5x - 10y = -40
-10y = -40 - 5x
y = -40 - 5x / -10
-0.127
-0.12
0.20
0.33
45/10
I think that is right
The answer is the third one
Simplifying
5(7x + -3) = 230
Reorder the terms:
5(-3 + 7x) = 230
(-3 * 5 + 7x * 5) = 230
(-15 + 35x) = 230
Solving
-15 + 35x = 230
Solving for variable 'x'.
Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '15' to each side of the equation.
-15 + 15 + 35x = 230 + 15
Combine like terms: -15 + 15 = 0
0 + 35x = 230 + 15
35x = 230 + 15
Combine like terms: 230 + 15 = 245
35x = 245
Divide each side by '35'.
x = 7
Simplifying
x = 7
First you will get the sale price.
you need to convert the percentage to a decimal and to do that you move the decimal over twice:
30% = .30
then multiply the CD price by the decimal
$14.00 X .30 = $4.20
then you have the sales price but you need to find the tax price
to do that you move the decimal of the tax percentage over twice
7% = .07%
then multiply by the price after the sale included
.07 X $4.20 = $0.29
you have how much the tax would be
to get the total price you add the tax to the sales price
$0.29 + $4.20 = $4.42
the price you would be paying for this CD including tax is $4.42
