Answer:

a volleyball is $16.5

Step-by-step explanation:

6b+2v= 114

v=b-3

6b+2(b-3)= 114

6b + 2b - 6

8b - 6 = 114

8b = 108

b= 13.5

substitute b in

6(13.5) + 2v = 114

81 + 2v = 114

2v = 33

v= 16.5

3. Identify the subsets of real numbers that apply to /100/5
Alina [70]

Using number sets, it is found that the correct classification of the number is:

C. rational number, integer, whole number, natural number , real number.

Numbers are classified as:

  • Whole, which is all positive numbers and zero, also called natural.
  • Integers, which is the set of whole numbers plus negatives.
  • Rational, which is the set of integer numbers plus terminating or repeating decimals.
  • Irrational, which are non terminating decimals.
  • Real, which are the sum of rational and irrational.

In this problem, the number given is:

\frac{100}{5} = 20

  • Which is a whole(natural) number, thus it is also integer, rational and real, and the correct option is C.

The sales tax in your city is 8.8%, and an item costs $55 dollars before tax. How much would you pay for that item?
IRISSAK [1]

Answer:

The answer is $ 59.84

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, I know this is not one of the options, but hear me out:

To find the sales tax for that item, you need to multiply the dollar amount by the sales tax (in percent):

$55 * 8.8% = $4.84

So the sales tax is $4.84.  However, the question asks "How much would you pay for that item?", not what the sales tax is.  So I would solve this problem by adding the sales tax to the dollar amount of the item:

$55 + $4.84 = $ 59.84

If you are able to write or type your answer, I would type $ 59.84. If you can only select one of the given values, then I would suggest going with             A: $ 4.84 just because its the only number that is actually relevant at all to the problem.
