Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 5.60 by 70 to find what percent of 70 it is:

5.60/70

= 0.08

So, this is 8% of 70

That means the sales tax rate was 8%

Divide. Write your answer as a fraction or mixed number in simplest form.<br><br> 10 • 3 3/4
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

37 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

before you multiply you fractions you would have to change the mixed number into a improper fraction and then multiply your fractions together. once that is dont you would multiply they numerator straight across and multiply the denominator straight across. once that is done your answer should come out as 150/4 but that is a improper fraction and you have to change it into a mixed number which would be 37 2/4 but that can be simplified by 2 and once you simplify it your final answer would come out to be 37 1/2.

A triangle has the following measurements: B=79 degrees a=5ft
11Alexandr11 [23.1K]
The law of cosines for this particular situation is b^2 = a^2 + c^2 - 2ac cosB.
Filling in what you know, you have b^2 = 25 + 49 - [2(5)(7)-.1908], which simplifies to b^2 = 74 - 69.8092 which gives you a b^2 value of 4.1908, but you have to take the square root of that so you get a side value for b of 2.05.
