Answer:

14¢

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this problem, we need to multiply 2.79 by 5%.

First, lets change 5% into a decimal as shown below:

5% -> \frac{5}{100} -> 0.05

Now, lets multiply 2.79 by 0.05:

x=2.79(0.05)

x=.1395

The last step is to round our number. 0.1395 rounded to the nearest hundredth gives us .14 (14¢)

<u>The sales tax being charged is 14¢</u>

Graph the equation y= 1/2x +3
PolarNik [594]
Find some graphing paper and graph away..
i.e. Sub in x = 0 and find what y = ?
y = 1/2(0) + 3
y = 3
So we know the coordinate (0,3)

When x = 4 , y = ?
y = 1/2(4) + 3
y = 4/2 + 3
y = 2 + 3
y = 5
So we know another coordinate (4, 5)

When x = -4, y = ?
y = 1/2(-4) + 3
y = -4/2 + 3
y = -2 + 3
y = 1
So we know another coordinate (-4, 1)

Putting it all together, the coordinates: (-4, 1) , (0, 3) and (4, 5) should be plenty sufficient to graph and then draw a line of best fit connecting them.

Jamal has a pair of shoes that have a total mass of 960 grams and four identical books that have a total mass of 2 kilograms. Wh
Andreyy89

Answer: One book has a greater mass.

Step-by-step explanation:

Jamal has a pair of shoes with a total mass of 960 grams. This means that each shoe has a mass of:

960 grams ÷ 2= 480 grams per shoe.

Jamal also has four identical books with a total mass of 2 kilograms. Note that 1000 grams make a kilograms. Therefore 2 kilograms will be (2 × 1000 grams) = 2000 grams.

Each book will have a mass of:

2000 ÷ 4 = 500 grams per book.

One shoe has a mass of 960 divided 2 = 480 grams . One book has a mass of 2000 divided 4 = 500 grams . So one book has a greater mass.

12^3 tanx-4^3tan2x<br>solve next step fast guys​
shepuryov [24]

Step-by-step explanation:

3 tan 2x - 4 tan 3x = tan² 3x * tan 2x

3 (tan 2x - tan 3x) = tan 3x + tan² 3x * tan 2x

= tan 3x (1 + tan 3x * tan 2x)

3 (tan 2x - tan 3x)/(1 + tan 3x * tan 2x) = tan 3x

3 * (- tan x) = tan 3x

-3tanx = (3 tan x - tan³ x) / (1 - 3 tan² x)

3 - tan² x = - 3 + 9 tan² x

tan x = + √3 /√5 or - √3/√5

Sum of three consecutive multiples of 6 is 648. One of these multiple is​
Ber [7]

Answer:

Let two consecutive multiples of 3 be x and (x+3)

A/q,

x * (x+3) = 648

➡ x² + 3x = 648

➡ x² + 3x -648 = 0

➡ x² + 27x - 24x -648 = 0

➡ x ( x + 27 ) -24 ( x +27)

➡ ( x - 24) ( x + 27)

➡ x = 24 and x = -27

so, we take x = 24.

Required multiples of 3

➡ x = 24

➡ x +3 = 24+3 = 27.
