Hmm... well, here ya go.

1.50 ÷ 0.05 = 30
So, the total is $30
As for the tax rate, including the total, it would be $31.50.

Hope I helped.

1.50\0.05=30
plus tax equals $31.50

It would be easier if you use a website with a graph! There is a website called "desmos" and if you search up desmos graphing calculator you will find it. Type in the points in the website, and it would add in the points for you.

but here is a piece of key information:

Make $\frac{3}{4}$ into a decimal. That would be 0.75.

Since it says "of the way from", count the boxes in the graph from each point.

Hope this helps! ^.^

Simplify: [5×(25)^n+1 - 25 × (5)^2n]/[5×(5)^2n+3 - (25)^n+1]

Alekssandra [29.7K]

$\green{\large\underline{\sf{Solution-}}}$

<u>Given expression is </u>

$\rm :\longmapsto\:\dfrac{5 \times {25}^{n + 1} - 25 \times {5}^{2n} }{5 \times {5}^{2n + 3} - {25}^{n + 1} }$

can be rewritten as

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{5 \times { {(5}^{2} )}^{n + 1} - {5}^{2} \times {5}^{2n} }{5 \times {5}^{2n + 3} - {( {5}^{2} )}^{n + 1} }$

We know,

$\purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\boxed{\tt{ {( {x}^{m} )}^{n} \: = \: {x}^{mn}}}} \\$

And

$\purple{\rm :\longmapsto\:\boxed{\tt{ \: \: {x}^{m} \times {x}^{n} = {x}^{m + n} \: }}} \\$

So, using this identity, we

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{5 \times {5}^{2n + 2} - {5}^{2n + 2} }{{5}^{2n + 3 + 1} - {5}^{2n + 2} }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{{5}^{2n + 2 + 1} - {5}^{2n + 2} }{{5}^{2n + 4} - {5}^{2n + 2} }$

can be further rewritten as

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{{5}^{2n + 2 + 1} - {5}^{2n + 2} }{{5}^{2n + 2 + 2} - {5}^{2n + 2} }$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{ {5}^{2n + 2} (5 - 1)}{ {5}^{2n + 2} ( {5}^{2} - 1)}$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{4}{25 - 1}$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{4}{24}$

$\rm \: = \: \dfrac{1}{6}$

<u>Hence, </u>

$\rm :\longmapsto\:\boxed{\tt{ \dfrac{5 \times {25}^{n + 1} - 25 \times {5}^{2n} }{5 \times {5}^{2n + 3} - {25}^{n + 1} } = \frac{1}{6} }}$
