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

Which equation illustrates the identity property of multiplication? (a + bi) × c = (ac + bci) (a + bi) × 0 = 0 (a + bi) × (c + d
labwork [276]

Answer:

(a + bi) \times 1 = (a + bi)

Step-by-step explanation:

The identity property means that whatever you put in is whatever comes out. Notice that if we multiply 1 with any number, we get that number back. So multiplying by 1 is the identity property of multiplication.

PLEASE ANSWER QUICK!!
Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

A)  B is greater

B) when C = 21, A = 5 and B = 15

C) A must be 0, 5, or 12 for C to be greater than B

Step-by-step explanation:

A)  when a = -3, c = -20 and b = 4(-3)-5 so B = -17

B) when c = 21, a = 5 and b = 4(5)-5 so B = 15

C) C is greater than B when a = 0, 5, and 12

when a = 0, b = 4(0)-5 or -5

when a = 5, b = 4(5)-5 or 15

when a = 12, b = 4(12)-5 or 43
