the sales tax for an item was $30.10 and it cost $430 before tax. find the sale tax rate. write your answer as a percentage.

1 answer:

4 0

To find a percentage of a number, multiply by the decimal form of that percentage(20%=0.20). So, take the cost, $430, and multiply by common state sales tax (7% for me)---430 x 0.07 = 30.10 The sale tax rate is 7%.

PLEASE HELP ASAP! I need the answer for this question anyone ?

Answer:

A: sqrt(11)

B: 4.2

C: sqrt(26)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, 4^2 = 16

That means that sqrt 11 is smaller than 4.2 (a value greater than 4). This is because sqrt16>sqrt11.

Sqrt(26) is greater than sqrt(25) = 5. That means that it's greater than 4.2.

Hence, the order given above.

A cone with a diameter of 12 inches has a volume of 640.88 cubic inches. find the height of the cone

BlackZzzverrR [31]

Answer:

The height of the cone is $17\ in$

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The volume of a cone is equal to

$V=\frac{1}{3}\pi r^{2}h$

In this problem we have

$r=12/2=6\ in$ ----> the radius is half the diameter

$V=640.88\ in^{3}$

assume $\pi=3.14$

substitute the values and solve for h

$640.88=\frac{1}{3}(3.14)(6)^{2}h$

$h=640.88*3/((3.14)(36))=17\ in$

Two-thirds a number plus 4 is 7

ICE Princess25 [194]

The equation (form) is: $\frac{2}{3}x + 4 = 7$

The solution of the equation is: $x = \frac{9}{2}$

Explanation:

First, let's call the number we are going to solve for "x".

Then two thirds of this number can be written as:

$\frac{2}{3}x$

Then "plus 4" means add 4 we get:

$\frac{2}{3}x + 4$

"is 7" means that the above expression is equal to 7 (as follows):

$\frac{2}{3}x + 4 = 7$

The solution of the above equation is:

$\frac{2}{3}x + 4 = 7 \\ \frac{2}{3}x = 3 \\ x = \frac{9}{2}$
