Heather paid $2,022.30 for a computer. If the price paid includes a 7% sales tax, which if the following equation can be used to
determine the price of the computer after tax?
(Let x represent the cost of the computer and y represent the total cost after tax.)
(Let x represent the cost of the computer and y represent the total cost after tax.)

Answer:
D)
Step-by-step explanation:
The Total cost, price plus taxes, will given by
1) Dividing the tax 7 by 100, and write it in its decimal form:
2) Add the number 1, and make it a constant
This function fits to calculate the total cost after a 7% tax. In this case just plug $2,022.30 for x, then solve for y to have the total cost.

Answer:
Non-proportional; the rate of change is $40/hour
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
A relationship between two variables, x, and y, represent a proportional variation if it can be expressed in the form or
In a proportional relationship the constant of proportionality k is equal to the slope m of the line <u>and the line passes through the origin</u>
Let
x -----> the number of hours
y ----> The total charge in dollars
The equation of the line in slope intercept form is equal to
where
m is the slope
b is the y-intercept
we have
substitute
This relationship is not proportional, because the line not passes through the origin
therefore
Non-proportional; the rate of change is $40/hour
