Answer:

=−5

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Rearrange terms

25−3=40

−3+25=40

2. Subtract 25 from both sides of the equation

−3+25=40

−3+25−25=40−25

3. Simplify

If you subtract the numbers

−3=15

4. Divide both sides of the equation by the same term

−3=15

−3÷-3=15÷-3

5. Simplify

If you divide the numbers

=−5

And thats the answer

I hope this helped     :)

Mr. Luis wants to sell his house. The state he lives in charges a 3.5% sales tax on the sale of a house. The county charges a 3.
GarryVolchara [31]

We have been given that Mr. Luis wants to sell his house. The state he lives in charges a 3.5% sales tax on the sale of a house. The county charges a 3.9% sales tax, and the city charges a 2.2% sales tax.

We are asked to find the total tax, if Mr Luis sells his home for $122,500.

To find total tax, we will add all tax rates as they are being applied to same base.

\text{Total of tax rates}=3.5\%+3.9\%+2.2\%

\text{Total of tax rates}=9.6\%

Now we will find 9.6% of $122,500 to find total tax bill.

\text{Total tax bill}=\$122,500\times \frac{9.6}{100}

\text{Total tax bill}=\$1225\times 9.6

\text{Total tax bill}=\$11,760

Therefore, the total tax bill of Mr. Luis would be \$11,760.

A football is kicked into the air. The height of the football can be modeled by the equation
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

x = 0 and x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A football is kicked into the air. The height of the football can be modeled by the equation :

h = -16x^2 + 16x

Where

h is the height reached by the ball after x seconds

When it touches the ground, h = 0

So,

-16x^2 + 16x=0\\\\16x(-x+1)=0\\\\x=0\ and\ x=1

So, it will touch the ground at x = 0 and x = 1 seconds.
