we use the rectangle rule

96-92=4 parts of 92 octane

98-96=2 parts of 98 octane

4x+2x=12

6x=12

x=2

A CD usually sells for $17.00. If the CD is 20% off, and sales tax is 5%, what is the total price of the CD, including tax?

Vedmedyk [2.9K]

Answer:

$14.28

Step-by-step explanation:

If the CD is $17 and is have a 20% off then you multiply .20 and 17 to get the amount that is off. Subtract that answer from 17 and you should get $13.60. That is the cost of the CD WITHOUT tax. To apply the tax, you multiply the cost and 0.05 (5%) to get 0.68. 0.68 is the tax cost. To get the entire cost of the CD, you add 0.68 (tax) and price (13.60) and get $14.28.

MrRa [10]

Answer:

17x and 3x

Step-by-step explanation:

like terms are terms that have the same variables and powers. The coefficients do not need to match. Unlike terms are two or more terms that are not like terms, i.e. they do not have the same variables or powers. The order of the variables does not matter unless there is a power.

Lelu [443]

Answer:

1. City A: 150 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

City B: 161 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

2. City A

Step-by-step explanation:

City A:

Population = 123,000

Violent crimes = 185

Violent crimes per 100,000 people:

$V_{100k} = \frac{185*100,000}{123,000} \\V_{100k} = 150$

City B:

Population = 84,000

Violent crimes = 135

Violent crimes per 100,000 people:

$V_{100k} = \frac{135*100,000}{84,000} \\V_{100k} = 161$

1. City A: 150 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

City B: 161 violent crimes per 100,000 residents.

2. Even though it has a bigger number of crimes, City A has the lowest crime rate since its population is larger.
