If you would like to know the price Jay can pay the manufacturer for the blow up bed, you can calculate this using the following steps:
100% + 40% = 140%
140% of x is $299
140% * x = 299
140/100 * x = 299 /*100/140
x = 299 * 100 / 140
x = $213.6
40% of $213.6 = 40% * 213.6 = 40/100 * 213.6 = 85.44
$213.6 + $85.44 = $299
The correct result would be $213.6.
Answer:
the total cost of the laptop with tax is 958.45
Step-by-step explanation:
-4x + 7y = 9 ⇒ -4x + 7y = 9 ⇒ 8x - 14y = -18
2y = -5x - 22 ⇒ -5x - 2y = 22 ⇒ <u>-35x - 14y = 154</u>
<u>43x</u> = <u>-172</u>
43 43
x = -4
-4x + 7y = 9
-4(-4) + 7y = 9
16 + 7y = 9
<u>- 16 - 16</u>
<u>7y</u> = <u>-7</u>
7 7
y = -1
(x, y) = (-4, -1)
This would result in 322.5. you get this by moving the decimal place two to the right
