If the sales tax for the city of Richmond is 6%, how much tax would you pay for a Playstation 5 that costs

Start by converting 6% to a decimal by dividing by 100, = 0.06

Multiply that by the cost of the PlayStation five, and that is how much tax you pay.

499.99 x 0.06 = 29.9994
The question says to round it to the nearest hundredths, so it’s $30

The total rainfall in forks , washington, october was 8 3/8 in. in september ,60% less rainfall fell in October
iren2701 [21]
Rainfall in October in Forks, Washington = 8 3/8 inches
                                                                 = 67/8 inches
Percentage of rainfall that has fallen less in September in Forks, Washington = 60%
Let us assume the amount of rainfall in September in Forks, Washington = x
Then
100x/60 = 67/8
10x/6 = 67/8
5x/3 = 67/8
5x * 8 = 67 * 3
40x = 201
x = 201/40
   = 5 1/40 inches
So the amount of rainfall in September in Washinton is 5 1/40 inches.

Use the "rule of 72" to estimate the doubling time (in years) for the interest rate, and then calculate it exactly. (Round your
bonufazy [111]

Answer:

Using the rule of 72, the doubling time is 9.35 years.

The exact answer is that the doubling time is 8.89 years.

Step-by-step explanation:

By the rule of 72, we have that the doubling time D is given by:

D = \frac{72}{Interest Rate}

The interest rate is in %.

In our exercise, the interest rate is 7.7%. So, by the rule of 72:

D = \frac{72}{7.7} = 9.35.

Exact answer:

The exact answer is going to be found using the compound interest formula(since the rule of 72 is a simplification of this formula).

The compound interest formula is given by:

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

Where A is the amount of money, P is the principal(the initial sum of money), r is the interest rate(as a decimal value), n is the number of times that interest is compounded per unit t and t is the time the money is invested or borrowed for.

So, for this exercise, we have:

We want to find the doubling time, that is, the time in which the amount is double the initial amount, double the principal.

A = 2P

r = 0.077

There are 52 weeks in a year, so n = 52

A = P(1 + \frac{r}{n})^{nt}

2P = P(1 + \frac{0.077}{52})^{52t}

2 = (1.0015)^{52t}

Now, we apply the following log propriety:

\log_{a} a^{n} = n

So:

\log_{1.0015}(1.0015)^{52t} = \log_{1.0015} 2

52t = 462.44

t = \frac{462.44}{52}

t = 8.89

The exact answer is that the doubling time is 8.89 years.
