Step-by-step explanation:
x + y = 985
2.95x + 9.95y = 7343.75
-2.95x - 2.95y = -2905.75
7y = 4438
y= 634 steak sandwiches
x + 634 = 985
x = 351 hot dogs
Lets price of article = x
Tax is 8% of article = 0.08x
x+0.08x=7.02
1.08x=7.02
x=7.02/1.08
x=6.5
The retail price is $6.50.
The coefficient of b is h/2. Multiply the equation by the reciprocal of that.
(2/h)A = (2/h)·(h/2)·b
b = 2A/h . . . . . simplify
