You can calculate them out and check which one is the most accurate
so if one of the choices was 1/3 of 50, then you would do:
1/3 in the calculator (should be 0.333...) times 50
And you can compare it with the EXACT number, which is:
0.25*53=13.25
This way you can test all the options
Answer:
-50x
Step-by-step explanation:
-6x times 9 which is -54x
-54x-3x = -57x
-54x+7
Answer:
x = - 4, x = 6
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the x- intercepts let y = 0 , that is
- 3(x + 4)(x - 6) = 0
Equate each factor to zero and solve for x
x + 4 = 0 ⇒ x = - 4
x - 6 = 0 ⇒ x = 6
Let x represent the cost of book B
Book A: $17.50
Book B: x
Sales tax: (A + B) x 6% = .06(17.50 + x) = 1.05 + .06x
book A + book B + sales tax = total cost
(17.50) + (x) + (1.05 + .06x) = 44.52 <em>plugged in all of the values</em>
18.55 + 1.06x = 44.52 <em>added like terms</em>
1.06x = 25.97 <em>subtracted 18.55 from both sides</em>
x = 24.50 divided 1.06 from both sides
Answer: $24.50
