Answer:
$45.05
Step-by-step explanation:
Sale price of sweater is (1.00 - 0.15)($50), or 0.85($50) = $42.50. Nya has to pay 6% sales tax on this $42.50. Thus, the final amount due is
(1.00 + 0.06)($2.50) = $45.05
No solution because when you plug in the variables for x y and z none of them equal that correct number.
Answer:
1/8 (Decimal: 0.125)
Step-by-step explanation:
The line passing through (3, -1) and (-1, 5) has this slope:
5+1
m = ---------- = -3/2
-1-3
We need to find the y-intercept. To do this, substitute the knowns (-3/2 for m, -1 for y and 3 for x) into the slope-intercept equation:
-1 = (-3/2)(3) + b. Then: -1 = -9/2 + b, and so b = 9/2 - 1 = 7/2.
The desired equation is y = (-3/2)x + 7/2.
