Answer: The equation is $29 + x*$4.50 = $42.50, and the solution is x = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The data we have is:

Gonzales has $42.50

He wants to buy:

a shirt that costs $29

some bracelets that cost $4.50 each.

The equation that we need to solve is:

Total cost = money that Gonzales has.

The cost is $29 + x*$4.50

where x is the number of bracelets he can buy.

The equation that we need to solve is:

$29 + x*$4.50 = $42.50

to solve it we must isolate x:

x*$4.50 = $42.50 - $29 = $13.50

x = 13.50/4.50 = 3

So we have that Mr. Gonzales can buy a total of 3 bracelets.

Y=4.5x+29 put y=0 so you can solve
0=4.5x+29 minus 29 on both sides to cancel it out
-29=4.5x divide by 4.5 on both sides to find x
-6.44444...=x round to nearest whole number which would be 6 bc he can't have 6.44444 bracelets

lions [1.4K]

Answer:

b) 25/100 x 79

= 19.75

= 79 - 19.75

= $59.25 (before tax)

7/100 x 59.25

= 414.75/100

= 4.15

= 59.25 + 4.15

= $63.4 (after adding tax)

First we have to take out the percentage of discount and minus it from the total cost . To find the discounted price with tax, we have to take out the percentage of the tax from the discounted amount and add it to the discounted amount to get the total cost.

If pr is 3x+14 and qr 7x-10 what is x
mr Goodwill [35]
Start the equation by putting the equations equal to each other 3x+14=7x-10
Next +10 on both sides
3x+14=7x-10
+10 +10
You are left with 3x+24=7x
because the 10's canceled each other out.
Next -3x on both sides
3x+24=7x
-3x +3x

You are left with 24= 10x
because like before the 3's canceled each other out
Now you will divide both sides by 10

24=10x
---- -----
10 10
