Answer:

Total amount paid by Eunice=$1,044

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: Determine full price of couch

Full price of couch=$1200

Step 2: Determine tax

Tax=tax rate×full price

where;

tax rate=7%

full price=$1200

replacing;

Tax=(7/100)×1,200=$84

Tax=$84

Step 3: Calculate the sale price

Sale price=Full price-20% discount

where;

Full price=$1,200

discount=(20/100)×1,200=$240

replacing;

Sale price=(1,200-240)=960

Sale price=$960

Step 4: Total amount paid by Eunice

Total amount paid by Eunice=Sale price+tax

where;

Sale price=$960

tax=$84

replacing;

Total amount paid by Eunice=(960+84)=$1,044

Total amount paid by Eunice=$1,044

PLEASE HELP!!! 100 POINTS!

Answer:

  x = 0; y = -6; z = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to find the solution to the system of equations ...

  • 9x+y-3z=-9
  • 10x-y+2z=8
  • -10x-y+4z=10

<h3>Solution</h3>

This set of equations is conveniently solved using the matrix row-reduction features of a scientific or graphing calculator, spreadsheet, or any of a number of apps or on-line calculators.

The attachment shows the solution to be ...

  (x, y, z) = (0, -6, 1)

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

Solving a system of three or more equations "by hand" often can be done by an ad hoc process. It can be done in systematic fashion using Gauss-Jordan reduction techniques, but that often gets messy. Similarly, Cramer's Rule can be used, but that math tends to involve more arithmetic operations than are really necessary.

Adding the first equation to the other two eliminates the y-variable and reduces the system to two equations in two unknowns.

  (9x +y -3z) +(10x -y +2z) = (-9) +(8) . . . . adding [1] and [2]

  19x -z = -1 . . . . simplified

  (9x +y -3z) +(-10x -y +4z) = (-9) +(10) . . . . adding [1] and [3]

  -x +z = 1 . . . . simplified

At this point, we could graph the two equations, or we can proceed algebraically.

Adding these two equations gives ...

  (19x -z) +(-x +z) = (-1) +(1)

  18x = 0   ⇒   x = 0

Using the second of the reduced equations, we find ...

 -x +z = 1

  0 +z = 1   ⇒   z = 1

And using the second of the original equations, gives us ...

  10(0) -y +2(1) = 8

  -y = 6 . . . . . subtract 2

  y = -6 . . . . multiply by -1

Then the solution is (x, y, z) = (0, -6, 1), as above.

Help me fast PLEASE  The equation y = 1.6x represents the number of laps Henry can swim over time, where y is the number of laps
Phoenix [80]
The table is missing though but you may consider the following calculations :

Y = 1.6 x
for x = 1 minutes
 Y = 1.6 laps
for x = 2 minutes
Y = 3.2 laps
for x = 3 minutes
Y = 4.8 laps
