Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the answer we can use proportion. We know that 4$ its 100% and 4.32 its 100% + taxes.

4$ ---------- 100%

4.32 -------- x

cross multiply now

4x=4.32*100%

4x=432%     /:4

x=108%

We know that 4.32 its 100% + taxes=108% so to get taxes we have to subtract 108-100.

108%-100%=8% - its the answer.

Answer:

8%

Step-by-step explanation:

$4 represents the sale price

4.32 - 4 =$ .32 represents the sale tax

Tax rate is the percentage $ .32 out of $4.

 4 is 100%

.32 is x%

Cross multiply to find x, and divide by 4

x= (.32·100) / 4

x = 8

The tax rate is 8%.

Answer:

The interest charged is $7.49.

After 29 days, Travis paid a total of $607.49

Step-by-step explanation:

Travis obtained a cash advance for $600.

The interest rate is 0.04305% per day.

The simple interest rate formula is given by:

I=Prt

Where <em>I</em> is the interest, <em>P</em> is the initial amount, <em>r</em> is the rate, and <em>t</em> is the time (in this case in days).

Our initial amount <em>P</em> is $600.

Our interest rate <em>r</em> is 0.04305% or (moving the decimal two places to the left) 0.0004305.

Since Travis repaid the loan after 29 days, our <em>t</em> is 29.

Hence, our interest is:

I=600(0.0004305)(29)=7.4907

So, the interest charged is about $7.49.

So, after 29 days, Travis paid a total of the original $600 plus an interest of $7.49 for a total of $607.49

Round to the nearest tenth if necessary. Find the distance between the two points. (–1, –8), (–4, –4) A)5 B)25 C)13 D)1
jeyben [28]

Answer: (a)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The points are (-1,-8) and (-4,-4)

The distance between two points (x_1,y_1),(x_2,y_2) is given by

d=\sqrt{\left(x_2-x_1\right)^2+\left(y_2-y_1\right)^2}

Apply the distance formula

\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{\left( -4+1\right)^2+\left( -4+8\right)^2}\\\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{(-3)^2+(4)^2}\\\Rightarrow d=\sqrt{9+16}\\\Rightarrow d=5\ \text{units}

Hence, option (a) is correct.
