Answer:
Let x = the charge in 1st city before taxes
Let y = the charge in 2nd city before taxes
Set up equation before taxes.
y = x - 1500 eq1
Set up equation for total tax paid.
0.065x + 0.06y = 378.75 eq2
Substitute eq1 into eq2.
0.065x + 0.06(x - 1500) = 378.75
0.065x + 0.06x - 90 = 378.75
0.125x - 90 = 378.75
0.125x = 468.75
x = 3750
Substitute this value of x into eq1.
y = 3750 - 1500
y = 2250
The hotel charge in city one is $3750 and the hotel charge in city two is $2250
Answer:
75%
Step-by-step explanation:
For this case, the first thing we will do is name variables:
a: percentage from ticket sales
b: ticket sales
We have then:
a = 75%
b = (0.75) * (3200) = $ 2400
Answer:
a = 75%
b = (0.75) * (3200) = $ 2400
The amount of ticket sales is $ 2400.
I did some math and i got this
x = -2
Answer: x = 0; y = 2; z = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
x+2y+z=9
x-y+3z=13
2z=10
==
Start with the last equation: 2z = 10, therefore z = 5 [easy]
Let's rewrite the second equation with 1) z=5, and 2) rearrange to find x:
x-y+3z = 13
x - y +3*5 = 13
x = y-2
Now use the values for x [(y-2)] and y [5] in the first equation:
X+2y+z=9
(y-2) +2y + 5 = 9
3y +3 = 9
3y = 6
y = 2
Now that we have y [2] and z [5], let's use the first equation to solve for x:
x+2y+z=9
x + 4 + 5 = 9
x + 9 = 9
x = 0
====
Try the three values (x=0, y=2, and z=5) in any of the formulas. The result should/will equal the number shown.
Answer:
20.9048
Step-by-step explanation:
37.33% of 56 = 0.3733 × 56 = 20.9048
i hope this is what you meant. 37.33% of 56 is 20.9048
