it is given in the question that

You order two tacos and a salad.the salad cost $2.50.you pay 8% sales tax and leave a $3 tip.

Let the price of taco be $ x .

And 8 % of 2.50 is

=0.08*2.50 = 0.20

So the equation is

2x+ 2.50+0.2+3 = 13.80
\\
2x + 5.70 =13.80
\\
2x = 8.10
\\
x = $4.05

So the price of the Taco is $4.05 .

How many solutions does this linear system have?
Naily [24]
B. y=2x-5
    -4y=8x-20
    y=-2x+5
    2x-5=-2x+5
        x=2.5
    2x*2.5-5=0
    -2x*2.5+5=0
so (2.5,0)

A ladder of length 2x+1 feet is positioned against a wall such that bottom is x-1 feet away from a wall. The distance between th
Natali5045456 [20]
So leangh of ladder=2x+1

bottom edgre=x-1
wall edge=2x

so therefor, since this is a right triangle, use pythagorean theorem
a^2+b^2=c^2
c=hypotonues=longest side
b and a=sides touching the right angle

so x-1 and 2x are a and b
2x+1=c

subsitute
(x-1)^2+(2x)^2=(2x+1)^2
x^2-2x+1+4x^2=4x^2+4x+1
add like terms
5x^2-2x+1=4x^2+4x+1
subtract 1 from both sdies
5x^2-2x=4x^2+4x
subtract 4x from both sdies
5x^2-6x=4x^2
subtract 4x^2 from both sides
x^2-6x =0
factor out the x using distributive property which is
ab+ac=a(b+c)
x^2-6x=x(x-6)
(x)(x-6)=0

if xy=0 then assume x and/or y=0
x=0
we remember that one of the side legnths is 2x and if x=0 then the side legnth=0 which is not possible, so we discard

x-6=0
add 6 to both sides
x=6

subsitute and solve


legnth of ladder=2x+1
x=6 subsitute
2(6)+1=12+1=13
legnth of ladder =13 feet

height=2x
2(6)=12
height=12 feet

base=x-1
6-1=5



legnth of ladder=13 feet
height=12 feet
base=5 feet
