Answer:

67%

$33.92

Step-by-step explanation:

So a few things happen.  Starting at $50.88 there is a markup, so it is now y dollars.  Then a tax of 6.25% is applied to this y, which gets $90.10.  So we want to work backwards to find y.

First, we want to find a number that when it gets a tax of 6.25%, or .0625, we get 90.10.  So it's a pretty simple algebra problem.

90.1 = y * 1.0625

90.1/1.0625 = y

84.8 = y

So now we know, before tax the store charges $84.80.  if you don't get how I did something let me know.

Now, we want to know the percent increase from $50.88 to $84.80.  We know it is an increase of $33.92.  Well, we can use that.  33.92 is what percent of 50.88.  or an algebra way of writing it is 50.88x = 33.92 So let's solve that real quick.

50.88x = 33.92

x = 33.92/50.88

x = 2/3

So now, in conclusion, startign with a price of $50.88, the store marks it up by 2/3, which is 67% more or less, and then there is a 6.25% sales tax

The graph shows how the mass of copper
Alex777 [14]

Answer: 8 1/4g/cm³

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the graph :

The rate of change in the mass of copper with respect to volume :

To obtain this, we find the slope or gradient of the graph:

Gradient = Δy / Δx = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

Drawing a right angled triangle on the anybpart of the line of best fit:

y2 = 40 ; x2 = 4.75 ; y1 = 16 ; x1 = 2

(y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)

= (40 -16) / (4.75 - 2)

= 24 / 2.75

= 2400/275

= 8.727 g/cm^3

Due to unit and graph scale,, the slope is closest to 8 1/4g/cm³

Can someone help solve for X
Morgarella [4.7K]

Answer:

x = 2sqrt(5)

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve

The legs are x and 8/2 =4

and the hypotenuse is 6

a^2 + b^2 = c^2

x^2 +4^2 = 6^2

x^2 +16 = 36

Subtract 16 from each side

x^2 +16-16=36-16

x^2 = 20

Take the square root of each side

sqrt(x^2) = sqrt(20)

x = sqrt(4*5)

x = sqrt(4) sqrt(5)

x = 2sqrt(5)
