You plan to buy $12,000 in computers at a local chain store. There are two stores located about the same distance from your offi

ce but in different cities with different tax rates. One city has a tax rate of 7% and the other has a tax rate of 8.5%. What percent can you save by going with the lower tax rate? Round your answer to the nearest tenth of a percent, if necessary.

Lets calculate the taxes that would been payed at each city:
city1 = 12000(7%) = 12000(0.07) = 840
city2 = <span>12000(8.5%) = 12000(0.085) = 1020
So if you go to city1 instead of city2, you save 1020 - 840 = 180
So you would save $180 from $12000, that is:
 180 out of 12000
= 180/12000
= 0.015
and that is the 1.5%, that is what you could save</span>

This is the problem I’m having trouble with. It’s the first time I’ve done linear equations in four variables and I got the answ
garik1379 [7]

x+y-z+w = 10--------(1)

x+3y-4z+5w=26------(2)

x+4y-7z+7w = 37-------(3)

x+2y-3z+6w = 22--------(4)

Subtract equation (1) from (2)

x+3y-4z+5w - (x+y-z+w) = 26 - 10

2y + -3z - 4w = 16-----------------------------(5)

Subtract equation (1) from (3)
