Answer:

the sales tax percent is therefore: 7.75%

Step-by-step explanation:

The sales tax she paid is $69.75, for a sofa whose sale price is $899.99.

Since $69.75 is the unknown (x) percent of $899.99, then we write this statement in math terms as:

69.75 = x * 899.99

solving for x we get:

x = 69.75 / 899.99

x = 0.0775

this is the decimal form of the percent, and in order to write it as percent, we multiply it by 100:

the sales tax percent is therefore: 7.75%

Keith_Richards [23]

In one full rotation/revolution, a point on the edge travels a distance equal to the circumference of the gyroscope, or 2<em>π</em> (18 cm) = 36<em>π</em> cm. Convert the angular speed, 36<em>π</em> cm/rev, to linear speed:

(36<em>π</em> cm/rev) • (35 rev/min) = 1260<em>π</em> cm/min ≈ 3958 cm/min
