Is the point (3, -2) a solution to the following system of equations? How do you know?

Answer:

YES

Step-by-step explanation:

Any straight line can be represented by an equation of the form

Y = mX + b

where m is the slope and b is the Y intercept, so these two equations are lines. The only solution is where the two lines cross, so must satisfy both equations. Plugging in 3 for X and -2 for Y we get

Y = -3X + 7

-2 = -3(3) + 7

-2 = -9 + 7

-2 = -2 True

AND,

Y = 2X - 8

-2 = 2(3) - 8

-2 = 6 - 8

-2 = -2 True

So since both are true, yes (3, -2)  is the solution.

C seems to make the most sense, logarithmic and exponential functions are not gradual, and a step function just wouldn't fit in my eyes.

If you purchase an ipod that costs $339, how much sales tax will you pay if the rate is 8.375%?
Dominik [7]

The sales tax amount is $ 28.4

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that you purchase an ipod that costs $339

The tax rate is 8.375 %

To find: Sales tax amount

From given,

Cost price = $ 339

Tax rate = 8.375 %

Therefore, sales tax amount is 8.375 % of cost price

Sales\ Tax\ Amount = 8.375 \% \text{ of } 339\\\\Sales\ Tax\ Amount = 8.375 \% \times 339\\\\Sales\ Tax\ Amount = \frac{8.375}{100} \times 339\\\\Simplify\ the\ above\ expression\\\\Sales\ Tax\ Amount = 0.08375 \times 339\\\\Sales\ Tax\ Amount = 28.39125 \approx 28.4

Thus sales tax amount is $ 28.4
