Answer:

No Jeremy can not find the cost of the sneakers by adding the percents, you have to the math one sale discount at a time.

The answer is $45.90.

Step-by-step explanation:

You have to multiply $60 by 15%, getting $9. Subtract 9 from 60 and get the first discount price: $51. Then you will multiply 51 by `10% and get 5.1, subtract 5.1 from 51 and get your final sale price $45.90. If you added the percents together you would get an incorrect value of $45. Close but not the correct answer.

Question 2.2. Which ordered pairs make the inequality true?
taurus [48]
<span>Question 2.2. Which ordered pairs make the inequality true?</span><span>2x + y > –4</span>The solutions are (-1, 2) and (1, -5), look at the graph in the attachment.

Question 3.3. What is the slope of the line represented by the equation?

There is no equation

Question 4.4. What is the slope of the line represented by the equation 6x - 3y = 4?

Convert to slope-intercept form:

6x - 3y = 4

Subtract 6x to both sides:

-3y = -6x + 4

Divide -3 to both sides:

y = -6/-3x + 4/-3

Simplify:

y = 2x - 4/3

Now it's in slope intercept form, y = mx + b, where 'm' is the slope. So the slope here is 2.

Question 5.5. What is the simplified form of the expression?

15y - 3(4y + 10)

Distribute -3 into the parenthesis:

15y - 12y - 30

Combine like terms:

3y - 30

Car A travels at 35 miles per hour and Car B travels at a greater speed of x miles per hour. Choose the expression that represen
Rina8888 [55]

Answer:

-2x+25 D

Step-by-step explanation:

To determine how far it will go in an unspecified number of hours, we can let t = time in hours. The letter t will be our variable. Assuming that the car travels at the same speed, we can state that the rate is 55, and that will be our constant. The expression would then be:

Distance of car traveled in t hours, which we can denote as D(t) = 55 x t = 55t

This means that D is a function of t, and D represents the total distance traveled in t hours.
