A = P(1+r/12)^12t, where A = amount after two years, P = Initial amount = $1000, r =apr = 4.2% = 0.042, t = period = 2 years
Then,
A = 1000 (1+0.042/12)^12*2 = $1087.47
-18 - 6k = 1 + 3k
-6k - 3k = 1 + 18
-9k = 19
k = -19/9 or - 2 1/9
15/10 = 18-x/x is the ratio of the larger to the smaller triangle
Cross multiply:
15x = 10(18 - x)
15x = 180 - 10x
25x = 180
x = 7.2
Plug back in to check
15/10 = 1.5
18-7.2/7.2 = 10.8/7.2 = 1.5 :)
The answer is $1.28 sale tax
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the cost of the item times 0.05 to get the amount of the sales tax:
25.60 * 0.05 = $1.28 sales tax
