Step-by-step explanation:
1 kg = 2.2 pounds
0.45 kg = 1 pounds to see whether it's correct or not we can cross multiply the given equations
multiply 1 kg with 1 pounds and 0.45 kg with 2.2 pounds then check if they are equal
1 × 1 = 2.2 × 0.45
1 = 0.99 as you can see this is not an equality therefore the statement is wrong.
Answer:
<em>The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages</u>
The procedure to add a percentage ratio p to a given quantity q is:
* Calculate the increase as i = p*q/100
* Add the increase to the original quantity to get the final quantity f=q + i
It's given the sales tax rate in New Mexico is p=5.125%. A pair of pants in New Mexico costs q=$30 before tax.
* The increase (tax) is i = (5.125*30)/100 = $1.54
* The price after tax is f = $30 + $1.54 = $31.54
The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54
The congruence theorem is always the same
