First you need to turn 9.5% into a decimal so you need to move the dot " . " over to the left two times 9.5 ---> .95 ---> .095
Now that you turned the % into a decimal all thats left to do is multiply .095 by $97.95
$97.95 * .095= $9.30525 or $9.31
So the tax is $91.31

Answer:

$9.30

Step-by-step explanation:

Given an amount of $97.95, if tax of 9.5% is charged, the amount of tax charged is expressed as 9.5% of $97.95, i.e;

9.5% × $97.95

= 9.5/100 × $97.95

= 0.095× $97.95

= $9.30

This shows that a tax of $9.30 was charged on $97.95

Advocard [28]

Answer:

A) 5c = 7.25

 (c being the singular lip balm price multiplied by 5)


B) You can draw a picture of 5 Lip balms, label each with (c) and then next to those drawings, put = 7.25. You could also draw 7 dollar bills and a quarter if you wanted!



C) 5c = 7.25

Divide each side by 5

c = 1.45


Each lip balm costs $1.45! Hope this helps! Please award brainliest if helped.

PLEASE HELP!! Compare & Contrast how Completing the Square is used to Convert a quadratic function to vertex form with how i
Likurg_2 [28]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a general quadratic formula given as ax²bx+c = 0

To generate the general formula to solve the quadratic equation, we can use the completing the square method as shown;

Step 1:

Bringing c to the other side

ax²+bx = -c

Dividing through by coefficient of x² which is 'a' will give:

x²+(b/a)x = -c/a

- Completing the square at the left hand side of the equation by adding the square of half the coefficient x i.e (b/2a)² and adding it to both sides of the equation we have:

x²+(b/a)x+(b/2a)² = -c/a+(b/2a)²

(x+b/2a)² = -c/a+(b/2a)²

(x+b/2a)² = -c/a + b²/4a²

- Taking the square root of both sides

√(x+b/2a)² = ±√-c/a + b²/√4a²

x+b/2a = ±√(-4ac+b²)/√4a²

x+b/2a =±√b²-4ac/2a

- Taking b/2a to the other side

x = -b/2a±√√b²-4ac/2a

Taking the LCM:

x = {-b±√b²-4ac}/2a

This gives the vertex form with how it is used to Solve a quadratic equation.

Solve x2 + 12x = –11 by completing the square. Which is the solution set of the equation?
Ann [662]
If you would like to solve the equation x^2 + 12 * x = -11, you can calculate this using the following steps:

x^2 + 12 * x = -11
<span>x^2 + 12 * x + 11 = 0
</span>(x + 1) * (x + 11) = 0
1. x = - 1
2. x = - 11

The correct result would be x = - 1, or x = - 11.
