This is how I do it. If it is a negative minus a negative, I combine the two - signs to make it an addition problem. Ex. -3 - -4 makes -3+4. The answer would be one.
If it is a negative plus a negative, keep the sign on the greater number and take away the sign the smaller number. Ex. -7 + (-9). Keep the sign on the 9. -7 - 9. The answer would be -16.
1, when you factor you get 6x(x^2-1)+4(x^2-1)=
Answer:
The total payment is thus $35.75 plus $7.11, or $42.86
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that the sales tax doesn't affect the tip. The sales tax is 5% of the cost and the tip is 15% of the before tax cost. We calculate the tax and the tip separately, then add them together and finally add this sum to the cost.
Sales tax: 5% of $35.75: $1.75
Tip: 15% of $35.75: $5.36
Adding these two quantities results in $7.11.
The total payment is thus $35.75 plus $7.11, or $42.86
I think it’s 48 but are those the only answer choices???
