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:
The quotient is : x+9
The remainder is : 13
Step-by-step explanation:
The question requires you to perform the long division method;
This will be;
start with the x term in x-2 and the first term in the function, x², to get x then multiply the x with x-2 to get x²-2x and perform the operation below;
x-2√x²+7x-5 -----------to first get x and then multiply x*[x-2]⇒x²-2x
- x²-2x+0 ------------perform subtraction of like terms
---------------------
9x-5 ----now divide this answer by x-2 ,starting with x and 9x
----------------------This will give , 9 then multiply 9 by x-2 to get 9x-18 and perform the subtraction operation as;
9x-5
- 9x-18
------------------------
13
So the answer will be; x+9 remainder 13
