Answer:
2/3 and -3 are correct hope it helps
12.5 - 8.5 = 4
4/12.5 = 0.32
0.32 • 100 = 32
Answer: 32%
The sales receipt for the purchase includes the sales tax
- The sales tax is 6%
- The price at the top is $7.50
- The original price at the top is $12.50
<h3>How to determine the percent of sales tax?</h3>
The sales tax is calculated as:
Percentage sales tax * (Sum of Items subjected to tax) = Sales tax.
So, we have:
T * (3 + 0.5) = 0.21
Evaluate the sum
T * (3.5) = 0.21
Divide both sides by 3.5
T = 6%
Hence, the sales tax is 6%
<h3>The price at the top</h3>
The price (p) at the top is calculated using:
p = 13 - 3 - 2 - 0.5
Evaluate the difference
p = 7.5
Hence, the price at the top is $7.50
<h3>The original price at the top</h3>
60% of the original price (P) is p.
So, we have:
60% * P = p
Substitute 7.5 for p
60% * P = 7.5
Divide both sides by 60%
P = 12.5
Hence, the original price at the top is $12.50

Do you have a calculator? If you do then 7/8 is 0.875 and 8/9 is 0.8 recurring.
For 7/8 and 8/9 you need to find the LCM of the denominators which in this case is 72, multiple 7/8 by 9 and 8/9 by 8 (multiply the top and the bottom by the number). This gives 63/72 and 64/72. So 8/9 is bigger.
0.98 is 0.98/1 so if you multiply that by 8 even without a calculator you'll know that it will be more than 7 so the fraction itself is bigger than 7/8, and the same for 8/9.
So the sequence will be 7/8, 8/9, 0/98.

↪LINEAR EQUATIONS..
↪Since the equation given is
↪2x + 3y = 12
↪and the point given is (_,8)
to find the coordinate X or the abssicssa
↪we substitute the value of y = 8
↪therefore. ,, 2x +3 (8) =12
↪=》 2x + 24 = 12 =》 2x = 12-24 =》 2x = -12 =》 x = -6
↪thus , X = -6
↪points = ( -6 ,8)
