Answer: The sales tax would be $2.40

Step-by-step explanation:

Another way of writing any percent would be diving that percent by 100, so 3% would be 0.03 4% would be 0.04 and so forth.

All you have to do is multiply 80 by the decimal of the percent

80 * 0.03 =2.4 or $2.40

What is the equation of the graphed line in point-slope form?

Flura [38]

We first need to find the gradient of the line
$\frac{y_{2}- y_{1} } {x_{2}-x_{1} } = \frac{-3-1}{-3-3}= \frac{-4}{-6}= \frac{2}{3}$

From the graph, we see the graph intercepts y-axis at -1

Hence, the equation of the line is $y= \frac{2}{3}x-1$

Answer:

x + y ≥ 20

3x + 5y > 60

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Bags of candy corn = x

Bags of chocolate = y

Cost of bags of candy corn = $3

Cost of bags of chocolate = $5

He needs to buy at least 20 bags of candy and he cannot spend more than $60

system of linear inequalities to model the situation.

x + y ≥ 20

3x + 5y > 60

The system ot inequalities which models the situation

x + y ≥ 20

3x + 5y > 60
