Step-by-step explanation:
The total cost of a $2,099 couch including the 6.5% sales tax is $ 2235.435
<u>Solution:</u>
Given that,
cost of couch = $ 2099
Sales tax = 6.5%
<em><u>Finding the total cost of couch with sales tax:</u></em>
Total cost of couch = selling price of couch + sales tax on the selling price of couch
Plugging in values we get,
<em>Total cost of couch = $ 2,099 + 6.5% sales tax on $ 2099</em>
Taking "2099" as common term, we get,
On solving brackets,
Hence, the total cost of the couch is found as $ 2235.435
B. because all others can be turned into fractions. Just find the odd one out also.
X <0 means x would be negative.
For x/y, a negative divided by a positive would give a negative answer.
A negative multiplied by a positive would result in a negative.
The answer would be B. Negative
Answer:
Distance = 10 km
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of hours taken from school to town and y be the number of hours taken back to the school
Then distance covered during first trip would be 10x (distance = speed*time) and during the second trip would be 8y. Both distances are equal.
=> 10x = 8y
Dividing both sides by 2
=> 5x = 4y
=> 5x-4y = 0 ------------------(1)
<u><em>The total time for both the trips is:</em></u>
=> x + y = 2.25 -------------------(2)
Multiplying eq (2) by 5
=> 5x+5y = 11.25 ---------------(3)
Subtacting (3) from (1)
=> 5x-4y-5x-5y = 0-11.25
=> -4y-5y = -11.25
=> -9y = -11.25
Dividing both sides by -9
=> y = 1.25 hrs
Putting in (2)
=> x + 1.25 = 2.25
=> x = 2.25 - 1.25
=> x = 1 hr
<u><em>Now, Calculating the Distance</em></u>
=> Distance = 10x
=> 10 ( 1 )
=> Distance = 10 km
