Answer:
30.10
Step-by-step explanation:
First find the amount of tax
28 * 7.5%
28 * .075
2.10
Add this to the price of the pants
28+2.10 =30.10
Inequalities and equations use similar steps to solve, but inequalities give a range of numbers that can represent the variable while an equation will give a direct answer.
Example:
4+5x=24
First you would subtract 4 or add the opposite of 4 from 24.
4+5x=24
+(-4) +(-4)
—————
5x=20
Then divide each side by 5 or multiply each side by the reciprocal of 5 to isolate the variable.
1/5*5x=20*1/5 (reciprocal)
X= 4
You would use the same steps in an inequality but end up with a different sign.
The answer to -3-8+(-4) is -15
7.29 but if you have to round up, 8 days
