Given:
The formula for total cost is
where, p is the price of item and s is the sales tax rate (as a percent).
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14.
To find:
The the tax rate.
Solution:
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14. So,
Total cost (T) = $14.77
Price of item (p) = $14
Putting T=14.77 and p=14 in given formula, we get
Multiply both sides by 100.
Divide both sides by 14.
Therefore, the tax rate is 5.5%.
Answer:
is there any more number because there should a more then one number
* can you write the other number because i can't do it without the number or you can just take the picture of the whole things.
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: (-5,4)
When you reflect a point across the line y = x, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate change places. If you reflect over the line y = -x, the x-coordinate and y-coordinate change places and are negated (the signs are changed). the line y = x is the point (y, x).
The equivalence
means that n-5 is a multiple of 12.
that is
n-5=12k, for some integer k
and so
n=12k+5
for k=-1, n=-12+5=-7
for k= 0, n=0+5=5 (the first positive integer n, is for k=0)
we solve 5000=12k+5 to find the last k
12k=5000-5=4995
k=4995/12=416.25
so check k = 415, 416, 417 to be sure we have the right k:
n=12k+5=12*415+5=4985
n=12k+5=12*416+5=4997
n=12k+5=12*417+5=5009
The last k which produces n<5000 is 416
For all k∈{0, 1, 2, 3, ....416}, n is a positive integer from 1 to 5000,
thus there are 417 integers n satisfying the congruence.
Answer: 417
