1. your state charges 5% sales tax on nonfood items. you're buying a light bulb for $3.00, cereal for $2.50, and an orange for $.50. what will be the grand total of your bill?

The total bill will be $6.15.  

Step-by-step explanation:

The problem tells us that the 5% sales tax is only charged for non-food items.  For the three items purchased, only one is non-food which is the light bulb.  The cost of the light bulb is $3.00.  In order to find the total after adding 5% sales tax, we can take the cost and multiply by 1.05, which is the original cost plus the additional 5%.  3 x 1.05 = 3.15.  To find the total bill, you need to add the cost of the light bulb, after tax, plus the cost of cereal and an orange:  3.15 + 2.50 + 0.5 = $6.15.  

answer: a. 13/44

step-by-step explanation: judging by the information given to us, we are looking for experimental probability. we can see that 13 males have chosen chocolate ice cream. there are 44 ice creams in total (remember that the total is always the denominator). so our answer is 13/44.

1.3

step-by-step explanation:

3x2=6   9x+6

bring down the 6 on both sides

6+6=12

12= 9x

divide by 9

12/9 =

1.3 =x
