Answer: $30.67

Step-by-step explanation:

First, you have to take off 25% of his total. That's the same as multiplying it by .75.

37.52 × 0.75 = $28.14

Now you have to add on the 9% sales tax. That's the same as multiplying by 109%, or 1.09.

28.14 × 1.09 = $30.67

Hope that helps!

Which technique is most appropriate to use to solve each equation? Drag the name of the technique into the box to match each equ

NemiM [27]

For the first equation, the answer is C) completing the square.
For the second equation, the answer is B) zero product property.

For the first equation, we can easily complete the square by finding half of b and squaring it; then we can take the square root of both sides and solve the equation.

For the second equation, since it is already factored, we use the zero product property to solve it.

Answer:

a) 3/5 < 4/5

b) In general if two fractions have the same denominator, then whichever fraction has the numerator closer to its denominator will be the largest fraction.

c) $\frac{7}{10} > \frac{9}{15}$ or $\frac{7}{10}$

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 3/5 < 4/5

Flip the sign and the placement of the fraction so 3/5 is less then 4/5.

b) In general if two fractions have the same denominator, then whichever fraction has the numerator closer to its denominator will be the largest fraction.

c) We need to change the denominators to a common denominator to compare the size of the two fractions:

$\frac{7}{10}$ × $\frac{3}{3}$ = $\frac{21}{30}$
