We first calculate the percentage increase on the tax

Old value = 25×9 = 225 ⇒ The value 9 represents the 9 lots of thousands of the house's value
New value = 28×9 = 252

Increase in tax = 252 - 225 =27  
Percentage increase = (27÷225) ×100 = 12%

The amount of yearly rent would be then increased by 12%

Monthly rent = $60
Yearly rent = 60×12 = $720
Increase by 12% = 720×1.12 = 806.4 ⇒ The value 1.12 is the multiplier, obtained from 100%+12%=112%=1.12

The monthly rent is 806.4÷12 = $67.20 which is an increase of $7.20 per month

Answer:
The shape has rotational symmetry.
The angle of rotation, taking color into account, is 360°.

Six times a number plus twice a second number is four. Twice the first number plus four times the second number is eighteen.
Debora [2.8K]

Answer:

x=-1, y=5. (-1, 5). The first number is -1 and the second number is 5.

Step-by-step explanation:

6x+2y=4

2x+4y=18

---------------

-2(6x+2y)=-2(4)

2x+4y=18

-------------------------

-12x-4y=-8

2x+4y=18

----------------

-10x=10

x=10/-10

x=-1

6(-1)+2y=4

-6+2y=4

2y=4-(-6)

2y=4+6

2y=10

y=10/2

y=5
