Answer:

$ 31.30

Step-by-step explanation:

The bill for food, tax and tip = $ 36

let the y be the amount paid for food and tax

y + 0.15 y = $ 36

1.15 y = $ 36

y = $ 36 / 1.15 = $ 31.30

Consider this algebraic expression:     –3x + x + 5 Use the algebra tiles to model the expression.
luda_lava [24]

For this case, we have the following expression:

-3x + x + 5

We simplify the expression:

If we add similar terms, taking into account that different signs are subtracted and the sign of the greater one is placed, we have that -3x + x = -2x

So, we have to:

-3x + x + 5 = -2x + 5

Answer:

-3x + x + 5 = -2x + 5

Suppose the coefficient matrix of a system of linear equations has a pivot position in every row. Explain why the system is cons
mestny [16]

Answer: A.

The system is consistent because the rightmost column of the augmented matrix is not a pivot column.

Explanation: a system is consistent if and only if the rightmost column of the augmented matrix is not a pivot column. Since every column of the coefficient matrix is a pivot column, none of the leading coefficients are in the rightmost column of the augmented matrix. Therefore the rightmost column of the augmented matrix cannot be a pivot column and the system must be consistent.
