Given:
The formula for total cost is

where, p is the price of item and s is the sales tax rate (as a percent).
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14.
To find:
The the tax rate.
Solution:
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14. So,
Total cost (T) = $14.77
Price of item (p) = $14
Putting T=14.77 and p=14 in given formula, we get



Multiply both sides by 100.

Divide both sides by 14.


Therefore, the tax rate is 5.5%.

Answer:
1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
(5 + 4 + 3 + 3) x 2 = 30
Multiplied by two because two marbles are being picked.
10/30 = 1/3
K^2-5k-50
(k-10)(k+5)
This is because k*k=k^2 (your first term), 5k-10k=-5k (your second term) and -10*5=-50 (your last term).
Distribute to check.
They should be the same since it’s congruent ??
