The absolute value of a number is the distance from point to the origin. Since Paula is located at a position of −12 feet relative to the ground, then the distance from point -12 on the number line to the origin is 12 (distance cannot be negative).

Thus, |-12|=12 and Paula is at a distance of 12 feet.

Answer: correct choice is C

Countering a cost $9.40 per sales tax. After sales tax, it cost $9.87. What is the sales tax rate?
Nady [450]
STEP 1:
find the sales tax (decimal form)

x= sales tax

Cost + (Cost * Sales Tax)= Total
plug in known numbers

$9.40 + ($9.40 * x)= $9.87

9.40 + 9.40x= 9.87
subtract 9.40 from both sides

9.40x= 0.47
divide both sides by 9.40

x= 0.47/9.40

x= 0.05 sales tax decimal form


STEP 2:
find sales tax percentage

= 0.05 * 100
or move decimal to the right two decimal places

= 5% sales tax percent form


ANSWER: The sales tax is 5% (or 0.05 in decimal form)

Hope this helps! :)
