Answer:

<em>The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

The procedure to add a percentage ratio p to a given quantity q is:

* Calculate the increase as i = p*q/100

* Add the increase to the original quantity to get the final quantity f=q + i

It's given the sales tax rate in New Mexico is p=5.125%. A pair of pants in New Mexico costs q=$30 before tax.

* The increase (tax) is i = (5.125*30)/100 = $1.54

* The price after tax is f = $30 + $1.54 = $31.54

The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54

If f(x) = 2x2 + 1 and g(x) = x2 – 7, find (f – g)(x).

nadya68 [22]

Answer: The required value is

$(f-g)(x)=x^2+8.$

Step-by-step explanation: The given functions are:

$f(x)=2x^2+1,\\\\g(x)=x^2-7.$

We are given to find the value of $(f-g)(x).$

We know that, if s(x) and t(x) are any two functions of a variable x, then we have

$(s-t)(x)=s(x)-t(x).$

Therefore, we have

$(f-g)(x)\\\\=f(x)-g(x)\\\\=(2x^2+1)-(x^2-7)\\\\=2x^2+1-x^2+7\\\\=x^2+8.$

Thus, the required value is

$(f-g)(x)=x^2+8.$

You have 15 pennies in your pocket. Of those pennies, 4 are Canadian. Suppose you pick a penny out of your pocket at random. Fin

vlada-n [284]

Answer:

11/15

Step-by-step explanation:

If 4 out of 15 are Canadian, the ratio of the probability of picking a Canadian is 4/15. That means that the probability of NOT picking a Canadian is the complement of 4/15 which is 11/15. Therefore, the probability of not picking a Canadian is the same thing as the probability of picking an American penny which is 11/15.
