Answer:

1.07 (15 + x) = 42.80

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

CD= $15

Let the cost of the video game be x

The total cost= 15+x

Hence the equivalent expression is

1.07 (15 + x) = 42.80

open bracket

16.05+1.07x= 42.80

42.80-16.05= 1.07x

26.75=1.07x

x= 26.75/1.07

x= 25

Check

7% tax for CD

=0.07*15

=1.05

total =1.05+15

=$16.05

7% tax for Video game

=0.07* 25

=1.75

total =1.75+25

=$26.75

In all

=26.75+16.05

=$42.8

What is the measure of f in the figure shown?
SCORPION-xisa [38]

Answer:

The measure of angle f is 61°

Step-by-step explanation:

A straight line is 180° meaning;

180 - 98 = 82

82 is the angle measure of the unlabeled angle.

All triangles angles add up to 180° meaning;

37 + 82 = 119

180 - 119 = 61°
