Answer:
the sales tax percent is therefore: 7.75%
Step-by-step explanation:
The sales tax she paid is $69.75, for a sofa whose sale price is $899.99.
Since $69.75 is the unknown (x) percent of $899.99, then we write this statement in math terms as:
69.75 = x * 899.99
solving for x we get:
x = 69.75 / 899.99
x = 0.0775
this is the decimal form of the percent, and in order to write it as percent, we multiply it by 100:
the sales tax percent is therefore: 7.75%
Answer:
467 000 000
Step-by-step explanation:
4.67e-8 is rewritten as 4.67 x 10^-8.
Negative -> decimal with lots of places, Positive -> big, big number
Move the decimal place right 8 times so you end up with a small decimal.
4.67 -> 467000000
The area of the trapezoid is 57.5 square inches.
If you draw out the description, you will see that your trapezoid can be divided into a rectangle that is 9 x 5 and an isosceles right triangle with a base of 5 and height of 5.
Just find the areas of both and add them together.
Rectangle:
5 x 9 = 45
Triangle:
0.5 x 5 x 5 = 12.5
45 + 12.5 = 57.5
A) |–3| = 3 and –|–4| = –4
It’s the only one that makes sense.
Hope that helps!
