$3.18 in taxes
You make 7% a decimal which is 0.07 then times that by the original cost which is 45.45 so

Do 45.45 times 0.07 equals $3.18 for part 1

Given : Brandon buys a radio for $45.99 .sales tax rate is 7%.sales tax is a consumption tax imposed by the government on the sale of goods and services.
Let the price of Radio before the sales tax be $x. Sales tax on $x is 7% x.
Price before sales tax + Amount of sales tax= Cost of Radio.
x+7%x =45.99
Or x+0.07x=45.99
1.07x=45.99
Dividing both sides by 1.07.
x= 41.11
Cost of Radio before tax = $41.11
Sales tax paid = 43.99-41.11= 2.88
Tax paid = $2.90 (To nearest cent)

Ms. Reynolds has a system of 10 sprinklers that water her entire lawn. The sprinklers run one at a time, and each runs for the s

Flauer [41]

You are told that sprinklers run for the same amount of time. lets refer to this time as T.
you are told that 4 sprinkles run one at a time for 50 minutes total. that means that T should be 50/4 = 12.5 minutes = 12 minutes and 30 seconds

I don't want the answer, but I want to know how you got that answer.

Answer:

n = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

$4n+5n+15=5n+7n\\\\9n+15=12n\\\\9n+15-15=12n-15\\\\-3n=-15\\\\\frac{-3n=-15}{-3}\\\\ \boxed{n=5}$

Hope this helps.

. For each of these intervals, list all its elements or explain why it is empty. a) [a, a] b) [a, a) c) (a, a] d) (a, a) e) (a,

Eva8 [605]

Answer:

Elements are of the form

(i) $[a,a]=\{[x,y] : a\leq x\leq a, a\leq y\leq a; a\in \mathbb R\}$

(ii) $[a,b)=\{[x,y) :a\leq x$

(iii) $(a,a]=\{(x,y] :a$

(iv) $(a,a)=\{(x,y): a$

(v) (a,b) where a>b= $\{(x,y) : a>x>b,a>y>b;a>b,a,b \in \mathbb R\}$

(vi) [a,b] where a>b= $\{[x,y] : a\geq x\geq b,a\geq y\geq b;a>b,a,b \in \mathbb R\}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given intervals are,

(i) [a,a] (ii) [a,a) (iii) (a,a] (iv) (a,a) (v) (a,b) where a>b (vi) [a,b] where a>b.

To show all its elements,

(i) [a,a]

Imply the set including aa from left as well as right side.

Its elements are of the form.

$\{[a,a] : a\in \mathbb R\}=\{[0,0],[1, 1],[-1,-1],[2,2],[-2,-2],[3,3],[-3,-3],........\}$

Since there is a singleton element a of real numbers, this set is empty.

Because there is no increment so if $a\in \mathbb R$ then the set [a,a] represents singleton sets, and singleton sets are empty so is [a,a].

(ii) [a,a)

This means given interval containing a by left and exclude a by right.

Its elements are of the form.

$[ 1, 1),[-1,-1),[2,2),[-2,-2),[3,3),[-3,-3),........$

Since there is a singleton element a of real numbers withis the set, this set is empty.

Because there is no increment so if $a\in \mathbb R$ then the set [a,a) represents singleton sets, and singleton sets are empty so is [a.a).

(iii) (a,a]

It means the interval not taking a by left and include a by right.

Its elements are of the form.

$( 1, 1],(-1,-1],(2,2],(-2,-2],(3,3],(-3,-3],........$

Since there is a singleton element a of real numbers, this set is empty.

Because there is no increment so if $a\in \mathbb R$ then the set (a,a] represents singleton sets, and singleton sets are empty so is (a,a].

(iv) (a,a)

Means given set excluding a by left as well as right.

Since there is a singleton element a of real numbers, this set is empty.

Its elements are of the form.

$( 1, 1),(-1,-1],(2,2],(-2,-2],(3,3],(-3,-3],........$

Because there is no increment so if $a\in \mathbb R$ then the set (a,a) represents singleton sets, and singleton sets are empty, so is (a,a).

(v) (a,b) where a>b.

Which indicate the interval containing a, b such that increment of x is always greater than increment of y which not take x and y by any side of the interval.

That is the graph is bounded by value of a and it contains elements like it we fixed a=5 then,

$(a,b)=\{(5,0),(5,1),(5,2).....\}$ e.t.c

So this set is connected and we know singletons are connected in $\mathbb R$ . Hence given set is empty.

(vi) [a,b] where $a\leq b$ .

Which indicate the interval containing a, b such that increment of x is always greater than increment of y which include both x and y.

That is the graph is bounded by value of a and it contains elements like it we fixed a=5 then,

$[a,b]=\{[5,0],[5,1],[5,2].....\}$ e.t.c

So this set is connected and we know singletons are connected in $\mathbb R$ . Hence given set is empty.
