Answer:

She paid 9% of sales tax

Step-by-step explanation:

The sale price of diamond = $375

Let x be percent of sales tax

So, amount of tax = x\% \times 375 = \frac{x}{100} \times 375 =3.75x

So, Amount including tax = 375+3.75x

We are given that Bethany paid $408.75 for a pair of diamond stud earrings.

So, 375+3.75x=408.75

3.75x=408.75-375

x=\frac{408.75-375}{3.75}

x=9

Hence She paid 9% of sales tax

Nine days. You can divide 108 by 36, to get how many times she has to read 36 pages, which is 3. Then you multiply that by 3, because she uses 3days for every 36 pages. 3x3=9

RUDIKE [14]
False.

There are 36 possible outcomes, corresponding to numbers 1-6 independently appearing on each of the dice. Only one of those outcomes is double-sixes, resulting in a sum of 12. The probability that the sum is 12 is 1/36.

In short, the 11 outcomes listed in your problem statement are not equally-likely.

Allisa [31]

Answer:

1) $38.40 2) $255. 3) $5.80 4) $3.12

Step-by-step explanation:

So you have to multiply the years by the amount of money you have. Then you multiply that by the percent and divide by 100. (For the last one: because its a month you have to make it a fraction so it was 8/12)
