Answer:

Let x = the charge in 1st city before taxes

Let y = the charge in 2nd city before taxes

 

 

Set up equation before taxes.

 

y = x - 1500        eq1

 

 

Set up equation for total tax paid.

 

0.065x + 0.06y = 378.75         eq2

 

 

Substitute eq1 into eq2.

 

0.065x + 0.06(x - 1500) = 378.75

0.065x + 0.06x - 90 = 378.75

0.125x - 90 = 378.75

0.125x = 468.75

       x = 3750

 

Substitute this value of x into eq1.

 

y = 3750 - 1500

y = 2250

 

 

The hotel charge in city one is $3750 and the hotel charge in city two is $2250

Answer:

The terai region extends from the chure range in the north to the border of India in the south.lt covers 17 percent of total land of Nepal .this terai region is mostly flat and plain with alluvial fertile deposited by the rivers . the climate of the reason is hot and wet in summer and cold and dry in winter.Terai also called the granary of Nepal as more than half percent of people of Nepal depend on the vegetation of Terai region. Terai is plain, where more cultivation is possible. Cultivation is impossible in mountain region due to difficult topography and temperate region and even in hilly region with lots of vegetation it's not possible due to slope area. Terai is only the possible region where much cultivation is possible. Different kinds of vegetation, valuable medicinal herbs, important trees, etc. are found in Terai region. So, Terai region is called the granary of Nepal.The terai region extends from the chure range in the north to the border of India in the south.lt covers 17 percent of total land of Nepal .this terai region is mostly flat and plain with alluvial fertile deposited by the rivers . the climate of the reason is hot and wet in summer and cold and dry in winter.Terai also called the granary of Nepal as more than half percent of people of Nepal depend on the vegetation of Terai region.

Quadratic 6X2 + 5X = -7
poizon [28]
Ok, so here your being asked to solve 6x2<span> + 5x = -7 

The procedure that I did was using this formula it led me to get the following:
</span>Using the formula:

x = -(-5) ± √(-5)² - 4(6)(-6)/ 2(6)
x = 5 ± √ 25 + 144 / 12
x = 5 ± √ 169 / 12
x = 5 ± 13/12

x1 = 5 + 13/12
x1 = 18/12
x1 = 3/2

x2 = 5 - 13/12
x2 = -8/12
<span> x2 = - 2/3 

Hope this helped :)</span>
