Okay. To find the percent of change, you have to set up a proportion and set it up like this: change/original = x/100. The change is the difference between the numbers. 5.30 - 5.00 is 0.30. The amount of change is 30 cents (0.30). The original price was $5.00. Now let's set up the proportion. 0.30/5.00 = x/100. Cross multiply the values in order to get 30 = 5x. Now, divide each side by 5 to isolate the "x". When you do that, you get x = 6. There. The tax rate is 6%.

What’s the formula for the series -5,10,-20,40
diamong [38]

Answer:

Stare at it long enough. You will notice that with each step you double the value, and change sign. It makes it a geometric sequence of ratio -2. At this point you have two ways of writing down:

Option 1: Ricorsively, the first term is -5, then the next term is -2 times the previous one:

\left \{ {{a_0=-5} \atop {a_{n+1}=-2a_n}} \right.

Option 2: In closed form, remembering that the n-th term in a geometric sequence is the starting term times the n-th power of the ratio:

a_n=-5 (-2)^n

Either work, depending on what you need to use it for.
