Mr. Luis wants to sell his house. The state he lives in charges a 3.5% sales tax on the sale of a house. The county charges a 3.

GarryVolchara [31]

We have been given that Mr. Luis wants to sell his house. The state he lives in charges a 3.5% sales tax on the sale of a house. The county charges a 3.9% sales tax, and the city charges a 2.2% sales tax.

We are asked to find the total tax, if Mr Luis sells his home for $122,500.

To find total tax, we will add all tax rates as they are being applied to same base.

$\text{Total of tax rates}=3.5\%+3.9\%+2.2\%$

$\text{Total of tax rates}=9.6\%$

Now we will find 9.6% of $122,500 to find total tax bill.

$\text{Total tax bill}=\$122,500\times \frac{9.6}{100}$

$\text{Total tax bill}=\$1225\times 9.6$

$\text{Total tax bill}=\$11,760$

Therefore, the total tax bill of Mr. Luis would be $\$11,760$ .

At a bake sale, as student spent $11.00 buying 3 brownies and 5 cookies. His friend spent $3.95 buying 1 brownie and 2 cookies.

dybincka [34]

Answer:

$2.25

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "b" be the price of 1 brownie and "c" the price of 1 cookie.

At a bake sale, a student spent $11.00 buying 3 brownies and 5 cookies. Symbolicaly,

3 b + 5 c = 11.00 [1]

His friend spent $3.95 buying 1 brownie and 2 cookies. Symbolicaly,

1 b + 2 c = 3.95

b = 3.95 - 2c [2]

If we replace [2] in [1], we get

3 (3.95 - 2c) + 5 c = 11.00

11.85 - 6c + 5c = 11.00

c = 0.85

If we replace c = 0.85 in [2], we get

b = 3.95 - 2 (0.85) = 2.25

Tell whether the given number is a solution of each question. ( Must show work for credit)

guajiro [1.7K]

Answer/Step-by-step explanation:

1. $9 = 2a + 3$ ; 3

Let's solve for a.

$9 - 3 = 2a$ (subtraction property of equality)

$6 = 2a$

$\frac{6}{2} = a$ (division property of equality)

$3 = a$

$a = 3$

Therefore, 3 is a solution to 9 = 2a + 3

2. $5n - (-30) = 5$ ; 7

$5n + 30 = 5$ (- × - = +)

$5n = 5 - 30$ (Subtraction property of equality)

$5n = -25$

$\frac{5n}{5} = \frac{-25}{5}$ (division property of equality)

$n = -5$

Therefore, 7 is not a solution of $5n - (-30) = 5$

3. $4.4r - 2.8 = 1.6$ ; 1

$4.4r = 1.6 + 2.8$

$4.4r = 4.4$

$\frac{4.4r}{4.4} = \frac{4.4}{4.4}$

$r = 1$

Therefore, 1 is a solution of $4.4r - 2.8 = 1.6$ .
