Subtract to find the amount of tax paid:
1890 - 1800 = 90
Divide the amount of tax by the price of the computer:
90 / 1800 = 0.05
Multiply the decimal by 100:
0.05 x 100 = 5%
The tax rate is 5%
Answer: she made 11 sparkelers and gavin made 21
Step-by-step explanation:
1. Add 5 to both sides
k/3 = 34 + 5
2. Simplify 34 + 5 to 39
k/3 = 39
3. Multiply both side by 3
k = 39 * 3
4. Simplify 39 * 3 to 117
k = 117
Answer:
<em>Mechanic A worked for 5 hours</em> and <em>Mechanic B worked for 15 hours</em>
I hope my answer and explanation helped!
<u>okay to get started you need to make a system of equations:</u>
x= number of hours worked by mechanic A
y= number of hours worked by mechanic B
x + y= 20
95x + 60y= 1375
<u>substitute in an equation:</u>
x + y= 20
y= 20- x
95x + 60(20-x)=1375
<u>Solve for x</u>
95x + 1200 - 60x=1375
35x =175
x= 5
<u>plug in x to solve for y</u>
x + y= 20
5 + y= 20
y=15
<u>Check work</u>
then you're done :D
