The sales tax rate was 6.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Price of iPad = $480

Sales tax on iPad = $31.20

Sales tax rate = \frac{sales\ tax}{Price\ of\ iPad}*100

Sales\ tax\ rate=\frac{31.20}{480}*100\\Sales\ tax\ rate=\frac{3120}{480}\\Sales\ tax\ rate=6.5\%

The sales tax rate was 6.5%

If we take 1200 as the 100%, how much percentage is 700 of it?

well \bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
1200&100\\
700&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{1200}{700}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies x=\cfrac{700\cdot 100}{1200}
\\\\\\
x=\cfrac{175}{3}

so, (175/3)% or roughly 58.3%

now, how much is (175/3)% of 15000 ?
well, if we take 15000 as the 100%
then   \bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash&\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\textendash\\
15000&100\\
x&\frac{175}{3}
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{15000}{x}=\cfrac{100}{\frac{175}{3}}
\\\\\\
\cfrac{15000\cdot \frac{175}{3}}{100}=x\implies \cfrac{5000\cdot 175}{100}=x

Part A: The area of a square is (9x2 − 12x + 4) square units. Determine the length of each side of the square by factoring the a
Sladkaya [172]

Answer:

Part A: The length of each side is 3x-2 units long.

Part B: The dimensions are 5x-4 and 5x+4 units long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

--> 9x^2-12x+4

--> Multiply 9 times 4 to see the factors of that product

--> 9 times4 = 36

Factors of 36 are 1, 2, 3, 4, 6, 9, 12, 18, 36

Use the factor 6 and make it negative so -6

add another -6

Keep in mind that it is -6x

--> 9x^2-6x-6x+4

Separate the four terms into two different binomials

--> 9x^2-6x  and -6x+4

Factor the binomials

With 9x^2-6x you can factor a 3x

So it will 3x(3x-2)

Do the same thing with -6x+4

You can factor out a -2

-2(3x-2)

The reason you factor out a -2 and not 2 is because it has to be same so in this case it is (3x-2)

Take the two numbers that you factored and put them to make an expression so (3x-2)

--> (3x-2)(3x-2) or (3x-2)^2

3x-2 is the length of each side so it is 3x-2 units long

Part B:

-->25x^2-16y^2

Use the difference of squares

take the square root of 25x^2

that is 5x

take the square root of 16y^2

that is 4y

write it in this way (5x+4y)(5x-4y)

These are the dimensions of the rectangle
