Answer:

0.75 could be a 25% discount. 1.06 could be a sales tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

If  p  is the original price, then  1.06p  could be the amount after a 6% tax is include.  Then multiplying by  0.75  could indicate a 25% discount (if you <u>don't</u> pay 25% = 0.25, then you <u>do</u> pay 75% = 0.75).

In case you're wondering about discounting <u>first</u> then charging tax, the result is the same because the multiplication can be done in either order.

0.75(1.06p) = 1.06(0.75p)

determine if the following system of equations has no solutions, infinitely many solutions or exactly one solution. x+y=5 2x-y=-
max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

(2/3, 13/3)    (Exactly one solution)

Step-by-step explanation:

Write these equations in a column:

 x+y=5

2x-y=-3

Note that we can eliminate y immediately by adding these two equations together. We get:

3x = 2, so that x = 2/3.

Substituting 2/3 for x in the first equation, we get:

2/3 + y = 5.  Clear out fractions by multiplying all three terms by 3:

2 + 3y = 15, or 3y = 13.  Then y = 13/3, and the solution is

(2/3, 13/3)      There is exactly one solution.

Two numbers are in the ratio of 3:4. If 9 is subtracted from their sum, the result is 40. What is the greater number?
nikklg [1K]

Answer:

H.28

Step-by-step explanation:

x : y = 3 : 4

=> 4x=3y   => x=3y/4 -----(1)

(x+y)-9=40

=>x+y=49

using (1)

3y/4 +y= 49

y=28

substituting y in (1)

x=21

hence 28 is greater.
