11. The sales tax rate is 6.9%

Mathematics
1 answer:
Norma-Jean [14]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

40.1%

Step-by-step explanation:

I am assuming that 192 is in 100%.

100% = 192

I then represent the value that we are looking for with x.

x% = 77

By dividing both equations (100% = 192 and x% = 77) and remembering that both left hand sides of BOTH equations have the percentage unit (%).

\frac{100}{x} = \frac{77}{192}

Now, of course, we take the reciprocal, or inverse, of both sides:

\frac{x}{100} = \frac{7}{192}

x = 40.1%

Thus making the answer: 40.1% of 192 is 77.

Part of a book fell out. The first page of this part has number 143. The last page has a number written with the same digits. Ho
Gnom [1K]

Answer:

142 pages

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are

First page of part of the book available = 143

The last is numbered with the digits 143

Since the book is said to have been split into two parts with, we have that one part of the book starts from the beginning, while the other part continue from the first part stops

Number on the pages on the first part = from 1 to number on the first page on the second part - 1

Hence, the part of the book available is the second part and the number of pages in the first part = 1 to 142 or 142 pages.

Use what you know about translations of functions to analyze the graph of the function f(x) = (0.5)x−5 + 8. You may wish to grap
IrinaVladis [17]

Answer:

The Translation is 5 units to the right and 8 units up

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets talk about some transformation

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the right  

 by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x - h)

- If the function f(x) translated horizontally to the left  

 by h units, then the new function g(x) = f(x + h)

- If the function f(x) translated vertically up  

 by k units, then the new function g(x) = f(x) + k

- If the function f(x) translated vertically down  

 by k units, then the new function g(x) = f(x) – k

* Now lets solve the problem

∵ The parent function is y = (0.5)^x

∵ f(x) = (0.5)^x - 5 + 8 after translation

- The x in the first function is (x - 5) in the second function

∴ There is a horizontal translation to the right 5 units

- the first function is (0.5)^x in the second function y = (0.5)^x - 5 + 8

∴ There is a vertical translation up 8 units

* The Translation is 5 units to the right and 8 units up

- Look to the attached graph to more understand

- The purple graph is y = (0.5)^x

- The black graph is f(x) = (0.5)^x-5 + 8

- To check the answer take a point from the y = (0.5)^x as (0 , 1), the

 image of this point on f(x) is (5 , 9)

-The point (0 , 1) is shifted 5 units to the right and 8 units up

∴ Its x- coordinate move from 0 to 5, y- coordinate move from 1 to 9

The price of the box of 10 markers is $7. The price of the box of 24 markers is $14. All prices without tax, and the price of th
hichkok12 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let x represent the number of markers.

Let y represent the cost for x boxes of markers.

If we plot y on the vertical axis and x on the horizontal axis, a straight line would be formed. The slope of the straight line would be

Slope, m = (14 - 7)/(24 - 10)

m = 7/14 = 0.5

The equation of the straight line can be represented in the slope-intercept form, y = mx + c

Where

c = intercept

m = slope

To determine the intercept, we would substitute x = 24, y = 14 and m = 0.5 into y = mx + c. It becomes

14 = 0.5 × 24 + c = 12 + c

c = 14 - 12

c = 2

The equation would be

y = 0.5x + 2
