There is only one solution in the given equation -y2 − [-5y − y(-7y − 9)] − [-y (15y + 4)] = 0. In solving this problem, apply first PEMDAS (parenthesis, exponents,multiplication, division, addition, subtraction). Then equation will transform into -y2+5y-7y2-9y+15y2+4y=0. Combine terms with same power and achieve 7y2=0. Divide both sides with 7 and perform square root of zero. Since the root is zero, we have one solution of the given equation which is y=0.
Lets price of article = x
Tax is 8% of article = 0.08x
x+0.08x=7.02
1.08x=7.02
x=7.02/1.08
x=6.5
The retail price is $6.50.
Answer:
-1.0 and 1
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
The width is 8 units
Step-by-step explanation:
This is a variation problem we are to work with.
Length is inversely proportional to width, let length be l and width be w
modeling the statement mathematically, we have lw = k where k is the proportionality constant
Now let’s get k from l = 12 and w = 6
k = 12 * 6 = 72
Now for the second rectangle also;
lw = k given l = 9
9w = 72
w = 72/9
w = 8
