Im assuming the question is asking: if she collected $22 in sales tax what was the cost of the items her store sold. you should make sure you type the question correctly otherwise it'll be hard to answer.
going with my assumption of what the question is, we want to find the total cost of all items her story sold. let that cost be c. since there is 5% sales tax on everything and we know the sales tax is worth $22,m we have:
5%(c) = 22
dividing both sides by 5% (or .05) gives:
c = $440
For this case we have the following equations:
2x - 3y = 1
2x + 3y = 2
When adding both equations we observe that:
Sentence 1: we have an equation of a variable, which in this case will be x. We can clear the value of x.
Sentence 2: Knowing the value of x, we can substitute in any equation and find the value of y.
Sentence 3: The value of x and y represents the point of intersection of both lines (x, y).
Answer:
vertical maybe if try it and see
Answer:
The quadratic function whose graph contains these points is 
Step-by-step explanation:
We know that a quadratic function is a function of the form
. The first step is use the 3 points given to write 3 equations to find the values of the constants <em>a</em>,<em>b</em>, and <em>c</em>.
Substitute the points (0,-2), (-5,-17), and (3,-17) into the general form of a quadratic function.



We can solve these system of equations by substitution
- Substitute


- Isolate a for the first equation

- Substitute
into the second equation



The solutions to the system of equations are:
b=-2,a=-1,c=-2
So the quadratic function whose graph contains these points is

As you can corroborate with the graph of this function.
