In this question, we are required to find the total amount he paid to buy the shirt.
It is given that sales tax is 5.5 % over the amount paid.
The cost price of the shirt = $ 24.
The total amount will be = Cost price + 5.5 % of Cost price
Or
Total amount paid = $ 24 × 1.055 (i.e. 100 % + 5.5 %)
Total amount = $ 24 + (5.5 % × $ 24)
Total amount paid = $ 24 + $ 1.32 = $ 25.32
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
This explanation mostly depends on what you're learning right now. The first way would be to convert this matrix to a system of equations like this.
g + t + k = 90
g + 2t - k = 55
-g - t + 3k = 30
Then you solve using normal methods of substitution or elimination. It seems to me that elimination is the quickest method.
g + t + k = 90
-g - t + 3k = 30
____________
0 + 0 + 4k = 120
4k = 120
k = 30
No you can plug this into the first two equations
g + t + (30) = 90
g + t = 60
and
g + 2t - (30) = 55
g + 2t = 85
now use elimination again by multiplying the first equation by -1
g + 2t = 85
-g - t = -60
_________
0 + t = 25
t = 25
Now plug those both back into one of the equations. I'll just do the first one.
g + (25) + (30) = 90
g = 35
Therefore, we know that Ted spent the least amount of time on the computer.
The second method is using matrix reduction and getting the matrix in the row echelon form, therefore solving using the gauss jordan method. If you would like me to go through this instead, please leave a comment.
Answer:
70
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
i think its x= 0.75
Step-by-step explanation:
substitute:
8x × 5 = 40x
8x × 10 = 80x
8 × 5 = 40
5 × 10 =50
40x + 80x = 40 + 50
add like terms
so it'd be:
120x = 90
now divide 90 by 120 and that would give you the value of x alone which is 0.75
