Answer:

10%

Step-by-step explanation:

we want to find what % of 34 is 37.40

so, we will use the following equation:

\frac{part}{whole} = \frac{percent}{100}

for this scenario:

part = 37.40

whole = 34

percent = x

now plug in:

\frac{37.40}{34} = \frac{x}{100}                         cross multiply

34x = (37.40)(100)

34x = 3740                      divide both sides by 34

x = 110%

now we know that with tax, we paid 110% of the video game's price

110 - 100 = 10%

so the percent sales tax is 10%

<u>just to check... </u>

34 • 1.10 = $37.40

or

34 • .10 = 3.40

34 + 3.40 = 37.40

bezimeni [28]

It is given in the question that

A city had population 67,255 on January 1,2000, and its population has been increasing by 2935 people each year since then.

Here initial population , b, is 67255, and the rate of increase of population is 2935 people each year. And that's the value of the slope .

Using slope intercept form, which is

y=mx+b

And substituting the values of m and b, we will get

p(t)=2935t +67255

Find the domain. Write your answer in interval notation.
shusha [124]
We can write the domain and range in interval notation which uses values within brackets to describe a set of numbers in interval notation we use a square bracket [ when the set includes the endpoint and a parenthesis ( to include that the endpoint is either not included or the interval is unbounded for example if a person has $100 to spend he or she would need to express the interval that is more than 0 and less than or equal to 100 and write (0, 100]. We will discuss interval notation in greater detail later
