Multiply the cost of an item or service by the sales tax in order to find out the total cost. The equation looks like this: Item or service cost x sales tax (in decimal form) = total sales tax. Add the total sales tax to the Item or service cost to get your total cost.
Make sure you put the sales tax into decimal form. You do this by taking the percentage and sliding the decimal point two places to the left:
7.5% sales tax becomes .075 in decimal form
3.4% sales tax becomes .034 in decimal form
5% sales tax becomes .05 in decimal form
Example: $60 (item cost) x .075 (sales tax) = $4.5 total sales tax
Answer: Swing twice as fast
Explanation: If superman wants to get a lot of kinetic energy he should swing fast. Kinetic energy is the energy of motion/movement so that means the more you do something fast the more KE you will get and if you do something twice as fast then you will gain more kinetic energy.
Hi there!
The perimeter is when you add all the sides of a shape. In a rectangle, two sides are the same, and so are the other two. So, if the two sides are 2x-3 and x+2 the expression will be:
2(2x-3) + 2(x+2)
If we were to simplify this, it would be
4x-6+2x+4
6x-2
Hope this helps!
