Answer:
Total items = $39.90
Sales tax amount = $3.7905
Total cost = $43.691
The clerk's error is using 9.5 as sales tax amount instead of finding 9.5% of the total items
Step-by-step explanation:
Dress = $24.95
Skirt = $14.95
steps the clerk completed.
Step 1: 24.95 + 14.95 = 39.90
Step 2: 39.90 +9.5 = 49.40
Correct steps:
Total items = dress + skirt
= $24.95 + $14.95
= $39.90
Sales tax = 9.5%
Sales tax amount = 9.5% of total
= 9.5/100 × $39.90
= 0.095 × 39.90
= $3.7905
Total cost = Total + sales tax amount
= $39.90 + $3.7905
= $43.6905
To the nearest hundredth
= $43.691
Sales tax is the amount of money imposed by government on the sales of some items
Total cost is the cost of all items including sales tax
Simplify \frac{5}{3}x35x to \frac{5x}{3}35x
x-\frac{5x}{3}<3x−35x<3
2
Simplify x-\frac{5x}{3}x−35x to -\frac{2x}{3}−32x
-\frac{2x}{3}<3−32x<3
3
Multiply both sides by 33
-2x<3\times 3−2x<3×3
4
Simplify 3\times 33×3 to 99
-2x<9−2x<9
5
Divide both sides by -2−2
x>-\frac{9}{2}x>−29
The constant should be added to form a perfect square trinomial will be 1/4. Then the correct option is D.
<h3>What is a quadratic equation?</h3>
It's a polynomial with a value of zero. There exist polynomials of variable power 2, 1, and 0 terms. A quadratic equation is an equation with one statement in which the degree of the parameter is a maximum of 2.
The expression is x² + x.
Then the constant should be added to form a perfect square trinomial.
Then the constant will be
The square of the half of the coefficient of the variable x is to be added to make a perfect square.
Then the constant will be 1/4.
Then the perfect square will be
