Answer:
yes
Step-by-step explanation:
We can estimate* that the total price including tax of the game will be less than ...
$43.31 +10% of 43.31 = $43.31 +4.33 = $47.61
Todd easily has enough to pay for the game, including tax.
_____
You can work this more exactly a couple of ways.
1. Price + tax = 1.085×$43.31 = $46.99 . . . less than Todd's budget
2. Most Todd can afford: $55.50/1.085 = $51.15 . . . more than the game price
_____
* For estimating purposes, we like to use numbers that are easy to compute with. 10% is one such number, as it only requires moving the decimal point.
I believe the answer is A. 20, 30, 40 is NOT a pythagorean triple.
Answer:
Yes it is, because...
Step-by-step explanation:
This is an inequality, so you can treat it as an algebraic expression.
The first step is to multiple both sides by 2, to get rid of the 2 on the left side.
Your equation will now look like this:
y >= 2y - 22
The next step is to get all the y variables to one side, now that its a lot more simplified. Subtract 2y from both sides to get:
-y >= -22
Finally, cancel out the negative on both sides of the equation to get the y as a positive y, all by itself. This will get you:
y <= 22
REMINDER: when you divide by a negative number, such as in this case dividing by -1 on both sides, the inequality sign will flip!
y = 18 works because it is less than 22. (:
