Answer:
x = 4.31 and y = -1.23 (to the nearest hundredth).
Step-by-step explanation:
y = 16 - 4x
3x + 4y = 8
Substitute y = 16 - 4x in the second equation:-
3x + 4(16 - 4x) = 8
3x + 64 - 16x = 8
-13x = 8 - 64 = -56
x = -56 / -1 3 = 4.308
Plugging this value into the first equation:-
y = 16 - 4(4.308)
= -1.23
Answer:
The rate of sales tax is 6%.
Step-by-step explanation:
First you must subtract 12.50 from 13.25
This brings you to .75
Then, divide .75/12.50 to get 0.06 which is equivalent to 6 percent.
Answer:
last option: y = (-2/3)x + 5
Step-by-step explanation:
slope-intercept equation: y = mx + b
where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept
if slope m = -2/3, then y = (-2/3)x + b
if point (3, 3) is on the line, substitute x=3 and y=3 into the equation and solve for b:
3 = (-2/3)3 + b
⇒ 3 = -2 + b
⇒ b = 5
Therefore, equation: y = (-2/3)x + 5
1777/10000. might simplify
