Answer:

The family paid $55.12 in sales tax. TOTAL= $148.82 + $55.12

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>IMPORTANT FORMULA: To convert a percent to a number, you need to divide by 100. </u>

Therefore, 8% = 8/100 = 4/50 = 2/25

The family paid a total of $689 without sales tax or tips.

8% of $689 would equal the amount that the family paid for sales tax.

We already found what 8% is equal to and keep in mind that the word "of" means multiplication.

2/25 * $689 = sales tax

$55.12 = sales tax  

PART B) Now we have to find the total amount the family paid.

We have to add $689 with sales tax and tips.

We have to find tips.

Using the formula <u>To convert a percent to a number, you need to divide by 100. </u>

20% = 20/100 = 2/10 = 1/5

1/5 * ($689 + $55.12) = tips

tips = $148.82

TOTAL= $148.82 + $55.12

F(x)=2x^2+4x-16<br> g(x)=4x^2-16<br> Find (f/g)(x).
Nastasia [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

(\frac{f}{g} )(x) = \frac{2x^{2} +4x-16}{4x^{2} -16}

2x²+4x -16 =  2(x²+2x-8); factor 2

                  = 2(x+4)(x-2) ;factor the quadratic equation

4x²-16  = 4(x²-4) ; factor 4

            =4(x²- 2²) ; rewrite 4 as 2²

           = 4(x-2)(x+2); now use the difference of two squares a²-b²=(a-b)(a+b)

so now we have:

(\frac{f}{g}) (x) = \frac{2(x+4)(x-2)}{4(x-2)(x+2)} ; simplify (x-2) from numerator and denominator

                                  and 2/4 as 1/2

(\frac{f}{g}) (x) = \frac{(x+4)}{2(x+2)}

Use the T-table below to determine 3 solutions to this equation: y = 2x
Jet001 [13]
The table is attached as a figure

The given equation is ⇒⇒⇒⇒ y = 2x
To solve this equation, we need to pick numbers from the table then this number will be substituted into the equation to find y
we need 3 solutions . so, we need to pick 3 numbers of x
From the table, let us choose x = 0
y = 2x
y = 2 * (0)
y = 0

From the table, let choose second value of x such as x = 1
y = 2 * (1)
y = 2

From the table, let choose third value of x such as x = -1
y = 2 * (-1)
y = -2

So, the picked three solutions are
y = 0  at   x = 0
y = -2  at  x = -1
y = 2 at  x = 1
