Not a function because it can’t be put into y=mx+b form.

y^2 = x isn't a function because there is at least one value of x that produces multiple values of y. In fact, any x value greater than 0 yields two y values. If x = 0, then y = 0 is the only solution. ... Graphically, the equation fails the vertical line test, which is another way to determine that it is not a function.

A rectangle and a square have the same perimeter. the rectangle is of length 6cm and has an area of 48cm², find the length of th

EleoNora [17]

<em>The length of the square that has the same perimeter as the rectangle is of length 6cm and area of 48cm² is 7cm</em>

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Let's call:

$A_{s}:Area \ of \ square \\ \\ A_{r}:Area \ of \ rectangle \\ \\ P_{s}:Perimeter \ of \ square \\ \\ P_{r}:Perimeter \ of \ rectangle$

From the question, we know that:

<em>A rectangle and a square have the same perimeter.</em>

So:

$P_{s}=P_{r}$

Moreover:

<em>The rectangle is of length 6cm and has an area of 48cm²</em>

Accordingly:

$For \ Rectangle: \\ \\ L:Length \\ W:Width \\ \\ A_{r}=L\times W \\ \\ 48=6W \\ \\ W=8$

Also:

$A_{s}=s^2 \\ \\ S:Side \ of \ square$

From the statement of perimeters:

$P_{s}=P_{r} \\ \\ \\ But: \\ \\ P_{s}=4s \\ \\ P_{r}=2W+2L \\ \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ 4s=2W+2L \\ \\ \\ But: \ W=8 \ and \ L=6 \\ \\ 4s=2(8)+2(6) \\ \\ 4s=16+12 \\ \\ 4s=28 \\ \\ \boxed{s=7cm}$

Finally, <em>the length of the square that has the same perimeter as the rectangle is of length 6cm and area of 48cm² is 7cm</em>

Original price: $23.37<br>with tax : $24.91<br>what is the sales tax percentage

Marina86 [1]

Answer:

6.6% = tax rate

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find out how much was paid in tax

24.91 - 23.37 =1.54

The tax is 1.54

The tax is the original price * tax rate

1.54 = 23.37 * tax rate

Divide each side by 23.37

1.54/23.37 = tax rate

.065896448= tax rate

Changing to percent form

6.6% = tax rate
