Answer:

C should be next

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok after you add 3x to both side you should get this:

5=5x+9

It makes since o subtract 9 from both sides at least for me.

Hope this helps :D

Solve for r and t:<br> 6r - 3t = 6<br> 6r + 8t = -16
MAVERICK [17]
Multiply the first equation with (-1)
you should get this

-6r + 3t = -6
6r + 8t = -16

start to eliminate

11t = -22

divide by 11

t = -2

substitute 

6r - 3(-2) = 6
6r + 6 = 6
6r = 6 - 6
6r = 0 
r=0

Ralph buys a desk that regularly sells for $250 and a desk chair that regularly sells for $145. both items are on sale at 15% of
Lunna [17]
C) (0.85 + x/100)(250+145) does not give the correct answer.

Explanation
A) works; adding the two costs together is 250+145=395.  We multiply this by 0.85 because 100%-15%=85%=0.85.  We also have x% tax, which is represented by x/100, added to 100% of the value, or 1.00.  Altogether this gives us 
395(0.85)(1+x/100) = 395(0.85 + (0.85x/100)) = 395(0.85) + 395(0.85x/100)
= 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x)
B) works; we have 250+145 for the original price; we have 85% = 0.85 of the value; we also have 100% + x%, which is (100+x)/100.
C) does not work; (0.85+x/100)(395) does not take into consideration that you are finding the tax after taking the 85%.  This will simplify out to
0.85*395 + (x/100)(395) = 335.75 + 395x/100 = 335.75 + 3.95x, which is too much.
D) works; simplifying the expression from A, we have 395(0.85) + 395(0.0085x) = 335.75 + 3.3575x.

Create a set of coordinates to model a relation that is linear function.
weqwewe [10]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The following points (coordinates) lie on a straight line with slope 3:

(1, 0), (2, 3), (3, 6), (4, 9) ... and so on

So the linear function is y = 3x + b, where b is the y-intercept.
