Answer:

The price before sales tax was added was $9.72.

Step-by-step explanation:

48.60 x 0.8 = 38.88 (Sales tax price)
48.60 - 38.88 = 9.72 (Price before sales tax)

Leslie decides to join a gym. She must pay a monthly fee plus a one-time fee to open a membership. This situation can be modeled

liq [111]

Answer:

see below (I hope this helps!)

Step-by-step explanation:

The x seems to represent the number of months that Leslie has joined the gym for. When x = 0 (basically when she hasn't started using her membership), she pays 55(0) + 50 = $50 so we know that the 50 represents the one-time fee. The only thing missing is the monthly fee and since we haven't defined what the 55 means, we can conclude that the 55 represents the monthly fee. This makes sense because 55x is simply 55 times x, and since x is the number of months, 55 times that would be how much Leslie pays per month, otherwise known as the monthly fee.

Given: circle k(O), m∠P=95°, m∠J=110°, m∠LK=125°<br> Find: m∠PJ

IRINA_888 [86]

Answer:

The measure of the arc PJ is $75\°$

Step-by-step explanation:

step 1

Find the measure of angle L

we know that

In a inscribed quadrilateral opposite angles are supplementary

so

$m$

we have

$m$

substitute

$m$

$m$

step 2

Find the measure of arc KJ

we know that

The inscribed angle measures half that of the arc comprising

so

$m$

substitute the values

$95\°=\frac{1}{2}(125\°+arc\ KJ)$

$190\°=(125\°+arc\ KJ)$

$arc\ KJ=190\°-125\°=65\°$

step 3

Find the measure of arc PJ

we know that

The inscribed angle measures half that of the arc comprising

so

$m$

substitute the values

$70\°=\frac{1}{2}(65\°+arc\ PJ)$

$140\°=(65\°+arc\ PJ)$

$arc\ PJ=140\°-65\°=75\°$

Answer:

a. $x^{2} + 3y^{3}$

b. $3y^{3} -6$

c. $5x -3$

d. -6t - 5

Step-by-step explanation:

When a number has the same variable as another, you can add or subtract them

So for the first one, you can do

$5x^{2} -4x^{2} = 1x^{2} = x^{2}$

(But don't forget the $3y^{3}$ !)

So it is:

$x^{2} + 3y^{3}$

Continue this process for the rest of them

The formula for any geometric sequence is an = a1 · rn - 1 , where a n represents the value of the n th term, a1 represents the

const2013 [10]

Answer:

an = -3·2^(n-1)

Step-by-step explanation:

The first term is a1 = -3.

The common ratio is r = -6/-3 = 2.

The given formula tells you the formula for this sequence is ...

an = -3·2^(n-1)
