Answer:

5.61; 8.5 %

Step-by-step explanation:

Tax = $1.87 per $22 meal

For a $66 meal,

Tax = 66 × 1.87/22

Tax = 3 × 1.87

Tax = $5.61

=====

Tax rate = 1.87/22 × 100

Tax rate = 0.085 × 100

Tax rate = 8.5 %

Find the value of d. 1/2d - 5 -1/4d = 10

Ksenya-84 [330]

D=60. multiply both sides of the equation by 4 since it’s a factor, giving you 2d-20-d=40. since there are like terms with d, collect them to get d-20=40 and move 20 to the right and change it’s sign. that will give you d=40+20, then calculate to get d=60. hope this helped! :)

1)Choose one of the factors of 24x6 - 1029y3 (24x to the sixth power minus 1029y to the third power) A)3 B)2x2 - 7y C)4x4 + 14x2

grigory [225]

24x⁶ - 1029y³ =
3(8x⁶ - 343y³) =
3((2x²)³ - (7y)³) =
3(2x²-7y)(4x⁴ + 14x²y + 49y²)

Answer is D) All of the above.
