The simplest form is 1/8
3/3= 1 24/3 = 8 so 1/8
Answer:
x = ± 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given
f(x) = x² - 144
To find the roots set f(x) = 0, that is
x² - 144 = 0 ( add 144 to both sides )
x² = 144 ( take the square root of both sides )
x = ± 
= ± 12
Answer:
$48.66
Step-by-step explanation:
The price of a good is the base cost plus tax. We are given the cost of the skirt, so all we need is the amount of tax. To find it, we multiple the cost of the skirt by the tax rate:
45.99 * 0.058 = 2.67
We now add the tax to the cost of the skirt:
45.99 + 2.67 = 48.66
As you can see, we are adding the price of the skirt to 5.8% of the skirt's price, so we can also solve the problem by simply multiplying the cost by 1.058 as shown below:
45.99 * 1.058 = 48.66
