Answer:

18 years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let Nick age is x years and Harry's age is y years.

Hence, we have the equation

x = 7y  ......(1)

After six years, Nick's age is (x+6) and Harry's age is (y+6)

Hence, we have

x+6=5(y+6)\\x+6=5y+30

Plugging x = 7y, we get

7y+6=5y+30\\2y=24\\y=12

Hence, from equation (1)

x = 7(12)

x =84

In 6 years, Harry will be of 12 + 6 =18 years.

X = Harry's Age

Nick's age is 7x 

In 6 years Harry is 7x+6, and Nick is 5(x+6)

7x+6=5x+30

2x+6=30

2x = 24

x = 12

Harry = 12 years old and in 6 years Harry will be 18.

The sales tax in your state is 5% if a car costs $24,600 what is the total cost including tax?
Svetach [21]
<h2>Greetings!</h2>

Answer:

$25830

Step-by-step explanation:

If 100% of the car price is 24,600 , then you can imagine that extra 5% being added to this

100 + 5 = 105

So you need to find what 105% of the cost was.

To do this you can use the percentage formula:

Amount x \frac{percentage}{100}

Now, you can simply plug the values into this

24,600 x \frac{105}{100}

24600 x 1.05 = 25830

<h3>So the total cost including tax would be $25830!</h3><h3 /><h2>Hope this helps!</h2>
