Let x represent the cost of book B
Book A: $17.50
Book B: x
Sales tax: (A + B) x 6% = .06(17.50 + x) = 1.05 + .06x
book A + book B + sales tax = total cost
(17.50) + (x) + (1.05 + .06x) = 44.52 <em>plugged in all of the values</em>
18.55 + 1.06x = 44.52 <em>added like terms</em>
1.06x = 25.97 <em>subtracted 18.55 from both sides</em>
x = 24.50 divided 1.06 from both sides
Answer: $24.50
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
32.12 meters below sea level. The diver ascended to the surface at a rate of 8.8 m/min. So the diver ascended 3.65 meters a minute.
a) Use d=rt. D=distance, t= minutes, r=rate
d=8.8t
b) The distance will never be a negative number because you can't have a negative distance to something.
c) 3.65 minutes for the diver to reach the surface.
Answer:
y=60 due to adjacent angle
Answer: Choice B and D are both correct.
Step-by-step explanation:
The expression has two adjacent negative signs in the middle. The two negative signs are to be multiplied, which then produces one positive sign.
Choice B is therefore correct because the expression becomes 6+6 which is 6 to the right of the number line where the numbers are increasing.
Choice D is also equally correct because the addition of 6 to 6 equals 12(6+6 = 12).
