First you need to find the amount for each of the items, then total it up:

T-shirts> 9.50 x 2 = 19
Socks> 7.95 x 3 = 23.85
Shoes> 49.95
Total: 19 + 23.85 + 49.95 = $92.80

Next find the tax:

(to find the taxes you multiply the total by the percent)
92.8 x 0.06 = 5.57
-- then add the amount to your item total
92.8 + 5.57 = 98.37

~OR~

You could multiply the item total by 1.06 so that you wouldn't have to add to taxes to the previous total because it is already part of the equation

92.8 x 1.06 = 98.37

Which statement(s) could describe the graph of a nonproportional relationship? Select all that apply

Solnce55 [7]

Answer:

A. The positive y-intercept.

D. The y-intercept is negative.

Step-by-step explanation:

The proportional relationship is defined by the graph passing through the origin i.e. the y-intercept is equal to zero.

The equation of y proportional to x relationship is y = kx, which again denotes that the graph passes through the origin (0,0).

Now, the statements that can describe the graph of a non-proportional relationship are

A. The positive y-intercept.

D. The y-intercept is negative. (Answer)

Solve the system 3x+y=2 5x-y=8

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

x= 5/4 ; y= -7/4

Step-by-step explanation:

I will solve your system by substitution.

(You can also solve this system by elimination.)

3x+y=2;5x−y=8

Step: Solve3x+y=2for y:

3x+y+−3x=2+−3x(Add -3x to both sides)

y=−3x+2

Step: Substitute−3x+2foryin5x−y=8:

5x−y=8

5x−(−3x+2)=8

8x−2=8(Simplify both sides of the equation)

8x−2+2=8+2(Add 2 to both sides)

8x=10

(Divide both sides by 8)

Step: Substitute

forxiny=−3x+2:

y=−3x+2

y=−3(

)+2

−7

(Simplify both sides of the equation)

Answer:

and y=

−7
