When you buy an item on which sales tax is charged,the total cost is calculated by the formula T=P+s/100p where T is the total c

Gennadij [26K]

Given:

The formula for total cost is

$T=p+\dfrac{s}{100}p$

where, p is the price of item and s is the sales tax rate (as a percent).

You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14.

To find:

The the tax rate.

Solution:

You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14. So,

Total cost (T) = $14.77

Price of item (p) = $14

Putting T=14.77 and p=14 in given formula, we get

$14.77=14+\dfrac{s}{100}(14)$

$14.77-14=\dfrac{s}{100}(14)$

$0.77=\dfrac{s}{100}(14)$

Multiply both sides by 100.

$77=14s$

Divide both sides by 14.

$\dfrac{77}{14}=s$

$5.5=s$

Therefore, the tax rate is 5.5%.

2(3x+2)=2x-1+x solve

alina1380 [7]

First multiply and dstribute
a(b+c)=ab+ac
2(3x+2)=6x+4
6x+4=2x-1+x
add like terms
6x+4=3x-1
subtract 3x from both sides
3x+4=-1
subtract 4 from both sides
3x=-5
divide bothe sides by 3
x=-5/3

A strobe light is located at the center of a square dance room. the rotating light is 40 feet from each of the square walls and

Effectus [21]

The equation of the rotating light is an illustration of a secant function

The equation that represents the distance between the center of the circle and the light source is $d(t) = 40\sec(\frac{\pi}{3}t)$

<h3>How to determine the equation</h3>

The equation is a secant function represented by

$y =A\sec(Bt)$

Where:

A represents the amplitude

So, we have:

$A = 40$ --- the distance of the light from each square wall

B represents the period, and it is calculated as:

$B = \frac{2\pi}{T}$

The light completes its full rotation every 6 seconds.

This means that,

T = 6

So, we have:

$B = \frac{2\pi}{6}$

Simplify

$B = \frac{\pi}{3}$

Substitute values for A and B in $y =A\sec(Bt)$

$y = 40\sec(\frac{\pi}{3}t)$

Rewrite as a function

$d(t) = 40\sec(\frac{\pi}{3}t)$

Hence, the equation that represents the distance between the center of the circle and the light source is $d(t) = 40\sec(\frac{\pi}{3}t)$
