Given:
The formula for total cost is
where, p is the price of item and s is the sales tax rate (as a percent).
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14.
To find:
The the tax rate.
Solution:
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14. So,
Total cost (T) = $14.77
Price of item (p) = $14
Putting T=14.77 and p=14 in given formula, we get
Multiply both sides by 100.
Divide both sides by 14.
Therefore, the tax rate is 5.5%.
Answer:
144°
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the measure of the central angle of the regular pentagon
Divide 360 degrees by 5 (the number of sides)
Let
c----> the center of the pentagon
we know that
m∠ECA=72°
m∠ACB=72°
therefore
m∠ECB=m∠ECA+m∠ACB
substitute the values
m∠ECB=72°+72°=144°
The measure of angle ECB is equal to the degrees that the pentagon rotate
Answer:
see explanation
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the cosine and tangent ratios in the right triangle
cos41° = =
=
Multiply both sides by VX
VX × cos41° = 7 ( divide both sides by cos41° )
VX = ≈ 9.3
-----------------------------------------------------------------------
tan41° = =
=
Multiply both sides by 7
7 × tan41° = WX, thus
WX ≈ 6.1
-------------------------------------------------------------------------
The sum of the 3 angles in a triangle = 180°
Subtract the sum of the given angles from 180° for ∠ X
∠ X = 180° - (90 + 41)° = 180° - 131° = 49°
