Answer:

7%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the difference.

64.19 - 59.99 = 4.20

Divide the difference by the cost of the item originally:

4.20 / 59.99 = about .07

Change this number to a percentage by moving the decimal to the right two spaces, so that would be 7%.

The sales tax in the area is 7%.

Subtract 59.99 from 64.19.

64.19 - 59.99 = 4.20

<u>The tax she paid was $4.20, so now we need to find the percentage.</u>

Divide 4.20 by 59.99.

4.20 ÷ 59.99 = 0.07

Multiply 0.07 by 100 to find the percentage.

0.07 × 100 = 7

<u>The sales tax in the area was 7%.</u>

Which is true regarding the system of equations?<br><br> x minus 4 y = 1. 5 x minus 20 y = 4.
goldfiish [28.3K]

Answer:

No solution

Step-by-step explanation:

x - 4y = 1 --> (1)

5x - 20y = 4 --> (2)

y = (¼)x - ¼ --> (1)

y = (¼)x - ⅕ --> (2)

Since these are 2 parallel lines with different y-intercepts, they will never meet

Lilian says that 25% of a number will always be less than 75% of any other number. Complete one inequality to support Lillian's
rjkz [21]
She is incorrect cause if we take the number 20 and take 25% of it it equals 5 so now 20 is only 15. They if we take 75% away from 20 is equals 15 so then we only have 5 from 20 left. Therefore she’s incorrect because 75% leaves 5/20 and 25% leaves 15/20. Hope that makes sense.

Find an upper limit for the zeroes 2x^4 -7x^3 + 4x^2 + 7x - 6 = 0
erik [133]

<u>Answer-</u>

2 is the upper limit for the zeros.

<u>Solution-</u>

The given function f(x) is,

2x^4 -7x^3 + 4x^2 + 7x - 6 = 0

For calculating the zeros,

\Rightarrow f(x)=0

\Rightarrow 2x^4 -7x^3 + 4x^2 + 7x - 6 = 0

\Rightarrow 2x^4-4x^3-3x^3+6x^2-2x^2+ 4x+3x-6=0

\Rightarrow 2x^3(x-2)-3x^2(x-2)-2x(x-2)+3(x-2)=0

\Rightarrow (x-2)(2x^3-3x^2-2x+3)=0

\Rightarrow (x-2)(x^2(2x-3)-1(2x-3))=0

\Rightarrow (x-2)(x^2-1)(2x-3)=0

\Rightarrow (x-2)(x+1)(x-1)(2x-3)=0

\Rightarrow x-2=0,\ x+1=0,\ x-1=0,\ 2x-3=0

\Rightarrow x=2,\ x=-1,\ x=1,\ x=\frac{3}{2}

From all the 4 roots, it can be obtained that 2 is the greatest zero.
