For this problem, the answer is choice A.
Answer:
(-19 , -7)
Step-by-step explanation:
y - x = 12
y + x = -25 we sum them to get
2y = -14 , y = -7
then we put -7 instead of y in any of the equations:
-7 - x = 12
-x = 19
x = -19,
finally (x , y) is (-19 , -7)
Answer: he would receive a rebate of $1677.5
Step-by-step explanation:
A General Motors buyer-incentive program offered a 5.5% rebate on the selling price of a new car. This means that if the selling price of the new car is $x, the rebate (in dollars) that a customer would receive is
5.5/100 × x = 0.055 × x = 0.055x
Therefore, for a customer who purchased a $30,500 car under this program, the rebate that he would receive is
0.055 × 30500 = $1677.5
Using rounding I would change 198 to 200 and 727 to 730.
200 + 730 = 930. Some would change the 727 to 700 but I see no need to do that. My answer will be closer using 200+730.
You can also get the exact answer like this - when you raise 198 to 200, you raised it by 2 so to compensate, take 2 away from the other number and 727 becomes 725
I can do 200 + 725 = 925 in my head and that happens to be the exact answer.
