Well you know that the value is 305 million
And the taxes are 13.75 million. taxes are a percentage of the value. to get a percentage of the value you use :
value * percent = percentage of value

So:
305 million * percent = 13.75 million
or:
305 * x = 13.75
x = 13.75 / 305
x = .045

x = 4.5%

(13,750,000) / (305,000,000) = 0.04508 or 4.508 %

PLEASE HELP! A positive number is 1/3 of another number. The sum of the numbers is five less than the square of the larger numbe

antoniya [11.8K]

Answer: The numbers are 1 and 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = smaller number , y= larger number.

As per given,

$x=\dfrac{y}{3}$ ...(i)

$x+y=y^2-5$ ...(ii)

Put value of x from (i) in (ii)

$\dfrac{y}{3}+y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ \dfrac43y=y^2-5\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-4y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y^2-9y+5y-15=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ 3y(y-3)+5(y-3)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ (y-3)(3y+5)=0\\\\\Rightarrow\ y=3 \ \ or\ y=\dfrac{-5}{3}$

Since numbers are positive , so y=3 is correct.

And x will be 1 [from (i)]

Hence, the numbers are 1 and 3.

The exponential function, f(x)=2^x, undergoes two transformations to g(x)=3x2^x+5. How does the graph change? Select all that ap

Shalnov [3]

Answer: Options A and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

The parent exponential function has the form:

$f(x)=b^x$

This can be transformated as following:

When you multiply the function by a factor a ( $a*f(x)$ ) and a>0 , then the function is vertically stretched.

When you add a number k to the parent function, the function is shifted up ( $f(x)+k$ )

The parent function given in the problem is:

$f(x)=2^x$

To obtain the function $g(x)=3*2^x+5$ , the parent function is multiplied by a factor 3 (which is greater than 0) and the number 5 is added.

Therefore, the graph is shifted up and vertically stretched.

Answer:

12 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Alyssa takes part in the triathlon. She cycles 4/5 of the route, runs 1/8 of the route, and swims the rest of the way. She swims 0.9 miles. Find the total distance of the triathlon route.

Total distance Alyssa cycled and ran =
