- 24

The quotient is the result of dividing 12 by - $\frac{1}{2}$

to divide change division to multiplication and turn the fraction upside down

= 12 × - $\frac{2}{1}$ = - 12 × 2 = - 24

Zack wants a new skateboard that costs $98. He has a coupon for 20% off the original price. The sales tax is 6%, what is the fin

svet-max [94.6K]

The final cost of skateboard will be $83.10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Cost of skateboard = $98

Coupon = 20% off

Amount of discount = 20% of cost of skateboard

$Amount\ of\ discount=\frac{20}{100}*98\\\\Amount\ of\ discount=\frac{1960}{100}\\\\Amount\ of\ discount=\$19.6$

Cost of skateboard after discount = Cost of skateboard - Amount of discount

Cost of skateboard after discount = 98 - 19.6 = $78.4

Sales tax = 6%

Sales tax amount = 6% of discounted price

$Sales\ tax\ amount=\frac{6}{100}*78.4\\\\Sales\ tax\ amount=\frac{470.4}{100}\\\\Sales\ tax\ amount=\$4.70$

Final cost of skateboard = Discounted price + Sales tax

Final cost of skateboard = 78.40+4.70 = $83.10

The final cost of skateboard will be $83.10

rjkz [21]

$\bf y=-27(x+4)^3+1\implies 0=-27(x+4)^3+1
\\\\\\
-1=-27(x+4)^3\implies \cfrac{-1}{-27}=(x+4)^3\implies \cfrac{1}{27}=(x+4)^3
\\\\\\
\sqrt[3]{\cfrac{1}{27}}=x+4\implies \cfrac{\sqrt[3]{1}}{\sqrt[3]{27}}=x+4\implies \cfrac{1}{3}=x+4\implies \cfrac{1}{3}-4=x
\\\\\\
-\cfrac{11}{3}=x$
