Answer: Barbara did not include a variable in the term
, which must represents the number of bottles of iced tea she needs to sell.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let be "x" the number of bottle of water Barbara needs to sell and "y" the number of bottle of iced tea she needs to sell.
She sells iced tea for $1.49 per bottle and water for $1.25 per bottle, so she can write the following equation in order to calculate the number of bottles she needs to sell to earn $100:

Since Barbara wrote this equation:

We can conclude that the error Barbara made in writing the equation was: She did not include a variable in the term
, which must represents the number of bottles of iced tea she needs to sell.
The correct answer is d, i got it right
C) (0.85 + x/100)(250+145) does not give the correct answer.
Explanation
A) works; adding the two costs together is 250+145=395. We multiply this by 0.85 because 100%-15%=85%=0.85. We also have x% tax, which is represented by x/100, added to 100% of the value, or 1.00. Altogether this gives us
395(0.85)(1+x/100) = 395(0.85 + (0.85x/100)) = 395(0.85) + 395(0.85x/100)
= 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x)
B) works; we have 250+145 for the original price; we have 85% = 0.85 of the value; we also have 100% + x%, which is (100+x)/100.
C) does not work; (0.85+x/100)(395) does not take into consideration that you are finding the tax after taking the 85%. This will simplify out to
0.85*395 + (x/100)(395) = 335.75 + 395x/100 = 335.75 + 3.95x, which is too much.
D) works; simplifying the expression from A, we have 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x) = 335.75 + 3.3575x.
Answer:
A =530.66 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
A DVD is a circle so we can use the formula for area of a circle
A = pi r^2
We can find the radius from
r = d/2 where d is the diameter
r = 26/2
r = 13
A = pi *13^2
A = pi *169
Substituting in for pi
A = (3.14) * 169
A =530.66
