Answer:

Sales tax

Step-by-step explanation:

You might have like 3% sales tax which is 3 percent of the original price added back onto it.

Sales tax is a tax that is put onto wanted and gourmet things, so chocolate isn't a needed item in life, so you have sales tax on it. On something like bread or meat, there might not be sales tax since you need food to survive. If something cost $100, and there is 3% sales tax, you will pay 103 dollars since 0.03 of 100 is 3.

The equation of a circle is (x + 6)^2 + (y - 4)^2 = 16. The point (-6, 8) is on the circle.

pantera1 [17]

Answer:

y = 8 is the equation of tangent.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the tangent to the circle at (-6,8) is of the form:

y = mx + c

where m is the slope of the tangent and c is the y-intercept.

The point (-6,8) lies on the circle and the tangent line as well.

Hence (-6,8) satisfies the line equation:

8 = m(-6) + c ⇒ c-6m = 8 -------------1

We know that slope of two perpendicular lines are related as:

$m_{1}\times m_{2}=-1$

At any point on the circle, the normal line at a point is always perpendicular to the tangent line at that point.

Hence :

$m_{normal} \times m_{tangent}=-1$

We can find the slope of the normal at point (-6,8) as it passes through the centre of the circle (-6,4) by using the two-points formula for slope.

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

$=\frac{8-4}{-6+6}$

= ∞

Slope of the normal is infinity and hence slope of tangent is -1/∞ = 0

Hence m=0

Putting m=0 in equation 1 we get:

c = 8

The equation of tangent line at (-6,8) is:

y = 8

What is the value of t in the equation t+12=30 ?

masha68 [24]

<span>Simplifying X + 12 = 30
Reorder the terms: 12 + X = 30
Solving 12 + X = 30
Solving for variable 'X'.
Move all terms containing X to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '-12' to each side of the equation. 12 + -12 + X = 30 + -12
Combine like terms: 12 + -12 = 0 0 + X = 30 + -12 X = 30 + -12
Combine like terms: 30 + -12 = 18 X = 18
Simplifying X = 18</span>

An auto mechanic converts a metric part to 0.492 in. The part comes only in fractional sizes given to the nearest 64th of an inc

tatuchka [14]

Answer:

the closest part the mechanic can chose is 0.5 inch

Step-by-step explanation:

fractional sizes given to the nearest 64th of an inch = 1/64 = 0.0156

the closest size to 0.492in = 0.492 + 0.0156 = 0.5076 inches

approximately, the closest part the mechanic can chose is 0.5 inch
