The answer would be B 42 miles.
Answer:
A. With each 9s fact you add another 9, which means you go straight down a row and back one space. This creates a diagonal pattern in the grid.
Answer: $222.73
===========================================
Work Shown:
x = pre-GST price
10% of x = 0.10x = tax amount
x + 0.10x = 1.10x = post-GST price = 245
1.10x = 245
x = 245/1.10
x = 222.7272 approximately
x = 222.73 is the price before tax.
------------
Check:
10% of 222.73 = 0.10*222.73 = 22.273 = 22.27
The tax amount ($22.27) is added to the pre-GST price to get
22.27+222.73 = 245
which matches the post-GST price mentioned.
The answer is confirmed.
Or another way to confirm the answer is to calculate this
1.10*222.73 = 245.003 = 245
y = -1 + 3/8x
2x - 5y = 6
Substitute the first equation into the second equation, since y is already by itself.
2x - 5(-1 + 3/8x) = 6
2x + 5 - 15/8x = 6
2x - 15/8x = 1
16/8x - 15/8x = 1
1/8x = 1 Multiply 8 on both sides to get x by itself
x = 8
Plug x into either of the equations.
y = -1 + 3/8(8)
y = -1 + 3
y = 2
2(8) - 5y = 6
16 - 5y = 6
-5y = -10
y = 2
(8,2)
The answers are B and D hope this helps.
