Sales tax = 6% or 6/100.
assuming tax is added onto the item:
total cost function f(x) = price + tax
however, assuming the cost price = sales price - tax, then:
f(x) = sales price - tax
This is not really a business or accounting forum, its a maths forum, so you need to be clearer about business or accounting terms such as total cost, selling price, selling cost.
2.5(t - 2) - 6 = 9
2.5(t - 2) = 9 + 6 = 15
t - 2 = 15/2.5 = 150/25 = 6
t = 6 + 2 = 8
Answer: 8
Check: 2.5(8 - 2) - 6 = 2.5(6) - 6 = 1.5(6) = 9 good
565 sheets/ 1 book* 2,000 books= 1,130,000 sheets.
The final answer is 1.13*10^(6) sheets.
Hope this helps~
Answer:
(x, y) = (-3, 2)
Step-by-step explanation:
Put the given value of y into the equation and solve for x.
... 7·2 +3x = 5
... 3x = -9 . . . . . . subtract 14
... x = -3 . . . . . . . divide by the x-coefficient
The solution (x, y) is (-3, 2).
