The sales tax rate would be 8%.

To find how much you spent on tax in the total, you'd begin by subtracting the pre-tax notebook from the after tax notebook.

4.86 - 4.50 = 0.36

So now we know that you spent 36 cents on tax. From there, we'd divide our money spent on tax by our pre-tax total. 

0.36 ÷ 4.50 = 0.08

This means that the sales tax is 8%. 

Hope I could help!

Answer:

\text{Null hypothesis}: H_0:\mu=90\\\\\text{Alternative Hypothesis}:\mu\neq 90

Step-by-step explanation:

Given claim : From the time shoots are planted 90 days on average are required to obtain the first berry.

. The sample mean is 92.3 days. The corporation wants to know if the mean number of days is different from the 90 days claimed.

As we know that the null hypotheses shows there is no statistical difference between the groups but the alternative hypothesis is opposite to it, it shows there is difference.

Thus , the correct hypotheses will be :-

\text{Null hypothesis}: H_0:\mu=90\\\\\text{Alternative Hypothesis}:\mu\neq 90

Brainliest? :(
Svetlanka [38]

Answer:

(f\cdot g)(x)=2x^2+10x+12

(f-g)(x)=-x-1

(f+g)(1)=10

Step-by-step explanation:

\tt f(x)=x+3

\tt g(x)=2x+4

(f\cdot g)(x)=f(x)\cdot g(x)=(x+3)(2x+4)=2x^2+4x+6x+12

=2x^2+10x+12

(f-g)(x)=f(x)-g(x)=x+3-(2x+4)=x+3-2x-4

=-x-1

(f+g)(1)=f(1)+g(1)=1+3+2(1)+4

=4+2+4=10

Solve the inequality -5.3≥6.7+4.3+q
GaryK [48]
Remember, you can do anything to an equation as long as you do it to both sides

for inequalities, if you multiply or divide both sides by a negative number, you flip the direction of the inequality sign

-5.3≥6.7+4.3+q
add like terms
-5.3≥11+q
minus 11 both sides
-16.3≥q
q≤-16.3

1. (SLO) Simplify the expression: 6(b-7)
Sav [38]

1 → B

multiply each term in the parenthesis by the 6 outside

6(b-7) = 6b - 42

2 → D

multiply each term in the parenthesis by the 3 outside

3(4x+6y+2) = 12x+18y+6

3 → A

the value outside the parenthesis is -1, hence each term inside is multiplied by -1

-1(6x+5y) = -6x -5y
