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%.

In other words.....

= 10(2*9+10)

In the geometric progression 1, 2, 4… what term is 512?
Levart [38]

The next term is double the previous term, so that the n-th term is given recursively by

\begin{cases}a_1=1\\a_n=2a_{n-1}&\text{for }n>1\end{cases}

This rule tells us that

a_2=2a_1

a_3=2a_2=2^2a_1

a_4=2a_3=2^3a_1

and so on, with the explicit rule

a_n=2^{n-1}a_1=2^{n-1}

for n\ge1.

If 512 is the k-th term in the sequence, then

512=2^{k-1}\implies\log_2512=\log_22^9=\log_22^{k-1}\implies9=k-1\implies k=10
