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%

Sebastian solved the radical equation y + 1 = but did not check his solution. (y + 1)2 = y2 + 2y + 1 = –2y – 3 y2 + 4y + 4 = 0 (

Softa [21]

Answer:

There are no true solutions to the equation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct equation is

$y+1=\sqrt{-2y-3}$

Solve for y

squared both sides

$(y+1)^2=(-2y-3)$

$(y^2+2y+1)=(-2y-3)$

$y^2+2y+1+2y+3=0$

$y^2+4y+4=0$

$(y+2)(y+2)=0$

$y=-2$

Verify

substitute the value of y in the original expression

$-2+1=\sqrt{-2(-2)-3}$

$-1=1$ ----> is not true

therefore

There are no true solutions to the equation.

Question in pic, will mark brainliest.

bulgar [2K]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider triangles ABC and DEC. In these triangles,

$\overline{BC}\cong \overline {EC}$ - given
$\overline{AC}\cong \overline {DC}$ - given;
$\angle ACB\cong \angke DCE$ as vertical angles.

So,

$\triangle ABC\cong \triangle DEC$ by SAS postulate (two sides and angle between these sides of one triangle are congruent to two sides and angle between these sides of another triangle, so triangles are congruent).

Congruent triangles have congruent corresponding parts, hence,

$\overline{BA}\cong \overline{ED}$

Need help with this asappppp

kirill [66]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

x = 2 is a vertical line; all values of y are possible.

y ≤ -3 is a region which includes -3 and all numbers less than -3.

So: draw a light line x = 2. Then draw a dark line at y = -3. Now darken the line x = 2 for (-infinity, -3].
