5% is the same as .05, so in this case, the sales tax is added by .05. Subtract .05 from 24.45 to get the original price of the futon. You'll get $24.40

Answer:

The purchase price of the futon is $23.2275.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sales price is how much you sold the product for, including the taxes, which is 5%.

The purchase price is how much you bought the futon for, that is, without the taxes.

The tax rate is 5% and you sell the futon for $24.45. So you paid for the futon 95% of 24.45.

So

24.45 - 1

x - 0.95

x = 0.95*24.45 = 23.2275

The purchase price of the futon is $23.2275.

If the roots of a quadratic equation are 1±√5, then the product of the roots is
Drupady [299]
The plus-minus sign represents that there are two possible outcomes.

In this case, we have 1 \pm \sqrt{5}. When we branch out the possibilities we got 2 values: 1 + \sqrt{5} and 1 - \sqrt{5}

Those are the roots of this equation. When they ask their product, they want you to multiply both numbers.

When we multiply them: (1 + \sqrt{5}) \times( 1 - \sqrt{5})

When we FOIL the we get: 1 \times 1 - 1 \times \sqrt{5} + 1 \times \sqrt{5} - \sqrt{5} \times \sqrt{5}

Simplify:
1 - \sqrt{5} + \sqrt{5} - 5
1 - 5 = 6

So the product of the two roots of this equation is 6.

A farmer has 7 3/4 rows of radishes in one field, 4 3/4 rows of radishes in another field, and 6 1/4 rows of radishes in a third
Gala2k [10]

Answer:

  A. 18 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is convenient to rearrange the sum to make it easier to compute:

  7 3/4 + 4 3/4 + 6 1/4 = (7 3/4) +(4 +6) +(3/4 +1/4)

  = 7 3/4 + 10 + 1

  = 18 3/4

The farmer has 18 3/4 rows of radishes altogether.

harina [27]

Answer:

n < 27

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be n

\frac{1}{3} n - 3 < 6 \\ add \: 3 \: to \: both \: sides \\  \frac{1}{3}n - 3 + 3  <  6 + 3 \\  \frac{1}{3} n  <  \\  9 \\ multiply \: both \: sides \: by \: 3 \\  \frac{1}{3} n  \times 3< 9 \times 3 \\ n < 27
