Rhiann'a paid $5.44 in sales tax on an item that cost $68.00 before tax. A that rate, how much would she pay in sales tax for an item that costs $36.00
before tax?​

0.055x = 1.54

x = 1.54 / 0.055

x = $28

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x = the original price of the board game before tax.

We know that the tax cost $1.54 and was 5.5% of the original price.

5.5% in decimal form = 0.055

5.5% of the original price = 0.055x

5.5% of the original price = tax = $1.54

$650 per month plus utilities

step-by-step explanation:

just based on the info you gave, it would seem more cost effective to rent at $650 per month plus utilities.   if utilities are, in fact, $150 per month, your monthly living costs would be $800 as opposed to the other option of $825.

proofs involving isosceles triangles often require special consideration because an isosceles triangle has several distinct properties that do not apply to normal triangles.(more about triangle types) therefore, when you are trying to prove that two triangles are congruent, and one or both triangles, are isosceles you have a few theorems that you can use to make your life easier.

step-by-step explanation:

an isosceles triangle has two congruent sides and two congruent angles. the congruent angles are called the base angles and the other angle is known as the vertex angle. ∠bac and ∠bca are the base angles of the triangle picture on the left. the vertex angle is ∠abc
