Answer:
<em>The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
The procedure to add a percentage ratio p to a given quantity q is:
* Calculate the increase as i = p*q/100
* Add the increase to the original quantity to get the final quantity f=q + i
It's given the sales tax rate in New Mexico is p=5.125%. A pair of pants in New Mexico costs q=$30 before tax.
* The increase (tax) is i = (5.125*30)/100 = $1.54
* The price after tax is f = $30 + $1.54 = $31.54
The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54
Answer:y=-1/2
Step-by-step explanation:
125=(1/25)^(y-1)
5^3=(5^(-2))^(y-1)
5^3=5^(-2(y-1))
The same base eliminate each other we then have
3=-2(y-1)
3=-2y+2
Collect like terms
2y=2-3
2y=-1
Divide both sides by 2
2y/2=-1/2
y=-1/2
Well 10 molasses cookies and total number is 18 so the ratio is 10:18 then to simplify that it will be dividing by 2 so 5:9 is the answer or C
Answer:
f(x)⁻¹ = x³ + 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Find the inverse of f(x) = ∛(x - 2).
The first step is to let f(x) = y
y = ∛(x - 2)
Then make x the subject of the formula
y³ = [∛(x - 2)]³
y³ = x - 2
x = y³ + 2
∴ f(x)⁻¹ = y³ + 2
Replacing y with x we have.
f(x)⁻¹ = x³ + 2
Add 3/10 to 2/5 to factor it out
