Answer:
$45.05
Step-by-step explanation:
Sale price of sweater is (1.00 - 0.15)($50), or 0.85($50) = $42.50. Nya has to pay 6% sales tax on this $42.50. Thus, the final amount due is
(1.00 + 0.06)($2.50) = $45.05
First, we need to add 2/6 and 2/5.
2/6 can be simplified to 1/3
We need to have 1/3 and 2/5 have the same denominator. 3 and 5's LCM (least common multiply) is 15.
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 1/3 by 5. This equals 5/15.
Multiply both the numerator and denominator of 2/5 by 3. This equals 6/15.
5/15 plus 6/15 is 11/15. This means that Jack's 6000 dollars is 4/15.
Let's say that x is the total amount invested by all three.
6000/x would equal 4/15.
Solve this by multiply 6000 by 15 and 4 by x and making these two equal each other.
90000 would equal 4x. Divide both sides by 4 to get x.
90000 divided by 4 would be 22500.
4/15 is the fraction by Jack
22500 is the total amount invested by all 3
Answer:
x=2 and y=1
Step-by-step explanation:
Rewrite equations:
y=−x+3;y=x−1
Step: Solve
y=−x+3
Step: Substitute−x+3foryiny=x−1:
y=x−1
−x+3=x−1
−x+3+−x=x−1+−x(Add -x to both sides)
−2x+3=−1
−2x+3+−3=−1+−3(Add -3 to both sides)
−2x=−4−2x−2=−4−2
(Divide both sides by -2)
x=2
Step: Substitute2forxiny=−x+3:
y=−x+3
y=−2+3
y=1(Simplify both sides of the equation)
Hope this Helps you :)
