Answer:

Both Jared and Nicole are correct. You can solve for either variable and use the equivalent expression to create a one-variable equation. Then you can solve. Jared would have created a one-variable equation that can be used to solve for x, whereas Nicole would have created a one-variable equation that can be used to solve for y.

Step-by-step explanation:

this is the sample response

I can say that Jared and Nicole are correct because they manipulated the equation right. They can either write the equation as y as a function of x then substitute it to the y in the other equation and solve for x. They can also write the equation as x as a function of y and substitute it to x in the other equation and solve for y. For both solution, they will still obtain the same answers.

A flashlight costs $12.00. The sales tax is 6%. What is the amount of the sales tax?
oksano4ka [1.4K]
12.00x0.06, which is 0.72, so the sales tax is 72 cents. Basically, what you do to answer these kinds of questions is divide the percentage by 100 (6/100=0.06), because the percentage is out of 100%. Then you multiply that number by the price to get the sales tax. If you wanted to find the total price, add the tax you found to the original price ( in this case would give us $12.72 )

Hope this helps!

Nick planted a cedar tree. It grew 10 cm in ½ of a year. What will the height of the tree be at the end of 6 years?
user100 [1]

Answer:

120 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

1/2 is 6 months and 6 years are 72 months.

Using the rule of three, 10 cm is to 6 months what x is for 72 months so

x = (72 * 10) / 6 = 120
