What we need to do with this problem is multiply the amount the computer costs ($350) by the tax rate (6%). To do this, we first need to convert the percentage to a decimal, so we divide the 6 given by 100, leaving us with .06. Next, we need to multiply the $350 by the .06, giving us $21 as the amount we should be paying for sales tax. So your answer should be 2) $21.00!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the population has been modeled by the formula:
a=118e^(0.024t), the time taken for the population to hit 140k will be given by:
140000=118e^(0.024t)
solving for t we shall have:
140000/118=e^(0.024t)
thus;
0.024t=ln(140000/118)
t=1/0.024*ln(140000/118)
t=295
thus the time the population will be 140000 will be:
1998+295
=2293
X^2 +3x-4=0
(X+4)(x-1)=0 so x = -4 and x=1 are solutions
2.5 is your answer because first we divide the numbers then subtract 2 from both sides and simplify
