I believe the first answer should be correct :))
Answer:
y = x + 12
y + x = 52
x = 20
y = 32
Step-by-step explanation:
Make a system of linear equations using x and y to represent the players on the soccer and field hockey team respectively:
y = x + 12 (this shows how many players are on the hockey team)
y + x = 52 (this shows that there are 52 players total from both teams)
Solve for the variables using either elimination or substitution:
y + x = 52
(x + 12) + x = 52
2x + 12 = 52
2x = 40
x = 20
Then plug x into the first equation:
y = x + 12
y = (20) + 12
y = 20 + 12
y = 32
Ok like what kind of math problems
The following statement describes a rebate -
A.) The Shopper receives a discount now and pays sales tax on the discounted price of the item.
Explanation:
This option is correct because a rebate is described as a discount and one gets its benefit when one pays the tax on the discounted item. The discount is given at the same moment and the tax is paid on the same price.
