Cost of each shirt bought by Brain = 14.50
Then
Cost of 2 shirts bought by Brain = 2 * 14.50
= 29
Cost of a pair of shoes = 29.99
Total amount spent by Brain before tax = 29 + 29.99
= 58.99
Percentage of sales tax that needs to be paid = 6%
Amount of sales tax that needs to be [paid = (6/100) * 58.99
= 353.94/100
= 3.54
So
the total amount spent by Brain including tax = 58.99 + 3.54
= 62.53
I hope this is the answer you were looking for.
Answer:
x = 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
-7x - (-5-x) = -9(2x-1) -1
-7x + 5 + x = -18x + 9 - 1
combine like terms:
-6x + 5 = -18x + 8
add 18x to each side of the equation:
12x + 5 = 8
subtract 5 from each side:
12x = 3
divide both sides by 12:
x = 3/12 = 1/4
Remember that there are 16 cups in a gallon.
The pipe leaks 1.5 cups each day, so in one week, or 7 days, the cup leaks 1.5 times 7 cups, which equates to 10.5 cups per week.
To find this number in gallons, divide 10.5 by 16.
This equals .65625 gallons per week.
Hope this helps!

Price of the shoes is let s to be shoe's price and f(s) total shoes:
.05s=f(s)
.05s=1
s= $20
It is already in simplest form, however it can be written as .5 and 50%.
