Answer:

The total money spend on total tax of purchase is $4.625

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The percentage of sales tax applied on gasoline purchase = 8.5%

The percentage of excise tax applied on gasoline purchase = 10%

The price of gasoline before tax = $25

Let The total money on total tax of purchase = $x

Now, Total percentage of tax = sales tax percentage + excise tax percentage

i.e  Total percentage of tax = 8.5% + 10%

Or,  Total percentage of tax = 18.5%

<u>Again</u>

total money on total tax of purchase = $25 of total total tax percentage

Or, x = $25 × 18.5%

Or, x = $25 × \dfrac{18.5}{100}

Or, x = $25 × 0.185

∴  x = $4.625

So,The total money on total tax of purchase = x = $4.625

Hence,The total money spend on total tax of purchase is $4.625 Answer

Answer:

(2,-2)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=-4x+6

y=3x-8

plug the y's in for each other to get:

-4x+6=3x-8   <----- solve from there

+8            +8

-4x+14=3x

+4x         +4x

14=7x

/7     /7

x=2

now plug the x in to get y (in any problem)

y=3(2)-8

y=6-8

y=-2

<em>(2,-2)</em>
