Noah is buying a pair of jeans and using a coupon for 10%off. The total price is $56.70 which includes $2.70 in sales tax. Noah’

lora16 [44]

Answer:

See below.

Step-by-step explanation:

So, we know that Noah's purchase can be modeled by the equation:

$x-0.1x+2.70=56.70$

Part 1)

The solution to the equation will be the value of x.

In this case, x will represent the original price of the jeans.

We know that Noah has a coupon for 10% off the original price of the jeans.

So, 0.1x will represent how much of the original price Noah gets a a discount on.

Therefore, (x - 0.1x) represents the total cost of the jeans after the coupon.

So, x is our original price of the jeans.

Part 2)

To verify that 70 is not a solution, we can simply substitute 70 for x and check whether or not the equation is true. So:

$(70)-0.1(70)+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.70$

Multiply:

$70-7+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.7$

Subtract:

$63+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.7$

Add:

$65.7\neq56.7$

However, we can verify that 60 is the solution by substituting. So, substitute 60 for every x:

$(60)-0.1(60)+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}5.7$

Multiply:

$60-6+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.7$

Subtract:

$54+2.7\stackrel{?}{=}56.7$

Add:

$56.7\stackrel{\checkmark}{=}56.7$

So, 60 is indeed the solution and is the value of x.

So, this means that $60 was the original price of the jeans.

Hello!

Throughout this problem, we will add or subtract values from our original balance.

In your checkbook, there was 298.72 dollars, and then you deposited 425.69 dollars. The function you would do is addition.

$298.72 + 425.69 = $724.41

If you wrote a check, then the amount you wrote is removed from your checkbook.

$724.41 - $29.72 - $135.47- $208.28 = $350.94

Then, the bank deducted 5 dollars from your account.

$350.94 - $5.00 = $345.94

This leaves you with $345.94 at the end of the week.

Therefore, your answer is choice C, $345.94.
