154.35 - 10.37 = 143.98
143.98 - 27.83 = 116.15
10.37 = 116.15x
x = 0.0893

Change x to percent form to get 8.93% tax rate.

The ordered pair (a, b) gives the location of point P on the coordinate plane. The value of b is negative. The value of a is not

sergejj [24]

Answer:

Quadrant III ( C )

Quadrant IV ( D )

Step-by-step explanation:

Ordered pair ( a, b )

gives a point P on the coordinate plane

( a, b ) = ( x, y )

given : b = negative ( y-axis )

a ≠ 0 ( i.e. a = negative or positive ) ( x -axis )

Therefore point P is located in the : Third and fourth quadrants

What is the mass (in grams) of 8.11×1026 CO2 molecules?

Kobotan [32]

Answer:

<u>It</u><u> </u><u>is</u><u> </u><u>5</u><u>9</u><u>,</u><u>2</u><u>7</u><u>5</u><u>.</u><u>7</u><u>4</u><u> </u><u>grams</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

• Molecular mass of carbon dioxide

$= (12 \times 1) + (16 \times 2) \\ = 12 + 32 \\ = 44 \: g$

[ molar masses: C = 12 g, O = 16 g ]

• From avogadro's number, it says 1 mole contains 6.02 × 10^23 molecules or atoms.

But 1 mole is equivalent to its molar mass in terms of weight, therefore;

${ \sf{6.02 \times {10}^{23} \: molecules = 44 \: g }}\\ { \sf{8.11 \times {10}^{26} \: molecules =( \frac{8.11 \times {10}^{26} }{6.02 \times {10}^{23} } \times 44) \: g}} \\ \\ = { \boxed{ \boxed{ \bf{59275.7 \: \: g}}}}$
