Sales tax is:
$16* (6/100)= $0.96

$16+ $0.96= $16.96

The total cost including sales tax is $16.96~

<span>The sales tax in New Jersey is 6%. For a $16 book, what will the total cost be, including sales tax?
Solutions:
=> 16 dollars is the amount of book
=> 6% is the sales tax which is equals to (6% / 100% = 0.06)
Let’s follow the formula to get the total amount to be paid.
=> 16 dollars * .06 = .96 dollars
Now, let’s add this together:
=> .96 + 16 dollars = 16.96 dollars.</span>

Which numbers for b would make √b irrational<br><br>mark as brilliant!

just olya [345]

Answer:

All of the options when substituted for b will make the root of b irrational

Step-by-step explanation:

Mathematically, surds are roots of non-perfect squares and they are tagged as irrational numbers

For b to be irrational, all of the numbers given would fit. This is because all of these numbers are non-perfect squares meaning they do not have square root.

So what this mean is that these numbers when put under the root umbrella are irrational numbers as they are not perfect squares

You and three friends go to a baseball game. You each pay $2 for a drink and x dollars for nachos. Use the Distributive Property

BabaBlast [244]

Answer:

The simplified expression for the total amount the group pays is (6 + 3·x) dollars

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of friends that went to the baseball game = 3

The amount each paid for a drink = $2

The amount each paid for nachos = x dollars

Therefore, the amount each spend = $2 + x dollars

The total amount the three friends spend = 3 × ($2 + x dollars)

By distributive property is given as follows;

a × (b + c) = a × b + a × c

a × (b - c) = a × b - a × c

Given that a, b, and c are real numbers

Therefore;

The total amount the three friends spend = 3 × ($2 + x dollars) = 3 × $2 + 3 × x dollars

The total amount the three friends spend = 3 × $2 + 3 × x dollars

The simplified expression for the total amount the group pays = $(6 + 3·x) = (6 + 3·x) dollars.

I’m thinking of a number. When you multiply it by 3 and subtract 10 you will get a number less than 5. Form an inequality and so

sweet-ann [11.9K]

Answer:

$3x-10$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be equal to the number.

We can use what the question gives us to directly form a mathematical statement. When you multiply it by 3 (3x) and then subtract 10 (3x-10) you will get a number less than 5 (<5). Using this, our mathematical statement would look like this:

$3x-10$

To find the range of possible values, we must solve the inequality and isolate x.

$3x-10$

Add 10 to both sides

$3x-10+10$

Divide both sides by 3

$\frac{3x}{3}$

I hope this helps!
