The tax is 8.5%.
To find the tax on an item, multiply 8.5% by the price of the item.

t-shirt:
8.5% of $12.99 = 8.5% * $12.99 = 0.085 * $12.99 = $1.10
The tax on the t-shirt is $1.10

pair of jeans:
8.5% of $39.99 = 8.5% * $39.99 = 0.085 * $39.99 = $3.40
The tax on the jeans is $3.40

The difference in the amount of tax is

$3.40 - $1.10 = $2.30

Answer: $2.30

The formula v=√64h can be used to find the velocity v in feet per second of an object that has fallen h feet. Find the velocity
zhuklara [117]

Answer:

  B)  43.82 feet/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Fill in the number and evaluate:

  v = √(64×30) = √1920 ≈ 43.82 . . . . ft/s

_____

Of course, √(64h) can be simplified to 8√h. You know that √30 lies between 5 and 6, so the velocity lies between 8·5 = 40 and 8·6 = 48. There is only one answer choice in that range.

Whoever helps me is my saviour! I need this in by tomorrow!
Alenkasestr [34]

Answer:

1) \frac{7}{8}+\frac{2}{5}=\frac{7\times5+2\times8}{40}=\frac{35+16}{40}=\frac{51}{40}.

2) 2\frac{1}{3}\times \frac{1}{4}=\frac{7}{3}\times\frac{1}{4}=\frac{7}{12}

hence, answer is 7/12.

3) We have to divide £72 in the ratio 2:3:1

the total of the ratio is=2+3+1=6

so on dividing 72 into 6 parts we have 72/6=12

First '2' parts=2×12=24

second '3' part=3×12=36

last '1' part=1×12=12

so dividing £72 in the ratio 2:3:1 is: £24,£36 and £12

4) 39 people out of 65 have blonde hair.

Number of people who do not have blonde hair=65-39=26

percentage people who do not have blonde hair is given by:

=\frac{26}{65}\times100\\ \\=40%

Hence, percentage people who do not have blonde hair is 40%

5) 20% of 90= (20/100)×90

                       =18

Hence, 20% of 90 is 18.

6) Factorise

  2x^2+18x^3=2x^2(1+9x)\\\\2x^2+18x^3=18x^2(x+\frac{1}{9})

7) Expand

(y-8)(y-6)=y(y-8)-6(y-8)=y^2-8y-6y+48\\\\(y-8)(y-6)=y^2-14y+48

8)

x^2+4x+3=x^2+x+3x+3=x(x+1)+3(x+1)=(x+3)(x+1).

9)

y^{0}=1

10)

0.0342=3.42\times10^{-2}

11) x= -4 y=3

and z=4 x-y^3

z=4×(-4)-3^3

z= -43

12) y+2x=x-2\\\\2x-x=-y-2\\\\x=-y-2

13) 8-7x=22\\\\7x=8-22\\\\7x=-14\\\\x=-2

Hence x= -2

14) 5,10,15,20,....a_{1}=5=5\times1 , a_{2}=10=5\times2 , a_{3}=15=5\times3,........,a_{n}=5n=5\timesn

Hence,  nth term is 5n.

15) (63×128)/32.9=245.106.

16) 938×21=19698.
