Melissa wants to buy a new pair of shoes that have an original price of $45. Melissa has a coupon for 20 percent off to use on them, which amounts to a discount of $9. If sales tax is 9 percent on the final price of the shoes, how much tax will she need to pay? $3.24
$4.05
$4.86
$4.95

$3.24

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we subtract the $9 from the $45, so that equals $36

9% of the 36% is added to the final price as tax

36 x 0.09 = 3.24

45-9=36

what we could do is first find out how much 1% is, 36÷1=0.36.

so 0.34×9=3.24

the final answer is 3.24

connie < felicia < stew

step-by-step explanation:

stew:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

    = (2650-795)/(10-3)

    = 1855/7

connie:

we need to find the slope

m = (y2-y1)/ (x2-x1)

we have two points (0,0) and (4,800)

m = (800-0)/(4-0)

  m = 800/4

felicia:

260 words per minute

200< 260 < 265

connie < felicia < stew

2/3

step-by-step explanation:

the slope of a line is equal to the rise/run. in this case the line rises 2 units for every +3 units it moves
