First, let’s all acknowledge that whoever comes up with problems like this WANTS kids to hate math...smh
I’m sure there is a prettier way to solve this, but here’s what I did:
8(2.25) + 3(22.50) =
18 + 67.50 = 85.50 per “set” of balls/jerseys
400/85.50 = 4.678 = number of “sets” he can buy. Round down to 4 so we have room for tax.
85.5 x 4 “sets”= $342
Tax on 342 is 0.06 x 342 = 20.52
$342 + 20.52 = $362.52 spent
Basketballs = 4 sets x 8 balls per set= 32
Jerseys = 4 sets x 3 jerseys per set= 12
32 basketballs, 12 jerseys, $362.52 spent
What do you need help with I cant help if I don't know what problems to solve

- Divide:
Answer: 6 - 5
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
|z - 6| - |z - 5| ; z < 5
Since z < 5, then
|z - 6| will be the absolute value of a negative number. Replace the absolute value with a negative and parentheses:
-(z - 6) = -z + 6
|z - 5| will be the absolute value of a negative number. Replace the absolute value with a negative and parentheses:
-(z - 5) = -z + 5
Now subtract them without the absolute value signs:
-z + 6 - (-z + 5)
Distribute the negative sign:
-z + 6 + z - 5
-z + z = 0 which leaves:
6 - 5
Answer:
Their weekly sales would have to be $10,000 before they can be earning the same amount for the week
Step-by-step explanation:
If they are to be earning the same thing each week, it means whatever Toni is earning is what Nicky would be earning.
We proceed by equating their earnings so we would get x;
800 + 0.07x = 600 + 0.09x
Collect like terms
800-600 = 0.09x -0.07x
200 = 0.02x
x = 200/0.02
x = 10,000
