Hey there :)
Before translating the sentence into mathematics, let r represent 'a number'
5 times a number = 5r
2 times that number = 2r
The difference between them = 5r - 2r
* Your equation
5r - 2r
* Solving the equation
= 5r - 2r
= 3r
Answer:
g or h whichever u think is best
Step-by-step explanation:
We have been given that Mr. Luis wants to sell his house. The state he lives in charges a 3.5% sales tax on the sale of a house. The county charges a 3.9% sales tax, and the city charges a 2.2% sales tax.
We are asked to find the total tax, if Mr Luis sells his home for $122,500.
To find total tax, we will add all tax rates as they are being applied to same base.
Now we will find 9.6% of $122,500 to find total tax bill.
Therefore, the total tax bill of Mr. Luis would be 
.
Answer:
xy = -1 and y = -1/x are the same.
They are not linear equations because they are not written in the form
Ax + By = C.
Answer:
W=5
Step-by-step explanation:
W=Width=Length + 1
L = Length
Area = Length * Width = 20
Area = L * W = L * (L+1) = 20
Distribute the L: L^2 + L = 20
Subtract 20 from both sides: L^2 + L -20 = 20-20
Simplify: L^2+L-20=0
Factor (L-4)(L+5)=0
Solve using the zero property: L-4=0, L=4 L+5=0, L=-5
The two options for length are 4 and -5. Only 4 will work for L since it cannot be negative. Width is Length + 1 = 5
