In order to solve for total sales, you first must solve for the amount of sales tax. Since she bought 3 yards of cloth, she bought  worth of cloth. Now to find the sales tax, multiply that value by , which looks like  (I'm rounding to the nearest cent). So to solve for the total cost, add those two values together. So the answer is , which is answer choice D.

<span>So we want to see how much did Dawn pay for the three yards of cloth if one yard is 2.25$ and the sales tax is 5%. So the sales tax increases the value in this case for 5% so the new value is 105% or 105/100. Now we see what the value of one yard of cloth is and that is (105/100)*2.25$=2.3625$. So 3 jards of cloth are 3*2.3625$=7.0875$ so the correct answer is D.</span>

Nookie1986 [14]

Answer:

There are 3 adults in the family.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equations 8x + 4y = 32 and 16x + 12y = 72 represent the cost of lunch and dinner for a family in which x is the number of adults and y is the number of children.

We have to find the number of adults or the value of x by solving these equations.

equations are 8x + 4y = 32 -------(1)

16x + 12y = 72 --------(2)

Now we will multiply equation 1 by 3 and subtract it by equation 2.

(16x + 12y) -3(8x + 4y) = 72 - 96

16x + 12y - 24x - 12y = -24

(16x - 24x) + (12y - 12y) = -24

-8x = - 24

8x = 24

x = 3

Therefore, there are 3 adults in the family.

Answer:

50

Step-by-step explanation:

would it be 50 because you the q to the power of 2 is 2q. Then you would subtract to the other side of the equation so it would be -100=-2q. After you would divided the -2 in -2q on both sides and -100/-2 is 50. So your answer is q=50
