The equation that can be used to determine the tax rate, x is ;44.31 = 42 + (x% of 42) where x = 5.5%
<h3>How to write equation</h3>
- Cost of a shirt = $12.50
- Cost of each shorts = $14.75
- Cost of two shorts = 2 × $14.75
= $29.5
- Total cost = $12.50 + $29.5
= $42
- Total amount paid = $44.31
Total = total cost + x% of total cost
44.31 = 42 + (x% of 42)
44.31 = 42 + 42x/100
44.31 - 42 = 42x/100
2.31 = 42x / 100
x = 2.31 ÷ 42/100
= 2.31 × 100 /42
= 231/42
= 5.5%

Answer:its b
first off its a straight line ill give it that but its not going through the origin is think its b
hoped this helped lmk if it did
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The absolute value (or modulus) | x | of a real number x is the non-negative value of x without regard to its sign. For example, the absolute value of 5 is 5, and the absolute value of −5 is also 5. The absolute value of a number may be thought of as its distance from zero along real number line.

5 : 20
Divide both sides by 5 to get the answer
5/5 = 1
20/5 = 4
Thus, the answer is 1 : 4

Step-by-step explanation:
x and y are roughly in a linear relationship.
when x increases by 2 units, then also y increases by more or less 2 units.
when x increases by 3 units, then also y increases by more or less 3 units.
it is not precise, but a good approximation model.
