Answer:

The amount of tax is $14.37 and the tax rate percentage is 12.18%

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the amount of tax by finding the difference between the cost and selling price:

132.37 - 118

= 14.37

Find the tax rate percentage by dividing the tax by the original cost, and multiplying it by 100:

(14.37/118) x 100

= 12.18

The amount of tax is $14.37 and the tax rate percentage is 12.18%

Find the function value. tan495°
inysia [295]

Answer: -1

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find an angle that is coterminal to 495. So, subtract 360 degrees until youre in the range of 0-360. I got 495 - 360 = 135°

Tangent is equal to \frac{sin(theta)}{cos(theta)}, we already solved theta which was 135°

This next part is hard to explain to someone who doesnt know their trig circle, idk if you do. The angle 135 is apart of the pi/4 gang. So we know this is going to be some variant of √2/2. Sine of quadrant 1 and 2 is gonna be positive:

sin135=\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}

Now lets do cosine of 135°, which again is apart of the pi/4 gang because its divisible by 45°. Its in quadrant 2 so the cosine will be negative.

cos135=-\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2}

The final step is to divide them. They are both fractions so you should multiply by the reciprocal.

\frac{\sqrt{2} }{2} *-\frac{2}{\sqrt{2} } =-\frac{2\sqrt{2} }{2\sqrt{2} } =-1

A taxi costs 1.65 for the first mile and 0.85 for each additional mile. Which equation could be solved to find the number x of a
diamong [38]
1.65 + 0.85x= $20
           0.85x=$18.35
                 x=21 10/17 
first you write the equation 
then you have to subtract 1.65 from the equation but you also have to subtract it from 20 
then you divide 0.85 from 0.85x and from the 18.35 left over from subtracting 1.65 from 20 
then you should get x=21 10/17 (simplified) but the decimal form is a ongoing fraction so you can just round it up to the nearest hundredth

Answer:

The second table of values.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's put the x-values in the second table of values in correct number order:

x: -3, -2, -1, 0, 1

Now, let's write out the y-values in correct number order:

y: 1/4, 1, 4, 16, 64

Finally, let's rewrite the second table of values with the x-values in order and the corresponding y-values underneathe:

x: -3,  -2,  -1  0  1

y: 64,  16,  4, 1,  1/4

As it can be seen, as the x-values get bigger in value, the y-values get smaller exponentially, which is the definition of exponential decay.
