Answer:

the sales tax rate is 8.59%

Step-by-step explanation:

The computation of the sales tax rate is as follows:

= Tax value ÷ Total taxes

= $10.80 ÷ ($150.52 - $24.72)

= $10.80 ÷ $125.80

= 8.59%

Hence, the sales tax rate is 8.59%

We simply applied the above formula to determine the sales tax rate

In Exercises 10 and 11, points B and D are points of tangency. Find the value(s) of x.<br>​
Lemur [1.5K]

In both cases,

AB^2=AD^2

(as a consequence of the interesecting secant-tangent theorem)

So we have

10.

(4x+7)^2=(6x-3)^2

16x^2+56x+49=36x^2-36x+9

20x^2-92x-40=0

5x^2-23x-10=0

(5x+2)(x-5)=0\implies\boxed{x=5}

(omit the negative solution because that would make at least one of AB or AD have negative length)

11.

(4x^2-18x-10)^2=(x^2+x+4)^2

16x^4-144x^3+244x^2+360x+100=x^4+2x^3+9x^2+8x+16

15x^4-146x^3+235x^2+352x+84=0

(x-7)(3x+2)(5x^2-17x-6)=0\implies\boxed{x=-\dfrac23\text{ or }x=7}

(again, omit the solutions that would give a negative length for either AB or AD)

There were 35,000 hardback copies of a certain novel sold before the paperback version was issued. From the time the first paper
bija089 [108]

Answer:

3,717,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of paperback copies is shown below:-

Let us assume hardback copies is x, so paperback copies will be 9x

now the equation is

35,000 + x + 9x = 448,000

10x = 448,000 - 35,000

10x = 413,000

= \frac{413,000}{10}

= 41,300

Therefore, the paperback copies are

=  9\times 41,300

= 3,717,000

Hence, the paperback copies is 3,717,000
