We have been given that Mr. Luis wants to sell his house. The state he lives in charges a 3.5% sales tax on the sale of a house. The county charges a 3.9% sales tax, and the city charges a 2.2% sales tax.
We are asked to find the total tax, if Mr Luis sells his home for $122,500.
To find total tax, we will add all tax rates as they are being applied to same base.
Now we will find 9.6% of $122,500 to find total tax bill.
Therefore, the total tax bill of Mr. Luis would be 
.
You would be able to cut 144 pieces of wire from the spool because 270/1 7/8 (or 1.875) equals 144
Answer:
x<84
Step-by-step explanation:
First, write an inequality. We know it is not an equation because of the words "less than". Also, x and 8 are being added because of the word "and". Here's the inequality: x+8 < 72. Now, subtract 8 on both sides so x is isolated. Our simplified inequality looks like this: x < 84.
For this case we have that by definition, a direct variation is given by:
Where:
k: It is the constant of proportionality of the variables.
On the other hand, we have that the inverse variation is given by:
Where:
k: It is the constant of proportionality of the variables.
In this way, the correct option is: 
ANswer:
Option A
A. -(a+5)
Because the negative sign is outside the parenthesis, multiplying by -1 just removes the negative sign:
-(a+5) * -1 = a+5
B. -(-x+31)
Apply the distributive property:
-(-x+31) becomes (- -x +31) which simplifies to (x+31)
multiply that by -1 to get -x+31
C. -(4x+12)
Because the negative sign is outside the parenthesis, multiplying by -1 just removes the negative sign:
-(4x+12) * -1 = 4x+12
