2.94 / 42.00 = 0.07 = 7%

0.07(58.00) = 4.06
58.00 + 4.06 = 62.06

He would pay $4.06 in sales tax and $62.06 in total.

x and 4x are supplementary to each other, meaning they add up to 180. So your equation is 180=5x. Divide both sides by 5 to get 36=x.

Answer: The margin of error is 0.041.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

n = 1010

x = 515

So, it becomes $\hat{p}=\dfrac{x}{n}=\dfrac{515}{1010}=0.51$

At 99% level of confidence ,

z = 2.58

So, Margin of error would be

$z\sqrt{\dfrac{\hat{p}(1-\hat{p}}{n}}\\\\=2.58\sqrt{\dfrac{0.51\times (1-0.51)}{1010}}\\\\=2.58\times \sqrt{\dfrac{0.51\times 0.49}{1010}}\\\\=2.58\times 0.0157\\\\=0.041$

Hence, the margin of error is 0.041.
