Since it includes 11% sales tax, this means that (purchase)+11% of (purchase)=25.00. Since 11% = 0.11 by multiplying it by 1/100, we have 1*purchase+0.11*purchase=1.11*purchase=25.00. Dividing both sides by 1.11, we get around 22.73 as the original purchase. This means that the difference between the purchase price and the total price is the sales tax, which is around 2.27 dollars.

Answer:

The sales tax is $2.48

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a final price of $25.00 wich includes an <u>11% sales tax</u>. In order to know the amount of the tax, we can calculate that <em>a given value x, should have a final price of $25.00</em> wich includes the tax in that amount, not in x, meaning

x=\frac{25}{1+0.11} \Leftrightarrow x=22.52

So, <u>this is the value of the purchase without tax</u>, and the tax is the <em>difference between the final amount, and this value</em>

tax=25-22.52=2.48

Finally, the sales tax is $2.48.

The matrix represents the system:

-3x+5y=15

2x+3y=-10, which is choice c. 


We can see it more clearly from the way we multiply matrices, as follows:

\[&#10;  \left[ {\begin{array}{cc}&#10;   -3 & 5 \\&#10;    \ 2  & 3 \\&#10;  \end{array} } \right]&#10;\] \cdot  \[&#10;  \left[ {\begin{array}{c}&#10;   x \\&#10;    y \\&#10;  \end{array} } \right]&#10;\]= \left[ {\begin{array}{c}&#10;   -3\cdot x+5\cdot y \\&#10;    2\cdot x+3\cdot y \\&#10;  \end{array} } \right]&#10;\]= \[ \left[ {\begin{array}{c} 15 \\ -10 \\ \end{array} } \right] \]

If 57 is added to a number, it will be 4 times as large as it was originally. Find the number.
Sonja [21]

Answer:

19

Step-by-step explanation:

X will refer to the number.

X+57( the number added to the original.)=4x. (x time 4)

X+57=4x.

Subtract x from both sides to get the variable on one side.

(X+57)-x =(4x)-x

57=3x. You would then divide by 3 on both sides to again get integer isolated.

57/3=3/3x.

57/3=19. 3/3=1.

19=x.
