Answer: $17.85
Step-by-step explanation:
The tax on the T-shirt is 5% and the price is $17.
To find the after-tax cost, first find the tax amount:
= 5% * 17
= $0.85
Then add this tax amount to the price to find the after-tax amount:
= 17 + 0.85
= $17.85
What are you asking for? Conversions? or a statistical analysis (i.e. mean, median, etc.)?
It would be a completely false statement to say that English economist Thomas R. Malthus predicted that there would not be any problems resulting from population growth. He predicted just the opposite of what is being written in the question. The correct option among all the options that are given in the question is the second option.
Answer
Choice D
Company 2 is greater in avg rate of change by $750
=======================================
Explanation:
Average rate of change is the same as slope through two points. The two points are the endpoints of the interval.
The x values we'll use is x = 0 and x = 12 since it constitutes the first 12 years (12-0 = 12)
For company 1, if x = 0 and x = 12, then y = 12000 and y = 30000 respectively. The two points (0,12000) and (12,30000) are on the graph for company 1
The slope of the line through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (30000-12000)/(12-0)
m = 18000/12
m = 1500
Over the first twelve years, the average rate of change for company 1 is 1500
For company 2, the points (0,15000) and (12,42000) are on the graph
The slope of the line through these two points is
m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m = (42000-15000)/(12-0)
m = (27000)/(12)
m = 2250
Over the first twelve years, the average rate of change for company 2 is 2250
Now find the difference in the slopes
2250-1500 = 750
Company 2's rate of change is larger by $750
So that's why the answer is choice D. Over this timespan, company 2 is growing faster on average compared to company 1
