Sasha pose la question : Hello, I recently stumbled upon this question and I haven't been able to figure it out.
Why is the inverse of y=x(x-2) not a function?
Suggest a domain restriction which would ensure that the inverse is a function.
Thank You :) Penny Nom lui répond. |

A sales tax of 7% |
2016-12-07 |
![](/images/transparent.gif) |
Kenneth pose la question : Hello:
If a sales tax of 7% is placed on every $1.00 of merchandise for sale, is it correct to indicate
the tax as 7%/ per $1.00 or 7%/$1.00? If the calculation is expressed as 7%/$1.00 X $5.00,
the tax is not $0.35 but 0.35. Is a tax rate of 7% incorrectly represented as 7%/$1.00
since the dollar unit cancels from the multiplication?
I thank you for your reply. Penny Nom lui répond. |
