Answer:

$110.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the cost of item that Carmen purchased from departmental store.

We are told that Carmen has $30 in store bucks and a 25% discount coupon for a local department store. We are asked to find the cost of Carmen's purchase so that after her store bucks and discount are applied, her total is no more than $60 before sales tax.  

As the $30 store bucks are applied before the 25% discount is applied, so we need to find x such that x-30 minus 25% of (x-30) should be less than or equal to 60. We can represent this information in an equation as:

x-30-((x-30)\times\frac{25}{100})\leq 60    

x-30-((x-30)\times 0.25)\leq 60

x-30-(0.25x-7.5)\leq 60    

x-30-0.25x+7.5\leq 60  

0.75x-22.5\leq 60  

0.75x-22.5+22.5\leq 60+22.5

0.75x\leq 82.5  

\frac{0.75x}{0.75}\leq \frac{82.5}{0.75}

x\leq 110    

Therefore, Carmen should make purchases at-most for $110 so that her total is no more than $60 before, sales tax.

<h3>What is basic algebra ?</h3>

Algebra is a branch of mathematics that facilitates the description of problems or situations into mathematical statements. It involves variables like x, y, and z as well as mathematical operations like addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division to generate a valid mathematical statement. All branches of mathematics, such as coordinate geometry, calculus, and trigonometry, employ algebra. An elementary algebraic formula is 2x + 4 = 8. Algebraic expressions serve as the mathematical statement when operations on variables and constants, such as addition, subtraction, multiplication, division, etc., are done.

liraira [26]
4500 meters. You find this by adding 1/3 and 2/5 which equals 11/15. This means that the remaining 4/15 is 1200 meters long. Divide 1200 by 4 in order to find the distance per 1/15 and you get 300. Multiply 300 with 15 to get the total distance of the race.
