A local city collects 8% sales tax. If the total purchase was $216.00, then how much was collected for sales tax?

Answer:

x = 15.8

Step-by-step explanation:

let the number be x

according to the question equation is

x*5 - 2 = 77

5x - 2 = 17

5x = 77 + 2

5x = 79

x = 79/5

x = 15.8

Answer:

5x - 2 = 77

x = 15.8

Step-by-step explanation:

a number - x

times 5 - 5x

minus 2 - 5x - 2

equals 77 - 5x - 2 = 77

77 + 2 = 79

79 ÷ 5 = 15.8

5(15.8) - 2 = 77

Answer:

3

Step-by-step explanation:

base = 4-1

= 3

height = 3-1

= 2

Area = 1/2 (b)(h)

= 1/2 (3)(2)

= 3

therefore the answer is 3 square unit

Step-by-step explanation:

[tex]x + 3y = 1 \\ - 3x - 3y = - 15 \\ x = 1 - 3y \\ - 3(1 - 3y) - 3y = - 15 \\ - 3 + 9y - 3y = - 15 \\ - 3 + 6y = - 15 \\ 6y = - 15 + 3 \\ 6y = - 12 \\ y = - 2[/tex]

[tex]y = - 2 \\x = 1 - 3y \\ x = 1 - 3( - 2) \\ x = 1 + 6 \\ x = 7[/tex]

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangles do have equal angles and proportional sides, because they are bot right triangles formed on parallel lines.

:)ur welcome

Answer: Choice B

Yes. Right triangles formed on parallel lines have proportional side lengths and congruent angles.

====================================================

Explanation:

Parallel lines always have equal slopes, but different y intercepts.

Recall that slope = rise/run.

The "rise" is the vertical portion of the triangle, while the "run" is the horizontal portion.

So let's say we had a slope of rise/run = 2/3. This means rise = 2 and run = 3.

If we had something like rise/run = 4/6, then that reduces to 2/3, showing that 4/6 = 2/3. They are the same slope.

We can use the SAS similarity theorem to prove the triangles formed in the diagram are congruent based on what is discussed above.

Because the triangles are similar, this means the corresponding angles are congruent. One such pair is the pair of right angles shown.

Answer:

y = 360 (1.03)^x

Step-by-step explanation:

Amount in account = principle * (1+ rate) ^ time

When the interest is annual

rate is in decimal form and time is in years

y = 360 ( 1+.03) ^x

y = 360 (1.03)^x

Answer:

The sum of two non-zero even numbers is even and greater than the addends

Step-by-step explanation:

The solution to the whole number equation is sum of two non-zero even numbers is even and greater than the addends

Equations are mathematical statements with two algebraic expressions flanking the equals (=) sign on either side.

It demonstrates the equality of the relationship between the expressions printed on the left and right sides.

Coefficients, variables, operators, constants, terms, expressions, and the equal to sign are some of the components of an equation. The "=" sign and terms on both sides must always be present when writing an equation.

Given data ,

Let the equation be represented as A

Now , the value of A is

Substituting the values in the equation , we get

Let the first number be p

Let the second number be q

Now , the values of p and q are even

So , when p = 2 and q = 4

The sum of two non-zero even numbers is even and greater than the addends

p + q > q   be equation (1)

p + q > p   be equation (2)

2 + 4 > 4

2 + 4 > 2

6 > 4 and 6 > 2

Hence , the equation is true and sum of two non-zero even numbers is even and greater than the addends

C. 8

Step-by-step explanation:

Options

A. 5

B. 6

C. 8

D. Can't say without knowing the number of participants

Number of sweet distributed = Total number of sweets - left over sweets

= 1025 sweets - 1 left over sweet

= 1024 sweets

Number of participants = Number of sweets distributed / number of sweets given to each participant

A. 5

Number of participants = Number of sweets distributed / number of sweets given to each participant

= 1024 /5 Sweets

= 204.8 participant

B. 6

Number of participants = Number of sweets distributed / number of sweets given to each participant

= 1024/6

= 170.67 participant

C. 8

Number of participants = Number of sweets distributed / number of sweets given to each participant

= 1,024/8

= 128 participant

D. Can't say without knowing the number of participants

From the options given, the number of sweets given away to each participant could be 8

Number of sweets given to each participants is 32.

Since, A sports teacher had 1025 sweets and he had one sweet left after distributing.

So, number of sweets he distributing is, [tex]1025-1=1024[/tex]

Since, distributing these equally amongst all the participants

Therefore, number of sweets given to each participants is, [tex]=\sqrt{1024}=32[/tex]

So, total number of participants is 32 and number of sweets given to each participants is 32.

Answer:

There are 5 sides in the polygon.

Total perimeter of the polygon is 12.5 cm and it is a regular polygon.

Each side of the polygon is 2.5 cm.

So total number of sides is: Total perimeter of the polygon / Length of each side = 12.5 cm/ 2.5 cm = 5

Hence, the polygon has 5 sides and it is a regular pentagon.

Answer:

The first one is B. 11.75

The second one is A. 4

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find how many liters (L) of paint he used you need to do 2.5*5.5=13.75 Then to find out how much he has left you do 25-13.75=11.75 So your answer is 11.75.

The second one you have to do the reverse. So since it says 4*_=48, you do 48÷4=_=12. Then since it says 12*1/3=_ You can do 12÷3=_=4 So your answer is 4.

Answer:

the answer is 5 percent

Step-by-step explanation:

The probability of experiencing heartburn is 5 percent. Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

Probability can be defined as the ratio of the number of favorable outcomes to the total number of outcomes of an event.

Given that, the probability of experiencing a headache is 5 percent and the probability of experiencing both a headache and heartburn is 2 percent.

Let Event A: Headache and Event B: Heartburn.

P(A)=0.05, P(A∩B)=0.02

The probability of experiencing a headache or heartburn is 8 percent, hence:

P(A∪B)=0.08

Now, P(A∪B)=P(A)+P(B)-P(A∩B)

0.08=0.05+P(B)-0.02

P(B)=0.05 or 5%

Therefore, option B is the correct answer.

The graphs of f(x) and g(x) are given.

The graph of g(x) passes through the point (3,3).

To find:

The function g(x).

Solution:

From the given graph, it is clear that the graph of f(x) compressed vertically to get the graph of g(x). So,

[tex]g(x)=kf(x)[/tex]

Where, k is the stretch factor.
