Sales tax rate for the above sweater is charged at the rate of 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Sweater’s cost initially- 28$

Cost of Sweater after 30.24$

Sales tax rate deducted?

Analysing the above-provided details we conclude that an increase in the cost was probably due to the addition of sale tax.

Sales tax charged= Cost of the sweater after charging- initial cost

= 30.24$-28$

=2.24$

Percentage of sales tax charged= (sales tax charged/initial cost) *100

Substituting the values of the sales tax and initial cost in the above-provided equation-

= (2.24/28) *100

=8%

Hence the Sales tax charged at the sweater was 8%

Tony and Cleo are donating some of their books to a hospital. If Tony contributes half of his books and Cleo gives one third of
liraira [26]
Short Answer: Tony 40 Cleo 30
Givens

T = Tony
C = Cleo

Equations
1/2 T + 1/3 C = 30      (1)
2/5 T + 1/2 C = 31       (2)

Adjustments
Multiply  (1) by 3
Multiply (2) by 2

New Equations
3/2 T + C = 90      (1a)
<u>4/5 T + C = 62</u>      (2a) Subtract (2a) from (1a)
(3/2 - 4/5)T = 28                      the common multiple of 2 and 5 = 10. 
(15/10 - 8/10)T = 28
7/10 T = 28                              Multiply by 10
7T = 28*10
7T = 280  Divide by 7
T = 280/7 = 40

Put T = 40 into (1)
1/2 T + 1/3 C = 30
1/2 (40) + 1/3 C = 30
20 + 1/3 C = 30                      Subtract 20 from both sides.
1/3 C = 30 - 20
1/3 C = 10                              Multiply through by 3
C = 10 * 3
C = 30

Answer:
Cleo has 30 books.
Tony has 40 books.

Check
<em>Use Equation 2</em>
2/5 T + 1/2 C = 31
2/5*40 + 1/2 * 30 = ? 31
16 + 15 =?3`
31 = 31 They are equal.

2008 population of wyoming was counted as 532,668 people. what is a reasonable estimate of the population of wyoming?
Snezhnost [94]
The smaller is the rounding factor, the more accurate the estimation is

532668 rounded to the nearest ten is 532670
532668 rounded to the nearest hundred is 532700
532668 rounded to the nearest thousand is 533000
532668 rounded to the nearest ten thousand is 530000
532668 rounded to the nearest hundred thousand is 500000

We can use either 532700 or 533000 as a reasonable estimate because these values don't give much difference to the original value

Use the expression 5(6 + 4x) to answer the following: Part A: Describe the two factors in this expression. (4 points) Part B: Ho
Nikolay [14]

Answer:

Part A: The two factors are 6 and 4x. Part B: Question is confusing Part C: The coefficient of the variable is 4.

Step-by-step explanation:

Factors are what gets multiplied to give a product, therefore, 6 and 4x are the products as they are both being multiplied by 5. I don't understand what you are asking for part b. Part C, the coefficient is any number that is multiplied with the variable next to in. For example, in 16x, 16 is the coefficient and x is the variable. In 9y, 9 is the coefficient and y is the variable.
