y=-7-ax

3x-(-7-ax)=17

omeli [17]

Answer: okay sure!

Step-by-step explanation:

In mathematics, a binary operation is commutative if changing the order of the operands does not change the result. It is a fundamental property of many binary operations, and many mathematical proofs depend on it.

The distributive property tells us how to solve expressions in the form of a(b + c). The distributive property is sometimes called the distributive law of multiplication and division. ... Then we need to remember to multiply first, before doing the addition!

What is 39.79949748 rounded to the nearest hundredth?
Rufina [12.5K]

Answer:

Number = 39.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Number = 39.79949748

Required

Approximate (to the nearest 100th)

This means that, we approximate at the second digit after the decimal.

So:

i.e,

Number = 39.79  [Begin  approximation] 949748

The first digit after [Begin approximation] is then approximated using the following rule:

0 - 4 \approx 0

5 - 9 \approx 1\\

Since 9 falls in 5 - 9 \approx 1\\ category, the number becomes:

Number = 39.[79+1]

Number = 39.80

The price for each reindeer harness is 17.95 what is the price for reindeer harnesses? Challenge if tax rate is 14% , how much w
mafiozo [28]
To find the percentage of any number you divide your percentage by 100 to get a decimal. 14 ÷ 100 =0.14 then in this case you need to find the number you want to find 14% of . Each reindeer harness is 17.95 so 17.95 * 9 = 161.55 so now you take 161.55 and multiply it by the decimal to get the percentage of 161.55 which equals 22.617 so now add the tax and the cost of the reindeer harnesses and you got your answer :)
