Answer: $8.4, $148.4

Step-by-Step Explanation:

Cost of Vacuum Cleaner = $140
Sales Tax Rate = 6%

Sales Tax = 6% of $140
= 6/100 * 140
= 6/10 * 14
= 84/10
= 8.4
Therefore, Sales Tax = $8.4

Total Cost with Sales Tax = Cost of Vacuum Cleaner + Sales Tax
= 140 + 8.4
= 148.4
Therefore, Total Cost = $148.4

maw [93]

The equations y=55x+50 and y=65x represents Rick's and Betty's trip.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Head start of Rick = 50 miles

Speed of Rick = 55 mph

Let,

x be the number of hours

y be the total miles

Distance covered by Rick in x hours = Speed * Time + Head start

y = 55x + 50

Speed of Betty = 65 mph

Total miles = Speed*Time

y=65x

The equations y=55x+50 and y=65x represents Rick's and Betty's trip.

Elanso [62]

Answer:

y=8/(p+q+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

py+qy=-4y+8

Collect all terms containing y together

Py+qy+4y=8

Factor out y

y(p+q+4)=8

Divide both sides by (p+q+4)

y(p+q+4)/(p+q+4)=8/(p+q+4)

y=8/(p+q+4)

Answer:

  6 liters

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the amount of pure concentrate used to make the punch. Then the total amount of concentrate in the punch is ...

 0.20·10 +1.00x = 0.50(10+x)

  x +2 = 0.5x +5 . . . . . eliminate parentheses

  0.5x = 3 . . . . . . . . . . .subtract 2+0.5x

  x = 6 . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 2

6 liters of pure concentrate must be added to make a 50% punch.
