First, isolate 1/3s:
1/3s=12
Second, multiply both sides by 3 to get a singular value of s (just s):
s=36
After solving I have come up with 6 2/9 or 6.22222.
The total cost for one can is: $25.41.
__________________________________________________
Let us assume that we want to know the total cost of ONE CAN.
_____________________________________________
To calculate our answer:
_______________________________
$ 23.97 + [ (6/100) * 23.97)] = Our answer, in dollars.
__________________________________________
Note: "6%" = 6/100 = 0.06
_______________________
Rewrite as:
____________
$ 23.97 + [ (6/100) * 23.97)] = our answer, in dollars;
_____________________________________________
$ 23.97 + (0.06 * 23.97)
= $ 23.97 + 1.4382
= $ 25.4082 ; Round to decimal places, to get:
<span>→ $ 25.41

- Solving systems of equations using substitution/elimination
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1: Define Systems</u>
4x + 5y = -12
-2x + 3y = -16
<u>Step 2: Rewrite Systems</u>
-2x + 3y = -16
- Multiply everything by 2: -4x + 6y = -32
<u>Step 3: Redefine Systems</u>
4x + 5y = -12
-4x + 6y = -32
<u>Step 4: Solve for </u><em><u>y</u></em>
<em>Elimination</em>
- Combine 2 equations: 11y = -44
- Divide 17 on both sides: y = -4
