Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To find out the sales tax rate, we divide the sales tax by the cost of the item. This will give us what percent of the cost of the item the sales tax is equal to.

So, 20.4 divided by 340 = 0.06

To convert to percent, we multiply 0.06 by 100=6. Therefore, the sales tax rate is 6%.

Check:

340 times 0.06 (the sales tax rate) is 20.4 (the sales tax).

What is the Area and Perimeter for tbe rectangle?

Amanda [17]

<h2>Given :-</h2>

length of rectangle = ( 4n-5 )

breadth of rectangle = ( 3n-2)

Area and perimeter of rectangle.

<h2>solution :-</h2>

by the question ,

We know the area of rectangle = length × breadth

Area = (4n -5) (3n-2)

$= {12n}^{2} - 8n - 15n + 10$

$= {12n}^{2} - 23n + 10$

now ,

perimeter = 2 ( length + breadth (

= 2 ( 4n-5 + 3n-2)

= 2 ( 7n-7)

= 14n -14

I hopes this helps.

Suppose that F(x)= x^2 and G(x) 4/5 x^2. Which statements best compares the graph of G(x) with the graph of F(x)?

34kurt

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

C. The graph of G(x) is the graph of F(x) compressed vertically.

If, for example, x = 1, then F(1) = 1^2 = 1, while G(1) = (4/5)(1^2) = 4/5.

Note that G(1) < F(1); we say G(x) is a vertical compression of F(x).
