Answer:

x=5

y=1

Step-by-step explanation:

The substitution method is considered easier because of its simplification.

2x-3y=7 (1)

x+2y=7 (2)

considering equation (2),

x = 7 - 2y (3)

using the value of "x" in (1)

2 (7-2y) - 3y=7

14 - 4y- 3y = 7

14 - 7y = 7

7y = 14 - 7

7y = 7

y = 1 (4)

substituting this value of "y" in (3)

x = 7- 2(1)

x = 5

In Las Vegas, Nevada, stores charge a 4.6% state sales tax and a 3.65% county sales tax. Yuki is purchasing a handbag priced at

GrogVix [38]

Answer:

$18.15

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that In Las Vegas, Nevada, stores charge a 4.6% state sales tax and a 3.65% county sales tax. Yuki is purchasing a handbag priced at $220 before tax.

To find sales tax paid by Yuki for her handbag purchase we will find 4.6% of $220 and 3.65% of $220 and add amount of both taxes.

$\text{Total sales tax amount}=\text{State sales tax amount}+\text{ County sales tax amount}$

$\text{State sales tax for handbag}=220\times\frac{4.6}{100}$

$\text{State sales tax for handbag}=22\times 0.46$

$\text{State sales tax for handbag}=10.12$

Now let us find county sales tax for handbag purchase.

$\text{County sales tax for handbag}=220\times\frac{3.65}{100}$

$\text{County sales tax for handbag}=22\times 0.365$

$\text{County sales tax for handbag}=8.03$

Now let us add both amount to get total tax paid by Yuki.

$\text{Total sales tax}=10.12+8.03$

$\text{Total sales tax}=18.15$

Therefore, Yuki paid $18.15 sales tax for her handbag purchase.

7,676 rounded to the nearest hundred

Gala2k [10]

the nearest hundred spot is 700 for the number. when rounding for hundreds, you use the 2nd digit number. Example, if a proablem asks to round 521 to the nearest hundred it would be 500. Another rule to remember is that anything 5 and above you round up (ex: 589 would round up to 600). Anything below 5 you would round down (ex: 234 would round down to 200). goinf back to the problem, the answer should be 7,700
