Answer:
, solution is $14.29
Step-by-step explanation:
We can create an equation for this scenario to try and solve it.
Assuming the cost of the CD is x, it’s sale tax will be 0.05x (as that is 5% of x, 0.05.)
We can write the equation in two ways:
or
.
Assuming we take the second one (easier to work with), we can divide both sides by 1.05. The equation simplifies to x = 14.289... which rounds to x = 14.29.
Therefore, the equation is
and the solution is $14.29.

Answer: y ≤ -x + 2
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
There are an infinite number of possible solutions.
Plot the two points, draw any line between them such that the two points are NOT connected, then choose the inequality symbol that shades (-1, 3).
Here is one solution that satisfies the requirements. y ≤ -x + 2
Here is another: y < -x + 3
And another: y > x + 3
And one more: y ≥ x + 4
4x-2y=8 ==> y=2x-4 (to better show you what I mean)
2 lines are parallel if they have the same slope (m the coefficient of x).
So y=mx + b // y =2x-4 means m=2 & y=mx + b, becomes y=2x + b.
Moreover they are telling us that this function passes by (-2,1), where -2 represents x & 1, represents y. To calculate b , replace x & y by their values:
y=2x+b ==> 1 = 2(- 2) + b==> 1 = -4 + b ==> b= 5. Finally the equation is
y=-2x+5
Sorry I cant see the problem
