Wyatt should charge $9.26 before 8% sales tax  if he does not want customers to pay more than $10.00

They will actually be charged $10 exactly.

9.26*.08= .74

.74+9.26= 10

STALIN [3.7K]
Answer: chicken $8, duck $5

Explanation:

x - the cost of a chicken
y - the cost of a duck

he sold 50 chickens and 30 ducks for $550: 50x + 30y = 550
he sold 44 chickens and 36 ducks for $532: 44x + 36y = 532

50x + 30y = 550                divide by 10
44x + 36y = 550                 divide by 4
______________
50x/10 + 30y/10 = 550/10
44x/4 + 36y/4 = 532/4
______________
5x + 3y = 55                                    
Multiply by (-3)
11x + 9y = 133
______________
5x * (-3) + 3y * (-3) = 55 * (-3)
11x + 9y = 133
______________
-15x - 9y = -165
11x + 9y = 133
______________
Sum up:
-4x + 0y = -32
-4x = -32
x = -32/-4
x = 8

Since 5x + 3y = 55  and x = 8, then:
5 * 8 + 3y = 55
40 + 3y = 55
3y = 55 - 40
3y = 15
y = 15/3
y = 5

almond37 [142]

Answer:

The answer is B ⇒ \sqrt{\frac{V}{15\pi }}=10

Step-by-step explanation:

∵ v = π r² h

∴ r² = \frac{V}{\pi h }

∴ r = \sqrt{\frac{V}{\pi h}}

∵ r = 10 ft and h = 15 ft

∴ 10=\sqrt{\frac{V}{15\pi } }
