Answer: These taxes are meant to do two things — raise money to pay for infrastructure and reflect some of the environmental costs of driving. Unlike most taxes, gas taxes are charged as a flat charge per liter, rather than as a percentage of the pump price.

Answer:

Every time you top off your vehicle at the pump, you're paying federal and state gas taxes that are included in the price of every gallon of gasoline. The federal tax, at 18.4 cents per gallon, is meant to help the federal government pay to build and fix things like highways and bridges.

A discount store takes 50% off of the retail price of a desk. For the store's holiday sale, it takes an additional 20% off of al
Serhud [2]

We are given the retail price of desk as $320. The store takes 50% off of the retail price of desk, then its price would become half of the original.

So its new price would be $160.

Now it says that it takes an additional 20% off of all furniture on store's holiday sale. So we need to cut off 20% from new price $160.

Holiday discount = 20% of $160 = 0.2 × 160 = 32.

Final selling price would be = $160 - $32 = $128.

So $128 is the final answer.

The quadratic function g(x) = ax^2 + bx + c has the complex roots (-5+9i) and (-5-9i). (you may assume that a = -1) what is the
gavmur [86]

Answer:

  • b = -10, c = -106

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>Given</h3>

<u>Quadratic function </u>

  • g(x) = ax^2 + bx + c

with the roots:

  • (-5+9i) and (-5-9i)
<h3>To find </h3>
  • b and c if a = -1
<h3>Solution</h3>

<u>As we know the sum of the roots is -b/a and the product of the roots is c/a. Substituting values and solving for b and c:</u>

  • (-5 + 9i) + (-5 - 9i) = -b/-1
  • -10 = b
  • b = -10

And

  • (-5 + 9i)(-5 - 9i) = c/-1
  • (-5)² - (9i)² = -c
  • 25 - 81(-1) = -c
  • - c = 25 + 81
  • - c = 106
  • c = -106

g(x) = -x² -10x - 106
