An item costs 340 before tax, and the sales tax is 20.40.

Mathematics
1 answer:
Sonbull [250]3 years ago
8 0

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).

Derick says "bruh" 400 times in 5 days, and he also says "bruh" 925 times in 12 days. What is the rate of change?
Oduvanchick [21]

Answer:

The answer is 75.

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change = Δy/Δx

y^2 -  y^1/x^2 - x^1

925 - 400/12 - 5 = 525/7 = 75
