What is the tax on an item that is $42.50 if the tax rate is 9%?

Answer:

The value of a=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the matrix

[tex]B=\begin{pmatrix}1\:&\:2\:\\ \:\:\:2\:&\:a\end{pmatrix}[/tex]

so solving the matrix B by taking its determinant to get the value a

[tex]\det \begin{pmatrix}1&2\\ 2&a\end{pmatrix}=0[/tex]

as according to determinant formula

[tex]\det \begin{pmatrix}a\:&\:b\:\\ c\:&\:d\:\end{pmatrix}\:=\:ad-bc[/tex]

 [tex]1\cdot \:a-2\cdot \:2=0[/tex]    

  [tex]a-4=0[/tex]

   [tex]a=4[/tex]          

Therefore, the value of a=4

Answer:

a = b = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

x² - 2x + 2 = ( x - a )² + b

x² - 2x + 2 = ( x² - 2x + 1) - 1 + 2 = (x - 1)² + 1

a = b = 1

Answer:

option 2. mean is larger than median.

Step-by-step explanation:

mean of the set = ( 88+81+93+85+98)/5

= 445/5

= 89

median of the set = 88

the mean of the set is greater than the median.

Answer:

Equation of line in Point Slope Form is [tex]\mathbf{y-2=-2(x-9)}[/tex]

Equation of line in Slope Intercept Form is: [tex]\mathbf{y=-2x+20}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to write equation of line having slope -2 and point (9,2)

a) Equation in Point Slope Form

The general equation of point slope form is: [tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)[/tex]

Where x₁ and y₁ are the points of line and m is slope.

x₁=9 and y₁=2 and m=-2

Putting values in formula and finding equation:

[tex]y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\\y-2=-2(x-9)[/tex]

So, Equation of line in Point Slope Form is [tex]\mathbf{y-2=-2(x-9)}[/tex]

b) Equation in Slope Intercept Form

The general equation of Slope Intercept Form is: [tex]y=mx+b[/tex]

where m is slope and b is y-intercept

Finding y-intercept using slope m=-2 and point(9,2)

[tex]y=mx+b\\2=-2(9)+b\\2=-18+b\\b=2+18\\b=20[/tex]

The equation in slope m=-2 and b=20 is:

[tex]y=mx+b\\y=-2x+20[/tex]

So, equation of line in Slope Intercept Form is: [tex]\mathbf{y=-2x+20}[/tex]

Answer:

Please check the explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Considering the expression

[tex]9i+2\left(7+3i\right)[/tex]

        [tex]a\left(b+c\right)=ab+ac[/tex]

so the expression becomes

[tex]=9i+2\cdot \:\:\:7+2\cdot \:\:\:3i[/tex]

Group like terms

[tex]=9i+14+6i[/tex]

Add similar elements: 9i+6i=15i

Answer:

The value of f(3)=12.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Average rate of change = 3.4

Interval: -2 < x < 3

f(-2) = 9

We need to find f(3)

The formula used to calculate Average rate of change is: [tex]Average \ rate \ of \ change=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}[/tex]

here we have a=-2 and b=3

Now finding f(3)

[tex]Average \ rate \ of \ change=\frac{f(b)-f(a)}{b-a}\\3.4=\frac{f(3)-f(-2)}{3-2} \\3.4=\frac{f(3)-9}{1}\\3.4=f(3)-9\\f(3)=3.4+9\\f(3)=12.4[/tex]

So, The value of f(3)=12.4

Answer:

200

Step-by-step explanation:

It's 200 because you would take the 1,000 and multiply it by the power of 3, which is 100,000. So therefore you would do the same thing with the 2, which 2 to the power of 3 is 200. There is your explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The expression x²+8 is equivalent to ( x + 2√2i) ( x - 2√2i).The correct option is D.

An expression is a statement consisting of variables, constants, and mathematical operators.

The expression x²+8 can be written as

( x )² - ( 2√2i)²

This is representing the binomial Identity

a² - b² = ( a+b) (a-b)

here a = x , b =2√2i

The expression can be written as

( x )² - ( 2√2i)² = ( x + 2√2i) ( x - 2√2i)

Therefore, The correct option is D.

Answer:

B. is your answer

Step-by-step explanation:

First you multiply both sides by "x" and you get

12x - 4 = 3x

now add 4 to both sides and you get

12x = 3x + 4

now subtract "3x" from both sides and you get

9x = 4

divide both sides by 9 and you get

x = 4/9

Answer:

6.63

Step-by-step explanation:

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

Explanation:

Let's complete the square

y = x^2 + 8x

y + 16 = x^2 + 8x + 16 .... adding 16 to both sides

y + 16 = (x+4)^2

y = 1(x+4)^2 - 16

We added 16 to both sides to allow the right hand side to factor into a perfect square.

The last line shown above is in the form y = a(x - h)^2 + k where

a = 1

h = -4

k = -16

Note the positive 'a' value indicates we have a minimum.

The vertex is (h,k) = (-4, -16)

The lowest y value possible is at the vertex.

So the smallest y value is y = -16.

This means the smallest possible value of x^2+8x is -16.

Answer:

5 yards = 15 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Following the formula that for every 1 yard we have 3 feet.

x = amount of yards

y = amount of feet per yard

z = amount of feet total

[tex]x * y = z[/tex]

Substitute:

[tex]5 * 3 = z[/tex]

[tex]15 =z[/tex]

Final answer:

5 yards = 15 feet

Answer:

x =2

x = -2

Step-by-step explanation:

(x - 2)(x + 2)(x^2 + 4) = 0

(x - 2) = 0

x = 0 + 2

x =  2

(x + 2) = 0

x = - 2

x = - 2

(x^2 + 4) = 0

x^2 = 4

x = [tex]\sqrt{4}[/tex]

x = 2
