Answer:
First city: $5,500
Second city: $5,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define x as the hotel price in the first city and y the hotel price in the second city. We can start with this equation:
y = x - 500 (The hotel before tax in the 2nd city was $500 lower than in the 1st.)
Then we can say
0.065x + 0.045y = 582.50 (the sum of the tax amounts were $582.50)
We place the value of y from the first equation in the second equation:
0.065x + 0.045 (x - 500) = 582.50
0.065x + 0.045x - 22.50 = 582.50 (simplifying and adding 22.5 on each side)...
0.11x = 605
x = 5,500
The cost of the first hotel was $5,500
Thus, the cost of the second hotel was $5,000 (x - 500)

Answer:
YASSSSSSSS
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
bucket of water = 50.397 lbs
Step-by-step explanation:
Pi(r^2)(h) = volume
3.14(6^2)(12) = 1356.48 in^3 = volume of bucket
one ft^3 = 12 x 12 x 12 = 1728 in^3
1356.48/1728 = 0.785 ft^3 (volume of bucket)
0.785(64.2) = 50.397 lbs
