3 0

To find the tax rate when given the initial price of an object and the final tax value, you use the equation: $350 * X = $22.75 (where X is the sales tax rate). Then solve:
$22.75/$350 = .065

So the rate is 6.5%

Find the distance between each set of points. Round to the nearest tenth, when necessary. (-3, 2) and (1, -6)
vovangra [49]

Answer:

<h2>The answer is 8.9 units</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points can be found by using the formula

d =  \sqrt{ ({x1 - x2})^{2} +  ({y1 - y2})^{2}  } \\

where

(x1 , y1) and (x2 , y2) are the points

From the question the points are

(-3, 2) and (1, -6)

The distance between them is

d =   \sqrt{ ({ - 3 - 1})^{2}  +  ({2 + 6})^{2} }   \\  =  \sqrt{ ({ - 4})^{2} +  {8}^{2}  }  \\  =  \sqrt{16 + 64}  \\  =  \sqrt{80}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \\  = 4 \sqrt{5}  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \\  = 8.9442719...

We have the final answer as

8.9 units to the nearest tenth

Hope this helps you

lora16 [44]

Answer:

D) 0.1250

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(J) = Probability of John to purchase 0 books

Let P(B) = Probability of Beth to purchase 0 books

P(J∩B) = Probability that both john and Beth will purchase 0 books .ie. a total of 0 books is purchased.

Since the decisions to purchase books are two independents events,

P(J∩B) = P(J) * P(B)

P(J) = 0.5

P(B) = 0.25

P(J∩B) = 0.5 * 0.25

P(J∩B) = 0.125

Jamie received £26 pocket money last week. He spent it as follows: 10% on sweets, 25% on magazines 15% on games How much did Jam
navik [9.2K]

Answer:

Total money left with Jamie = £13

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamie received pocket money = £26

He spent on sweets = 10% of total pocket money

Expense on magazines = 25% of the total money

Expense on games = 15% of the pocket money

Total expenditure on sweets, magazines and games = \frac{10}{100}+\frac{25}{100}+\frac{15}{100}

= \frac{50}{100} Or 50% of the pocket money he received

Therefore, money left with Jamie = 50% of total money he received as pocket money

= \frac{50}{100}\times 26

= £13
