Answer: $48
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we are told that in Michigan, the sales tax rate is 6% and that an item costs $50.88 including tax.
Let the cost of the item before tax be x. This means that x plus 6% of x equals to $50.88. This can be mathematically expressed as:
x + (6% of x) = $50.88
x + (6/100 × x) = $50.88
x + (0.06 × x) = $50.88
x + 0.06x = $50.88
1.06x = $50.88
When then divide by the coefficient of x
1.06x/1.06 = #50.88/1.06
x = $48
The price before the tax is $48
16/3 is rational simply because it is a fraction made up of whole numbers.
Irrational numbers cannot be expressed as fractions made up of whole numbers.
You want to find R. From angle R, you know the side lengths for opposite and hypotenuse. According to SohCahToa, that is sine. Sin (x) = Opposite / Hypotenuse = 2.5 / 5 = 0.5
Sine(x)=.5. To get x by itself divide both by the inverse of sine.
Descares Theorem says that the number of roots of a polynomial is equal to its highest exponent, and the roots could be real and/or imaginary (complex).
However is their is one complex root (a + i.b), it's conjugate is also
a root (a-i.b).
In the equation x⁴ - 4x³ - 2x² + 12x + 9 = 0, we have already 3 roots, then the 4rth cannot be a complex one since we don't have a fifth for its conjugate.
