It is a very simple answer but it works!
Part A.
*To find the sales tax (6%) amount: $18.50 x .06 = $1.11 is the sales tax on a dozen carnations
Part B.
*To find the total cost of a dozen carnations plus the sales tax: $18.50 + $1.11 = $19.61 this is the total cost
38 degrees
x+52=90
90-52=36
Therefore, angle 2 equals 36 degrees
5x + 8y = -29
7x - 2y = -67 ..... multiply both sides by 4
5x + 8y = -29
28x - 8y = -268
33x + 0y = -297
x = -9
(-9, 2)
