30 + x0.15=y is the first equation
15+x0.20=y is the second equation
Where in both x equals the amount of days it takes and y is your out come
You can solve this problem two ways one by finding the common denominator or just multiply x until you get the same awnser between the both of them
When multiplying the same number raised to different powers add the powers together.
3 + 2 + 5 = 10
Because you are also multiplying a value without a power you need to add 1 to the sum of the powers:
10 + 1 = 11
Answer: 6^11
87. Juanita started with 40 dollars in her pocket.
Then she bought one CD for 7.99 dollars and 1 DVD for 8.99 dollars.
It has a sales tax of 7% on these items.
Plus she bought a lunch for 4.25 dollars including tax
Solve:
=> 7.99 dollars + 8.99 dollars = 16.98 dollars
=> 16.98 dollars * .07 = 1.2 dollars
=> 16.98 + 1.2 = 18.18 dollars
Plus the lunch
=> 18.18 + 4.25 = 22.43 dollars
=> 40 – 22.43 = 17.57 dollars
