Answer:

$74.50

w = watch before tax

79.34 = price after tax

.065 = tax rate

79.34 = 1.065w (tax rate + 1 item) * w

/1.065 /1.065

74.50 = w

Check:

74.50 + 4.84 = 79.34

Oxana [17]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{(f-g)(x)==3x^5-2x^4-x^2+x-21}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)\\\\\text{We have}\\\\f(x)=3x^5+6x^2-5\\\\g(x)=2x^4+7x^2-x+16\\\\\text{substitute:}\\\\(f-g)(x)=(3x^5+6x^2-5)-(2x^4+7x^2-x+16)\\\\=3x^5+6x^2-5-2x^4-7x^2+x-16\\\\\text{combine like terms}\\\\=3x^5-2x^4+(6x^2-7x^2)+x+(-5-16)\\\\=3x^5-2x^4-x^2+x-21$

Question:

The circumference of a clock is 22 inches. What is the radius of the clock?

Answer:

Radius = 3.5 inches

Solution:

Shape of the clock is circle.

Circumference of the circle = 2πr

Circumference of a clock = 22 inches

$\Rightarrow2\pi r=22$

$$\Rightarrow2\times\frac{22}{7}\times r=22$

$$\Rightarrow\frac{44}{7}\times r=22$

$$\Rightarrow r=22\times \frac{7}{44}$

$$\Rightarrow r=\frac{7}{2}$

⇒ r = 3.5 inches

Hence the radius of the clock is 3.5 inches.
