Answer:
C. 1.15<em>x</em> because adding 15% to the cost of the haircut is the same as multiplying the cost by 1.15.
Step-by-step explanation:
This answer is correct because, adding 0.15x (or 15%) to the total amount is the same as multiplying the cost by 1.15. This is because, the 1 that is added to 0.15 represents the total, since we are just multiplying instead of adding to it.
Hope this helps! :D
Answer:
4. b) 30
5. c) y=2/3x+9
6. y=2x-5
Step-by-step explanation:
57 x .02 will get the right answr
X + 2y = 3 ----------- (1)
x - y = 6 ------------(2)
Equation (2) - (1) :
-3y = 3 // ║x - x = 0 ║;║ - y - 2y = -3y║ ; ║6 - 3 = 3 ║
y = -1 // ║ ÷ (-3) on both sides ║
Substitute y = -1 into equation (2) :
x - y = 6 // ║ Equation 2║
x - ( -1 ) = 6 // ║ Sub y = -1 into the equation║
x + 2 = 6 // ║ open the bracket ( - ) ( -) = + ║
x = 4 // ║ Take away 2 from both sides║
Answer: x = 4, y = -1
