The Area is the width<span> times the </span>height<span>: A = w x h;
Then, 64 = w x h;
h = 4 + w;
64 = 4w + w^2;
w^2 + 4w - 64 = 0;
We solve this equation: w1 </span>≈ 6,24 > 0 (okay); w2 ≈ - 10,24 < 0 (not okay);
<span>Finally, h1 </span>≈ 10,24;<span>

STEP 1:
find the sales tax (decimal form)
x= sales tax
Cost + (Cost * Sales Tax)= Total
plug in known numbers
$9.40 + ($9.40 * x)= $9.87
9.40 + 9.40x= 9.87
subtract 9.40 from both sides
9.40x= 0.47
divide both sides by 9.40
x= 0.47/9.40
x= 0.05 sales tax decimal form
STEP 2:
find sales tax percentage
= 0.05 * 100
or move decimal to the right two decimal places
= 5% sales tax percent form
ANSWER: The sales tax is 5% (or 0.05 in decimal form)
Hope this helps! :)
Answer:
See answers below
Step-by-step explanation:
From the given functions, the equivalent function for when x = 0 is -(x-1)²
h(x) = -(x-1)²
h(0) = -(0-1)²
h(0)= -(-1)²
h(0) = -1
when x = 2, the equivalent function is -1/2x - 1
h(x) = -1/2x - 1
h(2) = -1/2(2) - 1
h(2) = -1-1
h(2) = -2
when x = 5, the equivalent function is -1/2x - 1
h(x) = -1/2x - 1
h(5) = -1/2(5) - 1
h(5) = -5/2-1
h(5) = -7/2
