Answer:
No, David's answer does not seem reasonable.
Let x= original purchase amount
25x = $10.25, so solve for x by dividing both sides by .25, and you get x = $41.
If the shirt was $18, the shorts must have been $41-$18 = $23 NOT $41.

Step-by-step explanation:
A. Converting 2/9 to a decimal:
-------------------------------------
9 ) 2.0

the quotient is 0.2 recurring (0.2222.........) which can be written as 0.2
You're nearly there. Just some more steps.
557 * x = 594 tells us
x = 594 / 557 (divide both sides by 557)
x ≈ 1.066427
When we've found this number we must realise the following:
the '1' in this answer is the 100% the car fixing costs (without taxes)
the '0.66427' stands for the tax rate.
To find the tax rate we multiply 0.66427 by 100, which gives us:
0.66427 * 100 = 6.6427 ≈ 7
So, rounded to the nearest %, the tax rate is 7%
Answer: 33
To maximize the length of the third side, which I'll call x, it needs to be the longest side.
So by the triangle inequality theorem, 19+15>x, meaning the maximum whole number value of x is 33.
