Answer:

First find the amount of tax paid, by subtracting the total amount paid from the cost of the item:

530 - 500 = 30

Now divide the amount of tax paid by the cost of the item:

30 / 500 = 0.06

Multiply by 100:

0.06 * 100 = 6% tax

When building a house, the number of days required to build varies inversely with with the number of workers. One house was buil

Helga [31]

Let d represent number of days and n represent number of workers.

We have been given that when building a house, the number of days required to build varies inversely with with the number of workers.

We know that the equation $y=\frac{k}{x}$ represents the relation where y is inversely proportional to x and k is the constant of proportionality.

So our required equation would be $d=\frac{k}{n}$

Upon substituting our given values, we will get:

$19=\frac{k}{35}$

$k=19\cdot 35$

$k=665$

Since constant of proportionality is 665, so our equation would be $d=\frac{665}{n}$ .

To find the number of days it will take to build a similar house with 5 workers, we will substitute $n=5$ in our equation as:

$d=\frac{665}{5}$

$d=133$

Therefore, it will take 133 days for 5 workers to build a similar house.

The solution to -6+1/4w=-4

Svetllana [295]

So firstly, add both sides by 6: $\frac{1}{4}w=2$

Next, multiply both sides by 4, and your answer will be $w=8$

Describe the error in determining whether the lines are parallel, perpendicular, or neither.

Lina20 [59]

Step-by-step explanation:

The slopes of perpindicular lines must be negative reciprocals of each other -- while -4 and 4 are negative to each other, the negative recipricocal for -4 is 1/4 and -1/4 for 4.

The slopes of parallel lines must be the same, so these are not parallel.
