Answer: $133.20
Step-by-step explanation: To simply find the sales tax all you have to do is:
Step 1 Multiply: 120 x .11 = 13.2
Step 2 Add: 120 + 13.2 = 132.2
So Robert actually has to pay $133.20
Answer:
Y=7+3x, x=-3, y=-2
Step-by-step explanation:
3x-5y=1. Equation 1
3x-y=-7. Equation 2
-y=-7-3x isolate for y in equation 2
y=7+3x multiplied by -1 to get positive y
3x-5(7+3x)=1 substitute y value of equation 2 (7+3x) into equation 1
3x-35-15x=1
-12x=36
x=-3
solve for y.
3x-5y=1
3(-3)-5y=1
-9-5y=1
-5y=10
y=-2

Forming Equations from Word Problems</h2>
To form equations from word problems, we can derive mathematical operations as well as variables from the given information.
In this case, each time Walker reads a certain number of pages, we subtract that from the total number of pages left to know how many pages is left to read.
<h2>Solving the Question</h2>
<em>Let r represent the pages left to read.</em>
<em />
792 pages in total
Walker reads 15 pages a day during the week and 25 pages a day during the weekend.
- There are 5 weekdays, and he reads 15 pages each of those days. ⇒ <em>r</em> = 792 - 5×15
- There are 2 weekend days, and he reads 25 pages each of those days.
⇒ <em>r</em> = 792 - (5×15 + 2×25)
5 weeks have passed
- Multiply the terms representing the number of pages he reads a week by 5, for 5 weeks.
⇒ <em>r</em> = 792 - (5×15 + 2×25)×5
<h2>Answer</h2>
<em>r</em> = 792 - (5×15 + 2×25)×5
