Lets price of article = x
Tax  is 8%  of article = 0.08x

x+0.08x=7.02
1.08x=7.02
x=7.02/1.08 
x=6.5
The retail price is $6.50.

How much money is in Joe's savings account after 3 years if he deposited $400 at the beginning of the year and the account pays
yan [13]

Answer:

Total amount in Joe's savings account T = $448

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

time t = 3 years

Annual rate r = 4%

Principal P = $400

Simple interest can be expressed as;

I = Prt/100

Substituting the given values;

I =400×4×3/100 = 4800/100

I = $48

Total amount in account T;

T = P + I = $400 + $48 = $448

How do you graph -1/5x-1 and 4/5x-6
kakasveta [241]

Answer:

The points for the given to linear equations is (5 , - 2) and (5 , - 1)

The points is plotted on the graph shown .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The two linear equation are

y = \dfrac{-1}{5}x - 1                  ...........1

y = \dfrac{4}{5}x - 6                  ...........2

Now, Solving both the linear equations

Put the value of y from eq 2 into eq 1

I.e  \dfrac{4}{5}x - 6 = \dfrac{-1}{5}x - 1

Or, \dfrac{4}{5}x + \dfrac{1}{5}x  = 6 - 1

Or,  \dfrac{4 + 1}{5}x = 5

or, \dfrac{5}{5}x = 5

∴ x = 5

Now, Put the value of x in eq 1

So, y = \dfrac{-1}{5}x - 1      

Or, y = \dfrac{-1}{5}× 5 - 1              

or,  y = \dfrac{-5}{5} - 1

Or, y = - 1 - 1

I.e y = -2

So, For x = 5 , y = - 2

Point is (x_1 , y_1) = (5 , - 2)

Again , put the value of x in eq 2

So, y = \dfrac{4}{5}x - 6

Or, y = \dfrac{4}{5}× 5 - 6

Or, y = \frac{4\times 5}{5} - 6

Or, y = 4 - 6

I.e y = - 2

So, For x = 5 , y = - 2

Point is (x_2 , y_2) = (5 , - 2)

Hence, The points for the given to linear equations is (5 , - 2) and (5 , - 2)

The points is plotted on the graph shown . Answer

Kate and Jean paint a house together in 6 days. If they work alone, Kate takes 5 fewer days than Jean would take to do the same
navik [9.2K]
X = number of days it would take Kate to paint the house by herself. .
<span>x+5 = number of days it would take Jean to paint the house by herself.</span>
<span>Together, they paint the house in 6 days: </span>
<span>1/x + 1/(x+5) = 1/6 </span>
<span>Multiply both sides by 6x(x+5) </span>
<span>6(x+5) + 6x = x(x+5) </span>
<span>12x + 30 = x^2 + 5x </span>
<span>x^2 − 7x − 30 = 0 
</span>therefore the answer is A.
