Answer:

The answer is $ 59.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, I know this is not one of the options, but hear me out:

To find the sales tax for that item, you need to multiply the dollar amount by the sales tax (in percent):

$55 * 8.8% = $4.84

So the sales tax is $4.84.  However, the question asks "How much would you pay for that item?", not what the sales tax is.  So I would solve this problem by adding the sales tax to the dollar amount of the item:

$55 + $4.84 = $ 59.84

If you are able to write or type your answer, I would type $ 59.84. If you can only select one of the given values, then I would suggest going with             A: $ 4.84 just because its the only number that is actually relevant at all to the problem.

PLZZZZ HELP What is the slope of a line that is perpendicular to a line whose equation is 3y=−4x+2 ?
earnstyle [38]

\bf 3y=-4x+2\implies y=\cfrac{-4x+2}{3} \\\\\\ y=\stackrel{\stackrel{slope}{\downarrow }}{-\cfrac{4}{3}}x+\cfrac{2}{3}\impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}


so the slope of that line above is really -4/3, now


\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{-\cfrac{4}{3}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{-\cfrac{3}{4}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{+\cfrac{3}{4}\implies \blacktriangleright \cfrac{3}{4} \blacktriangleleft}}

PQ has endpoints P(-3,2) and Q(3,-2). Find the coordinates of the midpoint of PQ
hodyreva [135]

Answer:

(0,0)

Step-by-step explanation:

For this, you need to use the midpoint formula.

(-3) + 3                      2 + (-2)

--------------      ,       ----------------

     2                               2

This leads to:

-3 + 3 = 0 -> 0/2

x = 0

3 + (-3) = 0 -> 0/2

The answer is:

(0, 0)
