The sales tax rate is 5%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Sales tax for an item = $24.50

Cost of item before tax = $490

Sales tax rate = \frac{Sales\ tax}{Cost\ of\ item}*100\\

Sales\ tax\ rate=\frac{24.50}{490}*100\\\\Sales\ tax\ rate=\frac{2450}{490}\\\\Sales\ tax\ rate=5\%

The sales tax rate is 5%.

Find the value of c so that (x+2) is a factor of the polynomial p(x). p(x)=4x^3+cx^2+x+2
Wittaler [7]

Answer:

c = 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Use synthetic division here; it's the fastest approach.

Given that (x + 2) is a factor, take -2 and use this as the divisor in synthetic division:

-2     4         c                1           2

                  -8    (-2c+ 16)      (4c-34)

       ---------------------------------------------

         4    (c - 8)   (-2c + 17)     4c - 32

The remainder, 4c - 32, must equal zero if (x + 2) is a factor.

Then 4c - 32 = 0, and c = 8

I made 12 dog treats using 1 cup of peanut butter. If I want to make 36 dog treats, how much peanut butter will I need? Write a
MaRussiya [10]

Answer:

You will need 3 cups peanut butter to  make 36 dogs treats.

Peanut butter Cup  :  The dog treats made =  1: 12

Step-by-step explanation:

12 dog treats  = 1 cup  

So, by UNITARY METHOD

1 dog treat = (1/12) cup

So, 36 dog treats = 36 x (1/12) cup = 3 cups

So, you will need 3 cups peanut butter to  make 36 dogs treats.

If 1 cup = 12 Dog Treats

then 1 x 3 cup = 12 x 3 dog treats

or, 3 Cups = 36 dog treats

The ratio of the Peanut butter cup  :  The dog treats made =  1: 12
