Answer: $5.1

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question, we are informed that thee price of the skateboard is $85 and that the sales tax is 6%.

To calculate the sales tax for the skateboard in dollars in cents, we find 6% of$85. This will be:

= 6% of $85

= 6% × $85

= 6/100 × $85

= 0.06 × $85

= $5.1

= 5 dollar, 10 cents

The line parellel to 2x+y=5 and passing through (5,4) has equation
mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

y=-2x+14

Step-by-step explanation:

If we are looking for a line parallel to 2x+y=5.

Then we are looking for an equation with the same slope as the equation 2x+y=5.

To obtain the slope of equaiton 2x+y=5 I will put it in slope-intercept form.

Luckily there is only one step which is to subtract 2x on both sides.

y=-2x+5

The slope of this line is -2

The slope of parallel line will also be -2.

So we know our equation is in the form y=-2x+b

To find b we will just use the point (x,y)=(5,4) we know is on the line.

Plug in and solve for b.

4=-2(5)+b

4=-10+b

14=b

So the equation that is parallel to 2x+y=5 and goes through (5,4) is y=-2x+14

Applying GCF and LCM to fraction Operations?<br>.<br>. PLZ HELP
I am Lyosha [343]
When multiplying fractions just multiply the numerator and denominators together, then simplify the fraction you get.

To solve the addition problem, first convert 2 and 1/2 to an improper fraction. It should be 5/2. Now 3/8 and 5/2 must be added together.

To add these, they must have the same denominator. Let's give 5/2 a denominator of 8, so it matches 3/8.

To give 5/2 a denominator of 8, you are starting with a denominator of 2. 2 × 4 = 8, so you must multiply 5/2 by 4.

You should get 20/8. Now you have to add 20/8 and 3/8. The only thing you add is the numerator, so you should get 23/8 as a final answer.

For the subtraction problem, do these same steps to make the fractions you must subtract have the same denominator, then subtract only the numerator to get the answer. Once you solve the subtraction problem, text me what you got so I can check it for you. :)

Help please! Identify an equation in point slope form for the line perpendicular to Y =-1/2x+11that passes through (4,-8)
juin [17]

Answer:

y=2x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

You set the slope to the opposite of -1/2 which is 2/1 or 2.

Then you do b=2(4) (because 4 is the x in the coordinate points)

and solve for b you get 8 so

Y=2x+8

Answer:

2(x+10)

Well since sum is addition and the number and 10 are the sum, let’s make the “number“ (x) and add em up. 10+x.

Now we gotta double that sum which is basically
