A flashlight costs $12.00. The sales tax is 6%. What is the amount of the sales tax?

Answers

Answer 1
Answer: 12.00x0.06, which is 0.72, so the sales tax is 72 cents. Basically, what you do to answer these kinds of questions is divide the percentage by 100 (6/100=0.06), because the percentage is out of 100%. Then you multiply that number by the price to get the sales tax. If you wanted to find the total price, add the tax you found to the original price ( in this case would give us $12.72 )

Hope this helps!

The first three steps for solving the quadratic equation by completing the square are shown. Fill in the missing number in the last step.9x2 +54x = 7

9(x2 + 6x) = 7

9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 7 + ?

Answers

Completing the square is done as follows:

1. Write the equation in a way that the constants are in the right side while the terms with x are on the left. 
9x2 +54x = 7

2. Make sure that the coefficient of the x^2 term is 1.
9(x2 + 6x) = 7

3. Adding a term to both sides that will complete the square in the left side. This is done by dividing the coefficient of the x term by 2 and squaring it. Note: The same amount should be added to the right side to balance the equation.
9(x2 + 6x + 9) = 7 + 81

9(x+3)^2 = 88

Answer:

The answer is 81 guys.

What is T = 3U/E solve for U

Answers

To solve for U in the equation T = 3U/E, you need to isolate U alone on one side of the equation. To do this, first multiply both sides of the equation by E, to get TE= 3U. Then divide both sides of the equation by 3 to get TE/3 = U. This provides the correct answer: U = TE/3.
