Step-by-step explanation:
Here is the answer for the unkown n(k+m)
STEP 1:
find the sales tax (decimal form)
x= sales tax
Cost + (Cost * Sales Tax)= Total
plug in known numbers
$9.40 + ($9.40 * x)= $9.87
9.40 + 9.40x= 9.87
subtract 9.40 from both sides
9.40x= 0.47
divide both sides by 9.40
x= 0.47/9.40
x= 0.05 sales tax decimal form
STEP 2:
find sales tax percentage
= 0.05 * 100
or move decimal to the right two decimal places
= 5% sales tax percent form
ANSWER: The sales tax is 5% (or 0.05 in decimal form)

Answer:
The correct option is B
(-1)(1/2)(-1)(1)
Step-by-step explanation:
First thing to notice is that there is are two brackets with negative values, which means that the result must also be positive (or have two brackets with negative values).
Looking at the options, we can screen out options A and D, they have three brackets with negative values, and can't be chosen.
It is now between options B and C.
Option B, by inspection is simply 1/2
Option C is 12/4 = 3
The problem itself is 12/35
12/24 = 1/2
12/36 = 1/3
Since 12/35 is about 1/3, it is closer to 1/2 than 3, so 1/2 is the best option.
