The pythagorean theorem states that a^2+ b^2=c^2.
Final answer: None of the above
Ok so right now leave the x's alone. Now add/subtract the numbers without variables which would equal to 0 since -1+4 = 3 and 3-3 =0
now 7x+x =8x so 8x is answer
X =10.
First distribute the 2(2x-14) and get 4x-28.
x+2-4x-28. Subtract x from each side to get 2=3x-28.
Add 28 to both sides to equal 30=3x. Divide each side by 3 to get your final Answer, x=10.
You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427
When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.
To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7
So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%
