<span>Since both places are on the same longitude (122° west) and different lattitudes 45° north and 37° north, the distance between the two place lies on a great circle (along a line of longitude).
Difference in latitudes = 45 - 37 = 8° (subtract the lattitudes because both sides are on the same side in the latitude i.e. both are north)
The distance between two points along the line of longitude is given by theta / 360 x 2 x pi x R: where theta = 8° and R is the radius of the earth = 3,960 miles.
d = 8 / 360 x 2 x pi x 3960 = 552.9 miles</span>
Answer: Sales tax would be $5.40
Step-by-step explanation: The sales value itself of the dress (that is, without tax) is $65.49.
The amount charged as sales tax in Pearland is given as 8.25% (or 0.0825).
Hence if she is shopping in Pearland, the AMOUNT OF SALES TAX she would pay can be calculated as,
Sales tax = Sales price x 0.0825
Sales tax = 65.49 x 0.0825
Sales tax = 5.402925
Approximately to two decimal places, the sales tax becomes $5.40
Step-by-step explanation:
A number that is negative is less than 0, so
So this function is negative, when x is less than -2
