X= sales tax %
Step 1:
$240 * sales tax %= $12
240 * x= 12
240x=12
Divide both sides by 240
x= 0.05 (decimal of the %)
Convert to %:
Multiply decimal by 100 (or move decimal to the right two decimal places
=0.05 x 100
=5 %
The sales tax is 5%.
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
The total amount Alex spent is $ 9
Step-by-step explanation:
The given parameters are;
The amount Alex spends on food = 2/3 of his paycheck
The amount Alex spends on coffee = $3
Therefore, we have;
Fraction of the paycheck spent on coffee = 1 - 2/3 = 1/3 of p
The amount Alex spends on coffee = 1/3 of his paycheck
Therefore, we have;
1/3 × p = $3
p = 3 × $3 = $9
The total amount Alex spent = $ 9
The amount Alex spends on food = 2/3 × $9 = $6.
= 
The 2 right triangles are similar and so the ratios of corresponding sides are equal
The corresponding sides are x and 2, 6 and 1.5, hence
=
