Answer:

The tax is 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Take the final price and subtract the original price

513-475 = 38

Divide by the original price

38/475 =.08

Change to percent form

The tax is 8%

The tax price is 8%

513 - 475 = 38

38/475 = 0.08

To check your work.

475 x 0.08 = 38

475 + 38 = 513

Meaning the answer is 8%

1) -10m(-3 +3m) – 5(8m – 6)

Juliette [100K]

- 30m^2 - 10m + 30

distribute your negative 10, you will first get 30m, then - 30m^2.

next distribute the negative 5, you will get - 40m, then 30.

combine like terms, and make sure its in standard form, - 30m^2 - 10m + 30

A semicircle has the radius of 2 4/5. What is its area? leave your answers in term of π

Ratling [72]

Answer:

$11\dfrac{13}{25}\pi$

Step-by-step explanation:

r = Radius of semicircle = $2\dfrac{4}{5}=\dfrac{24}{5}\ \text{units}$

Area of semicircle is given by

$A=\dfrac{\pi r^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{\pi \left(\dfrac{24}{5}\right)^2}{2}\\\Rightarrow A=\dfrac{288}{25}\pi=11\dfrac{13}{25}\pi\ \text{sq. units}$

The area of the semicircle is $11\dfrac{13}{25}\pi\ \text{sq. units}$ .

- 2x – 117 = = 10x + 59

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

$\huge\boxed{x=-\dfrac{44}{3}=-14\dfrac{2}{3}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$-2x-117=10x+59\qquad|\text{add 177 to both sides and subtract}\ 10x\ \text{from both sides}\\\\-2x-10x-117+117=10x-10x+59+117\\\\-12x=176\qquad|\text{divide both sides by (-12)}\\\\\dfrac{-12x}{-12}=\dfrac{176}{-12}\\\\x=-\dfrac{176:4}{12:4}\\\\x=-\dfrac{44}{3}$
