Catherine could take the original price of $144.97 and multiply it by .09 (9%). This would equal a sales tax of $13.073 which could be rounded to $13.01. Then add the original price of $144.97 to the tax of $13.01 to get a total of $157.98.

With show work needed. a and b.
Andru [333]

a)

Solution,

Given,

Cost for 1 pen = $ 1.50

= 1.50×100 cents

= 150 cents

Cost for 1 ruler = 80 cents

No. of Pens needed to be bought = x

No. of rulers needed to be bought = x+10

Now,

Cost for x pens = x×150 cents

= 150x cents

Cost for (x+10) rulers = (x+10)×80 cents

= 80x cents+800 cents

Then,

Total cost = 150x cents+(80x cents+800 cents)

= 150x cents+80x cents+800 cents

= 230x cents+800 cents

= $(230x ÷ 100)+$(800 ÷ 100)

= $2.3x + $8

Therefore,Louise spent $2.3x and $8 as total amount

Which equation is true when x=-18
posledela

e^x=18

ex = 18 e x = 18 Take the natural logarithm of both sides of the equation to remove the variable from the exponent. ln(ex) = ln(18) ln (e x) = ln (18)

describe the steps you used to solve the equation and find the amount of carries allowance. linear equation: 1/4a+1/3a+8=22
vlabodo [156]

1/4a + 1/3a +8 =22

1st step add like terms:

1/4a +1/3a = 3/12a +4/12a = 7/12a

7/12a +8 =22

2nd step subtract 8 from each side:

7/12a = 14

3rd step divide both sides by 7/12 to get a:

a = 14 / 7/12

a = 24
