The sales tax = $48.50
Let x be the sales tax rate expressed as a percent.
So x% * 776 = 48.50
x/100 * 776 = 48.50
x * 776 = 4850 (multiply both sides by 100)
x = 4850/776
x= 6.25%
So the sales tax rate expressed as a percent is 6.25%.

A. 8^9/2= around 11585.2375; (sqrt8)^9= around 11585.2375. So choice A shows a pair of equivalent expressions.

B. (3sqrt125)^9=1,953,125; 125^9/3=1,953,125. So choice B also shows a pair of equivalent expressions.

C. 12^2/7= around 2.03394; (sqrt12)^7= around 5,985.96759. So choice C does not show a pair of equivalent expressions.

D. 4^1/5=around 1.31951; (sqrt4)^5=32. So choice D also doesn't show a pair of equivalent expressions.

Your answers are A and B.

I hope this helps ;)

What are the solutions to the quadratic equation (5y + 6)2 = 24?
lana [24]
To solve for y, apply the distributive property:
10y + 12 = 24
Then, subtract 12 from both sides and you will get:
10y = 12 \\
Then solve for y, by dividing both sides by 10.

Your final answer will be y=1.2
