A customer purchases groceries for $22.00 before tax, and $23.76 after tax. What percentage sales tax did the customer pay?

(n^3 - n)

= n(n-1)(n+1)

since it is divisible by 3 and 2 ,because it is a multiple 3 consecutive number

if, n-1 is odd then n+1 is also odd, then it is a multiple of 9

but if, n-1 is even then n+1 is also even, then it is a multiple of 4

so, largest multiple = max(9*2, 4*3) = max(18, 12) = 18

1. 16.64

a^2+b^2=c^2

pr^2=pq^2+qr^2

pr^2=14^2+ 9^2

pr^2=196+81

pr= sqr root of 277

16.64

2. 11.31

c^2-a^2=b^2

18^2- 14^2=b^2

b^2=324-196

b=sqr root of 126

b=11.31

hope it ! (btw im in connections academy to, good luck! )

answer: i ! the answer is   9000 seconds, also d

hope i
