its by 54%
Step-by-step explanation:
because it is raising the price by making money by 54%. and that its using the calculator in any way.
I HONESTLY WOULD THINK THIS COULD BE BIAS ONLY BECAUSE DIFFERENT OPINION ARE INCLUDED BUT AT THE SAME TIME BESTBUY NEVER SAID ANYTHING ABIUT THEM HATING BESTBUY
Its fairly straightforward. Since the bottom equation only has one unknown,x, because y=1.3, you can plug y in and solve for x. Once you find the value of x, you then have the value for two variables, x and y, and again have one unknown coefficient a. To solve for the coefficient you just plug in your y value (1.3) and your x value (which can be rounded to 0.42). Using a little bit of algebra, you can then solve for a which should be a=2.108. I am not sure if your teacher wants you to solve it this way but you could also use the elimination method or substitution method that you would of learned when discussing system of equations. But no matter which way you do it, the math follows the rules. Hope this helps. I’d suggest you solve it yourself to double check my work.

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
nth term = a +(n-1)d
a3 = 116 ; a + 2d = 116 ---------(i)
a7 = 180; a + 6d = 180 -------(ii)
multiply (ii) by -1. so a will be eliminated
a + 2d = 116 ---------(i)
(ii)*-1 <u>-a - 6d = -180</u> -------(ii) { Now add the two equations}
- 4d = -64
d = -64/-4
d = 16
Plug in the value of d in equation (i),
a + 2*16 = 116
a + 32 = 116
a = 116 - 32
a = 84
12th term = 84 + 11* 16 = 84 + 176 = 260
