State sales tax S S is directly proportional to retail price p p . An item that sells for 142 142 dollars has a sales tax of 12.32 12.32 dollars. Find a mathematical model that gives the amount of sales tax S S in terms of the retail price p p .

Find the value of p for which the polynomial 3x^3 -x^2 + px +1 is exactly divisible by x-1, hence factorise the polynomial

If you are trying to move an attached term across the equal sign (=), what operation would you use to move it?

Girardo is using the model below to solve the equation . girardo uses the following steps: step 1 add 4 negative x-tiles to both sides step 2 add 1 negative unit tile to both sides step 3 the solution is which step could be adjusted so that gerardo's final step results in a positive x-value? in step 1, he should have added 4 positive x-tiles to both sides. in step 1, he should have added 3 negative x-tiles to both sides. in step 2, he should have added 4 negative unit tiles to both sides. in step 2, he should have added 1 positive unit tile to both sides.
