Answer:
2/3 = 5/8
Step-by-step explanation:
If two figures are similar, then the ratio of its corresponding sides is equal and is called the scale factor
In this problem
2/3 = 5/8 -----> is not true
therefore
The figures are not similar
What we need to do with this problem is multiply the amount the computer costs ($350) by the tax rate (6%). To do this, we first need to convert the percentage to a decimal, so we divide the 6 given by 100, leaving us with .06. Next, we need to multiply the $350 by the .06, giving us $21 as the amount we should be paying for sales tax. So your answer should be 2) $21.00!
The total purchase price including sales tax will be $1449.6136
<em><u>Explanation</u></em>
Festus bought a computer at $736.34, Apple iPad at $249.99 and a printer at $381.23
So, the <u>total price of all three items</u>
dollar.
The sales tax rate is 6%. So, <u>the amount of sales tax</u>
dollar.
Thus, the total purchase price including sales tax will be: (1367.56 + 82.0536) dollar = 1449.6136 dollar
Q=M-2P/3
because in order to solve for a variable you have to get alone. Make sense?
