You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427
When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.
To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7
So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%
Answer:
y = 3/4 + 7
Step-by-step explanation:
you must put the equation into the form of y = mx + b
add 6x to both sides and put it in front of the 56
8y = 6x + 56
y must be by itself by x does not so we divide everything by 8
y = 6/8x + 7
we must simplify the fraction 6/8
y = 3/4x + 7
Answer:
The answer is mean
Step-by-step explanation:
The mean is the average cost of the socks, so finding the mean of both would give an average price to compare them to. :)
