$950 is the selling price of the item only.

1.04x = 988
x = 988 / 1.04
x = 950 <== selling price not including tax

check...
950(1.04) = 988
988 = 988 (correct)

so the selling price is 950 plus the sales tax of (0.04 * 950) = 38 for a total of 988

Prove that the value of the expression: 731^2−631^2 is divisible by 100
Ivanshal [37]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

731² - 631² is the difference of squares.

731² - 631² = (731+631)(731-631) = 1362×100

therefore, 731² - 631² is divisible by 100

CaHeK987 [17]

Answer:

b) -18(2x -3y + 5)

d) 18(-2x + 3y - 5)

e) -2(18x - 27y + 45)

Step-by-step explanation:

a) -9( 4x - 6y - 10) = -36x + 54y + 90 not equal

b) -18(2x - 3y + 5) = -36x + 54y - 90 equal

c) -6(6x + 9y - 15) = -36x - 54y + 90 not equal

d) 18(-2x + 3y - 5) = -36x + 54y - 90 equal

e) -2(18x - 27y + 45) = -36x + 54y - 90 equal

f) 2(-18x + 54y - 90) = -36x + 108y - 180 not equal

Do the following points represent a function? (0,2) (1,4) (0,4) (3,9) (5,8)​
photoshop1234 [79]
<h3>Answer: No, this isn't a function.</h3>

Why not? Focus on the two points (0,2) and (0,4)

We have the x value x = 0 show up twice. Any time x repeats itself like this, it leads to "not a function" as the result.

In other words, the input x = 0 leads to multiple outputs y = 2 and y = 4 at the same time. A function is only possible if every x input leads to exactly one y output.

If you are a visual learner, then plot all of the points on the same xy grid. Then notice how (0,2) and (0,4) fail the vertical line test to show we don't have a function.

Side note: The y values can repeat themselves in a function.
