If sqrt x = 9 then x = 9*9 = 81
Answer is between 80 and 90.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
so what you need to do is 112=16m+12b
m=magazines
b=books
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
(1) 2x - 6y = -12
(2) x + 2y = 14
There is a -6y and a +2y. Since they have opposite signs, I'll try to eliminate the y terms. (That's my choice. There is more than one way to solve these.)
Multiply eq. (2) by 3:
3x + 6y = 42
Then add the result to eq. (1) to eliminate the y terms:
2x - 6y = -12
3x + 6y = 42
------------------
5x = 30, so x = 6
Now plug the value of x into eq. (2) and solve for y:
6 + 2y = 14
2y = 8
y = 4
Why did I use eq. (2) to solve for y? Because it's less work. I could have used eq. (1) instead:
2(6) - 6y = -12
12 - 6y = -12
-6y = -24
y = 4
More than one way to solve.
So what you should do is
15% off, then add tax or
2075 times 0.85 times 1.185=2090.04 about
you can't just add and subtract percents because they are percents of different things
what he did was
he found 15% of 2075 and 18.5% of 2075 then found the difference and added to 2075 to find his total
what he should have done is
found the discounted price (15% off) then found the tax on that
first way
2075 times 0.15=311.25
2075-311.25=1763.75
1763.75 times 0.185=326.29375
1763.75-326.29375=2090.04
2nd way (easy, if you understand commutative property and stuff)
100-15=85
1+0.185=1.185
2075*0.85*1.185=2090.04
answer should be $2090.04
