sales tax and purchase price: suppose the sales tax rate in a certain state is is 8% how much sales tax is charged on a new car if the purchase price is $11,900?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: To calculate the sales tax of an $11,900 purchase, we simply multiply the purchase prices by the sales tax rate.

8% is 8 parts of 100, which can be shown as a fraction with 8/100 or as a decimal with .08

Let's use the decimal in this case:

Sales Tax = purchase price x sales tax rate
Sales tax = 11,900 x .08
Sales tax = $952

So if the car was purchased at $11,900 in a state with an 8% sales tax rate, the sales tax would be $952 bringing the total cost of the car up to $12,852.

By what fraction name for 1 must 2/3 be multiplied to form a fraction with a denominator of 15

Answers

If you are asking what I think than it should be 5/5 because 3*5=15 so in that case the denominator would be 15 making the whole answer 10/15 although that could still be simplified to 2/3) (that's what happens when you multiply by one)

Or you may be asking 1/x forms a denominator of 15.
In this case you would still have 5 as your number (or really 1/5), if would just mean when they are multiplied together you would get 2/15 instead....

What is the answer to y=-5x+13

Answers

There is no answer. It is an equation and you can find y by literally following the procedure

if the equation is h= -2x^2 + 12x -10

how do I find the max height?

Answers

One other way to solve this question is finding the derivative

$h=-2x^2+12x-10$

$h'=-4x+12$

now we have to find when this function will be zero

$-4x+12=0$

$\boxed{\boxed{x=3}}$

now we just replace this value at our initial function

$h=-2x^2+12x-10$

$h_(max)=-2*(3)^2+12*3-10$

$h_(max)=-18+36-10$

$\boxed{\boxed{h_(max)=8}}$

The maximum height is the ordinate value of the vertex of the parabola, ie: yV

Calculating yV:

$y_V=(-\Delta)/(4a)\n \n y_V=-[(12^2-4*(-2)*(-10)])/(4*(-2))=(-(144-80))/(-8)=(-64)/(-8)=8$

The following table shows the length and width of two rectangles:Length Width
Rectangle A 3x + 2 2x - 1
Rectangle B x + 5 5x - 1

Which expression is the result of the perimeter of rectangle B minus the perimeter of rectangle A?
2x + 2
2x + 6
22x + 14
22x + 18

Answers

The perimeter of a rectangle is equal to two times the sum of the length and the width.
$P=2(l+w)$

Rectangle A:
$l=3x+2 \n w=2x-1 \n \nP_A=2(3x+2+2x-1)=2(5x+1)=10x+2$

Rectangle B:
$l=x+5 \n w=5x-1 \n \nP_B=2(x+5+5x-1)=2(6x+4)=12x+8$

The perimeter of rectangle B minus the perimeter of rectangle A:
$P_B - P_A=12x+8-(10x+2)=12x+8-10x-2=\boxed{2x+6}$

Answer:

2x+6

Suppose P is between M and N. If MN = 10, MP = x-3, and PN = x+1, what is the value of x?

Answers

MN = MP + PN

10 = (x - 3) + (x + 1)

10 = x + x - 3 + 1

10 = 2x - 2 (add 2 to each side)

12 = 2x (divide 2 from each side)

12/2 = x

6 = x
