The sales tax rate on the item = 8%

We know that the sales tax is nothing but the purchase price times the percentage of tax.

An item costs $430 before tax.

This means, the purchase price is 430 dollars.

The sales tax is $34. 40

To find: the sales tax rate as a percentage

First we find a ratio of the sales tax to the cost of the items before tax.

Sales tax / Pre-tax value of item = (34.40) / 430

Now we write a proportion where the pre-tax value is proportional to 100% and solve for the percentage of sales tax.

i.e., (34.40) / 430 = sales tax percent / 100

So, the sales tax percent  = 8%

Therefore, the sales tax is of 8%

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

x = 88.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Reference angle = 10°

Opposite = x

Adjacent = 500

Apply TOA:

Tan 10° = x/500

Multiply both sides by 500

500*Tan 10° = x

88.1634905 = x

x = 88.2 (nearest tenth)

The value of x is 7 and value of y is 8

Statistics is the discipline that concerns the collection, organization, analysis, interpretation, and presentation of data.

Given data set is {4, 6, x, y, 10}

The mean and the median are the same value.

The median is the middle value, which is x, and the mean is:

M = (4 + 6 + x + y + 10)/5

Then we have that:

(4 + 6 + x + y + 10)/5 = x

Now let's solve this:

(4 + 6 + x + y + 10) = 5x

20 + x + y = 5x

20 + y = 4x

And x and y are whole numbers. Then we can take x = 7 to get:

20 + y = 4*7

y = 28 - 20 = 8

Then we have x = 7 and y = 8.

Hence, the value of x is 7 and value of y is 8 in the data set 4 6 x y 10

Answer:

(f/g)x = (x - 3)/(2x - 3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Try and see if f(x) can be factored.

g(x) = (2x - 3) (2x + 3)

That means that perhaps f(x) has one of these two factors.

(2x   3)(x   3)

You want the 2x and 3 to multiply. The middle term has to be -, so when 2x and 3 multiply likely it is 3 that gives you the minus answer.

(2x + 3)(x - 3) should be the way f(x) factors, and it is.

f(x) / g(x) = (2x + 3) (x - 3)

                 (2x + 3)(2x - 3)

2x + 3 cancels. The answer is

(f/g)x = (x - 3)/(2x - 3)

About 516 students are right handed.

Step-by-step explanation:

Divide 600 by 7 to get 85.7143. Round up to 86. Multiply times 6.

Answer:

I'll setup the problem and leave you to solve it

Step-by-step explanation:

L = number of left-handed students

R = number of right-handed students

you have 2 equations

L + R = 600 (1)

R = 7 x L (2)

solve for L in equation 1

L = 600 - R

substitute L in equation 2

R = 7(600 -R)

multiplying and gathering like terms

8R= 4200

solve for R and you have your answer

There are 4 cassette tapes.

Given that,

Let x be the number of compact discs

Then 5 times the number of CD's= 5x and 10 less than 5 times the number of CDs is 5x-10

Therefore the number of cassettes is 5x-10

Now we are told that the ratio of cassettes to CDs which is

((5x-10)/x) equals 5/2 so our equation to solve is:

(5x-10)/x=5/2 multiply both sides by 2x to get rid of the fractions and we get:

2(5x-10)=5x

Further solving this equation, we get:

10x-20=5x

5x=20

x= 4 (number of compact discs)

Thus, there are in total 4 cassette tapes.

An equation in slope-intercept form of the amount of money saved after x weeks is y=21x+213.

The slope intercept form of a straight line is one of the most common forms used to represent the equation of a line. The slope intercept formula can be used to find the equation of a line when given the slope of the straight line and the y-intercept.

The standard form of the slope intercept form is y=mx+c.

Given that, after 17 weeks, you have $570, and after 29 weeks, you have $822.

Here, (17, 570) and (29, 822)

Substitute (x₁, y₁)=(17, 570) and (x₂, y₂)=(29, 822) in m=(y₂-y₁)/(x₂-x₁)

= (822-570)/(29-17)

= 252/12

= 21

Substitute, m=21 and (x, y)=(17, 570) in y=mx+c, we get

570=21×17+c

570=357+c

c=213

Substitute, m=21 and c=213 in y=mx+c, we get

y=21x+213

Therefore, an equation in slope-intercept form of the amount of money saved after x weeks is y=21x+213.

The length of ST is 16 units.

A line segment is a part of line having two endpoints and it is bounded by two distinct end points and contain every point on the line that is between its endpoint.

We have to given that;

Point P is the midpoint of ST.

SP = x + 4, and ST = 4x

Since, P is the midpoint of ST.

Hence, We get;

⇒ SP = PT

And, ST = 2 SP

Substitute all values we get;

⇒ 4x = 2 (x + 4)

⇒ 4x = 2x + 8

⇒ 4x - 2x = 8

⇒ 2x = 8

⇒ x = 4

Thus, The value of ST = 4x

                                  = 4×4

if a²+b²>c², the triangle is acute, if a²+b2²=c², the triangle is a right triangle,  and if a²+b²<c², the triangle is obtuse.

where a and b are the lengths of the two shorter sides of the triangle and c is the length of the longest side.

A right-angled triangle is a triangle with one of the angles at 90 degrees. A 90-degree angle is called a right angle, and hence the triangle with a right angle is called a right triangle.

An acute triangle has three angles that each measure less than 90°. In an acute-angled triangle, all three internal angles of the triangle are acute, that is, they measure less than 90°.

An obtuse triangle is a triangle with one angle that is greater than 90° degrees, it is not possible for a triangle to have more than one obtuse angle.

The system y = 3x + 4 and 6x - 2y = 8 has no solutions.

A system of equations is a set of equations with multiple variables. To determine the number of solutions for a system of equations, one can use the following methods: graphing, substitution, or elimination. In this case, we can use the elimination method by adding or subtracting the equations to eliminate one of the variables.

If we add the two equations, we get y = 3x + 4 + 6x - 2y = 8, which results in 3x + 4 = 8. This is an inconsistent equation and does not have any solutions. Therefore, the system y = 3x + 4 and 6x - 2y = 8 has no solutions.

This shows that the system is inconsistent, which means that there's no solution that satisfies both equations.
