Mathematics

Answer:

4% sales tax

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the original costs and subtract it from the price after sales tax.

$84.24-$81= $3.24

Divide 3.24 by 81

this gives you .04, now either multiply by 100 or move the decimal two places to the right to convert the decimal to a percentage.

\bf \begin{array}{rll} \stackrel{standard}{notation}&\stackrel{scientific}{notation}\\ \cline{1-2} 7000&7\times 10^3\\ 700&7\times 10^2\\ 70&7\times 10^1\\\\ \boxed{7}&\boxed{7\times 10^0}\\\\ 0.7&7\times 10^{-1}\\ 0.07&7\times 10^{-2}\\ 0.007&7\times 10^{-3} \end{array}

recall, for the scientific notation, it has to be using some power of 10, and the exponent of the base 10, is how many slots you're away from the <u>decimal point</u>.  0.007 uses 10⁻³ because 7.0 or 7. when we make it 0.007, we have to move the decimal point from in front of the 7 3 slots over to the left.  Likewise, the 7000 is using 10³, because we moved the dot from 7. to 7000. , namely 3 slots to the right.

the missing value is there in the middle, notice is "7".

well, we can say that 7 is using 10⁰, however most of the time the 10⁰ is omitted and we settle for 7 alone, however scientific notation wise, that'd be it.

Square Root
Oxana [17]

Answer:

1).(x+\frac{1}{4})^{2}=\frac{4}{9}

2).x+\frac{1}{4}=\pm \frac{2}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Here the given equation is x^{2}+\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{16}=\frac{4}{9}

We have to factor the perfect square trinomial on the left side of the equation

So left side of the equation is x^{2}+\frac{1}{2}x+\frac{1}{16}

= x^{2}+2\times \frac{1}{4}x+(\frac{1}{4})^{2}

=(x+\frac{1}{4})^{2}    since [(a+b)²= a²+b²+2ab]

Therefore the factorial form of the equation will be

(x+\frac{1}{4})^{2}=\frac{4}{9}

Now we have to solve the equation by applying square root property

\sqrt{(x+\frac{1}{4})^{2}}=\sqrt{\frac{4}{9}}

x+\frac{1}{4}=\pm \frac{2}{3}

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow |x^2+3x+2|

Either

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x^2+3x+2

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x^2+3x+2x

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x^2+5x+6

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow (x+2)(x+3)

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x

Or

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x^2+3x+2

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x^2+x-2

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x^2+2x-x-2

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow (x+2)(x-1)

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x

So

\\ \tt\hookrightarrow x\in (-3,1)
