The $315 cost of the couch after tax, gives the cost before tax, <em>C</em>, as the following equation;

Cost \: before \: tax, \: \:  \mathbf {C} =  \frac{315}{1 + t}

<h3>How can the cost before tax be expressed?</h3>

The cost of the couch with tax = $315

Let, <em>t</em>, represent the tax rate, and let <em>C</em>, represent the cost before tax, we have;

315 = C + C × t

  • 315 = C × (1 + t)

Which gives;

  • The cost of the couch before tax, <em>C </em>= 315/(1 + t)

Mathematically, we have the following equation;

Cost \: before \: tax, \: \:  \mathbf {C} =  \frac{315}{1 + t}

Solve the equation x + 0.7 = 1 - 0.2x in two different ways.Then check your answer.Show your work!
expeople1 [14]
Simplifying
x + 0.7 = 1 + -0.2x

Reorder the terms:
0.7 + x = 1 + -0.2x

Solving
0.7 + x = 1 + -0.2x

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '0.2x' to each side of the equation.
0.7 + x + 0.2x = 1 + -0.2x + 0.2x

Combine like terms: x + 0.2x = 1.2x
0.7 + 1.2x = 1 + -0.2x + 0.2x

Combine like terms: -0.2x + 0.2x = 0.0
0.7 + 1.2x = 1 + 0.0
0.7 + 1.2x = 1

Add '-0.7' to each side of the equation.
0.7 + -0.7 + 1.2x = 1 + -0.7

Combine like terms: 0.7 + -0.7 = 0.0
0.0 + 1.2x = 1 + -0.7
1.2x = 1 + -0.7

Combine like terms: 1 + -0.7 = 0.3
1.2x = 0.3

Divide each side by '1.2'.
x = 0.25

Simplifying
x = 0.25

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a rectangular prism has six sides so you must find the sum of the areas of all sides.

A=2xy+2xz+2yz

A=2(xy+xz+yz) you have x,y,z as 3,2,4 so

A=2(3(2)+3(4)+2(4))

A=2(6+12+8)

A=2(26)

A=52 cm^2
