanation:

y= x^2 - 4

y= 5x - 8

(substitute the value for y)

x^2 - 4 = 5x - 8

(solve the equation)

x = 1

x = 4

(substitute the values)

y = 5 × 1 - 8

y = 5 × 4 - 8

(solve the equations)

y = -3

y = 12

( the possible solutions are)

x1, y1 = 1, -3

x2, y2 = 4, 12

(check the solutions)

-3 = 1^2 - 4

-3 = 5 × 1 - 8

12 = 4^2 - 4

12 = 5 × 4 - 8

(simplify)

-3 = -3

-3 = -3

12 = 12

12 = 12

(the ordered pairs are the solutions)

Which sum is close to 1 0.4+1/2 ,7/8+1/4,4/5+2/3 explain
serg [7]
Presuming the question is "Which sum is closest to 1". 
First, you need to either convert all the fractions to decimals or all the decimals to fractions, then add each pair. 
0.4 + 1/2 = 0.9
7/8 + 1/4 = 1.125
4/5 + 2/3 = 1.466666...
The first one is different from 1 by 0.1. The second is different by 0.125. The third is different by 0.46666.... Therefore, the closest sum is the first, or 0.4 + 1/2

0.4 + 1/2
