Answer:

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 set of ratios could be used to determine if one triangle is a dilation of the other

Lisa [10]

Answer:

See explanation

$\frac{3.6}{3} = \frac{5.4}{4.5} = \frac{6}{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The two triangles are similar if the ratio of the corresponding sides are proportional.

The ratio of the corresponding sides are:

$\frac{3.6}{3} = 1.2$

$\frac{5.4}{4.5} = 1.2$

$\frac{6}{5} = 1.2$

The set of ratios which could be used to determine if one triangle is a dilation of the other is

$\frac{3.6}{3} = \frac{5.4}{4.5} = \frac{6}{5}$

If there are multiple correct options then check this one too.

$\frac{3}{3.6} = \frac{4.5}{5.4} = \frac{5}{6}$

Find the slope of the line that passes through (-49, 68) and (-43, 67).

Arte-miy333 [17]

Answer:

Slope = 67 - 68 / -43 + 49

= -1 / 6

= - 1/6
