<span>3x – 15y = 60
y-intercept x = 0</span>
3(0)– 15y = 60
-15y = 60
y = -4
x-intercept y = 0
3x– 15(0) = 60
3x = 60
x =20
answer :
<span>C. x-intercept: 20; y-intercept: –4</span>
The inclusion/exclusion principle states that

That is, the union has as many members as the sum of the number of members of the individual sets, minus the number of elements contained in both sets (to avoid double-counting).
Therefore,

will have the most elements when the sets

and

are disjoint, i.e.

, which would mean the most we can can in this case would be

(Note that

denotes the cardinality of the set

.)
Answer: If you mean 5% of $14.98, it is $0.75 75 cents
If you mean 14.98 represents a 5% commission on what sale amount
The sale amount was $299.60
Step-by-step explanation:
Change the percent to a decimal and multiply by the sale amount.
0.05 × 14.98 = .749 Round to .75
If 14.98 is the 5% commission, divide 14.98/.05= 299.60
First multiply, so 42 x 39, which equals 1,638, then estimate, round 42 to 40, and 39 to 40, and do 40 x 40 = 1,600 which is close to your answer, so good.
