Answer:
Option C is the right answer.
Step-by-step explanation:
1/2 × 1/3 = 1/6
20.90 would be the item before tax. To get the amount of tax, I multiplied 20 by 0.05 and subtracted that amount from 22
Since the two equations equal y, set them equal to each other.
x-1=-2x+5
From there, solve for x.
First get x on one side, by using the addition property of equality.
x-1=-2x+5
3x-1=5
Isolate x by adding 1.
3x=6
Lastly get x all by itself by dividing each side by 3.
x=2
You can now substitute your x-value, 2, into one of the equations (or both, if you wish; either one will result in the same answer.)
y=x-1
y=2-1
y=1
OR
y=-2x+5
y=-2(2)+5
y=-4+5
y=1
Final answer:
x=2 and y=1

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
If x is inversely porportionaly to y, then for some constant k,
Since y is 4 when x = 18, k is equal to 4*18=72, so the equation is:
