Tess and Dan have $24.00 each to spend at a book fair, where all students receive a 15% discount. They both want to purchase a c

opy of the same book, which normally sells for $24.50 plus 10% sales tax. To check if she has enough to purchase the book, Tess takes 15% of $24.50 and subtracts that amount from the normal price. She takes 10% of the discounted selling price and adds it back to find the purchase amount. Dan takes 85% of the normal purchase price and then computes 110% of the reduced price. Is Tess correct? Is Dan correct? Do they have enough money to purchase the book? Explain your answer using complete sentences, and show your work.

Tpy6a [65]

Answer:

Unless im being completely braindead right now there isn't a whole number that works with this. When simplified its 5/2 or 2.5 but because it isn't an actual whole number (like 2, 4 and 6) they don't count.

Eli has $640 to spend at a bicycle store for some new gear and biking outfits. Assume all prices listed include tax.
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First of all we have to discover how much he spent.

356.89 + 2(16.70) + 27.47 = $417.76

Now we have to find how much money he saved

640 - 417.76 = $222.24

the total cost of biking outfits must be eqaua or less than $222.24..

We know the price of a single outift so we can write this inequality:

74.08o ≤ 222.24

we can find o by dividing the two members of the inequality:

o ≤ 222.24/74.08  = 3

o≤ 3

this mean that he can buy 1, 2 or 3 outfits

The function f(x)=5(2)^x was replaced with f(x)+k , resulting in the function graphed below.
ella [17]
In this problem, you have to find the y- intercept of f(x)=5(2)^x. I graphed mine into a graphing calculator. An algebraic way to find it is to input x=0 in the function. The y-intercept is 5.  You can see the y-intercept for the new one is -2. That means we shifted the graph down 7 units. (Vertical Shift down 7)
