<h3>
Answers: 48 and 72</h3>
=========================================================
Explanation:
The number 12 is a multiple of 3 because 3*4 = 12.
So when looking for common multiples of 3 and 12, we simply need to look at multiples of 12.
The multiples of 12 are:
- 12, 24, 36, 48, 60, 72, 84, 96, 120, ...
We see that 48 and 72 are on the list. The values 21, 27, 63, 81 are not on the list, so cross them out.
Now we could keep that list of multiples going to see if 844 is on there or not. A better method is to divide 844 over 12. If we get a whole number, then it's a multiple of 12.
844/12 = 70.333 approximately.
This shows that 844 is <u>not</u> a multiple of 12. So we cross 844 from the list.
Only 48 and 72 are multiples of 12 (and also multiples of 3).
Okay. So you have the amount of take, and the tax rate.
To find tax you multiply the amount (x) by the percent of tax in decimal form.
So:
.06x = $1,080
x = $18,000
3 x 50 = 150
150 x 1.25 = 187.5
If you were to buy just brats, you would spend $187.50. So, you would have a spare $12.50, which could buy you 8 more.
3 x 50 = 150
150 x 0.95 = 142.5
If you were to buy just hamburgers, you would spend $142.50. So, you would have a spare $57.50, which could buy you 60 more.

We can rearrange 3x+y=9 to look more conventional by subtracting 3x from both sides and making it y= -3x+9.
Now we want to find a line that is parallel to this and goes through the point (0,-4). We know that -3 is the slope. With this in mind, if we want the other line to be parallel then it must have the same slope so that they never intersect. This gives us one of the numbers we need for the second line.
This means our second equation is looking like; y= -3x+b. This means we need to find b (the y-intercept) but we are also given a point it must go through and this is (0,-4). We simply plug this in into our new equation we need to solve and we get ; -4 = -3(0) + b . "since 0 is the x and -4 is the y" . From this we get that b= -4. This means the equation of a line parallel is:
y = -3x-4
