Juan’s purchase before sales tax was added totaled $46.00. the total including tax was $48.76. what was the sales tax rate?

6%

Step-by-step explanation:

Sales tax is the tax added to the cost of item being purchased by a consumer. It is also know as tax on consumption and is a percentage of the cost of the commodity being purchased.

Purchase before sales tax = $46.00

Purchased price after tax addition = $48.76

Therefore tax added = $48.76 - $46.00

= $2.76

Tax rate applied = $2.76/$46.00

= 0.06 or 6%

sales tax rate = 6%

b. 6

step-by-step explanation:

we are given the table representing an exponential function.

we can see from the table that, as x is increasing, the value of y is increasing in the power of 6.

i.e. the following relation is obtained,

x = 1, y = 6

x = 2, y = 36 =

x = 3, y = 216 =

x = 4, y = 1296 =

x = 5, y = 7776 =

so, the geometric series obtained is .

thus, the common ratio is given by = = 6.

hence, the common ratio is 6.

an

y = 6x -3y -12

y +3y +12 = 6x

=> . x = { 2y / 3 +2 } this is equation of line in terms of x

=> . if line meets the x-axis the co-ordinates of meeting point would be ( x , 0 )

=> . x = 2 ( 0 ) / 3 + 2

=> . x = 2

so, the point is ( 2 , 0 )
