Hi
609.9 ⇒ 85%
x ⇒ 100%
85x = 100·(609.9)
85x = 60,990
x = (60,990)/85
x = 717.5294117... ≈ 717.53
85% of 717.53 ⇒ 0.85 × 717.53 = 609.9005 ≈ 609.9
Answer: 717.53
Regroup terms
Add 2x to both sides
Simplify 4 - x + 2x to 4 + x
subtract 4 from both sides
subtract -6 - 4.
Answer: x = -10
Change 212,514 into 215,000.
Change 396,705 into 400,000.
--------
Estimate:
215,000 + 400,000 = 615,000
Therefore:
212,514 + 396,705 ≈ 615,000
Using proportions, the selling prices are given as follows:
1. $46.92.
2. $15.29.
3. $17.16.
4. $20,280.
<h3>What is a proportion?</h3>
A proportion is a fraction of a total amount, and the measures are related using a rule of three.
To find the selling prices, we have to multiply the original prices by either 1.02(2% sales tax) or 1.04(4% sales tax), hence they are given as follows:
- 2. 14.99 x 1.02 = $15.29.
- 3. 16.50 x 1.04 = $17.16.
- 4. 19500 x 1.04 = $20,280.

Answer:
A) y-4=-1/2(x+6)
Step-by-step explanation:
m=(y2-y1)/(x2-x1)
m=(0-4)/(2-(-6))
m=-4/(2+6)
m=-4/8
simplify
m=-1/2
y-y1=m(x-x1)
y-4=-1/2(x-(-6))
y-4=-1/2(x+6)
