How to tax things:
In this case, lets say the state tax is 7%.
Shen you buy something, lets say some shoes. For example lets say the price is 60.99
With the 7% tax, move the decimal point two times to the left: 7 -> .07
Multiply .07 by the total price
60.99 * .07 = 4.27
Then add this amount to the total price
60.99 + 4.27 = 65.26
This is how you tax
The answer correct is C.
We can use the linear equation y=mx+b to help. y is the dependent variable, m is slope, x is the independent variable, and b is the y intercept.
In this case, the values of x and y were not given, so we still have y=mx+b. We can substitute 9/4 for m and -14 for b to get y=9/4x-15, which is C.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
you divide the two to the y, which is x=3/2y
then, you simplify the second equation to y, which is -3y= -4x+12
then, you substitute the x=3/2y into the second equation,
-3y = -6+12
-3y = 6
y = -2
Substitute the y into the first equation, x= 3/2y,
x = -3
