Answer:

68 cents!

Step-by-step explanation:

9.95 * 0.068 = $0.6766.

Rounded to the nearest hundreth that is 0.68.

That means the tax rate rounds to 68 cents.

Answer:

0.68

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the tax is 6.8% of your total price, you need to multiple 9.95 x 0.068 (the decimal form of the percent) to get how much is being taxed. If you do that, that gives you 0.6766, which if you round it to the nearest hundredth, that's going to be 0.68. I hope this has helped you!

The owner of a cattle ranch would like to fence in a rectangular area of 3000000 m^2 and then divide it in half with a fence dow

Reika [66]

If you notice the picture below, the amount of fencing, or perimeter, that will be used will be 3w + 2l

now $\bf \begin{cases}
A=l\cdot w\\\\\
A=3000000\\
----------\\
3000000=l\cdot w\\\\
\frac{3000000}{w}=l
\end{cases}\qquad thus
\\\\\\
P=3w+2l\implies P=3w+2\left( \cfrac{3000000}{w} \right)\implies P=3w+\cfrac{6000000}{w}
\\\\\\
P=3w+6000000w^{-1}\\\\
-----------------------------\\\\
now\qquad \cfrac{dP}{dw}=3-\cfrac{6000000}{w^2}\implies \cfrac{dP}{dw}=\cfrac{3w^2-6000000}{w^2}
\\\\\\
\textit{so the critical points are at }
\begin{cases}
0=w^2\\\\
0=\frac{3w^2-6000000}{w^2}
\end{cases}$

solve for "w", to see what critical points you get, and then run a first-derivative test on them, for the minimum

notice the $0=w^2\implies 0=w$ so. you can pretty much skip that one, though is a valid critical point, the width can't clearly be 0

so.. check the critical points on the other
