Answer:

$1.53

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales Tax Rate = 8.25%

Book Sales Cost = $18.50

Book Sales Tax = 8.25% x $18.50

= 8.25/100 x $18.50

= 0.0825 x $18.50

Book Sales Tax = $1.53

$1.53

8.25 x 18.50 = 152.625
152.625/100 = 1.52625

1.52625 rounded to the nearest cent is $1.53

Answer: $\boxed{y=\frac{4}{5}x-2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Perpendicular lines have slopes that are negative reciprocals, so as the slope of the given line is -5/4, the slope of the perpendicular line is 4/5.

Substituting into point-slope form,

$y-6=\frac{4}{5}(x-10)\\\\y-6=\frac{4}{5}x-8\\\\\boxed{y=\frac{4}{5}x-2}$
