C.) 344.50
Take what she paid before tax (325) and multiply it by 1.06 (the tax rate) and there's your answer.
Hey there!
Since we don't have values for b, d, and r, we can't get a specific number for the value of a, if that makes sense. It'll be represented by these variables.
To solve, we need to make sure the equation looks like a = ? .
Subtract b from each side of the equation.
<u>a = dr - b </u>
Now we have solved for a.
Hope this helps!
Answer: The cost of 16 pencils and 10 notebooks is $5.84.
Explanation: You can solve this using linear systems:
Let X be the cost per pencil, and let Y be the cost per notebook.
(1) 7x+8y=4.15
(2) 5x+3y=1.77
Choose a variable to eliminate. I’ll eliminate X first as an example. To eliminate a variable, you must have the same coefficient beside the variable for both equations.
Equation 1 now becomes:
(3) 35x+40y=20.75
Equation 2 now becomes:
(4) 35x+21y=12.39
Now that you have 35 as a coefficient for X in both equations, you can subtract the two equations to officially eliminate it!
(3)-(4)
19y=8.36
y=0.44
Now that you have the value of Y, substitute that value into either one of the equations to get X.
Substitute y=0.44 in (1)
7x+8(0.44)=4.15
7x+3.52=4.15
7x=0.63
x=0.09
Therefore, the cost per pencil is $0.09/pencil and the cost per notebook is $0.44/notebook.
Almost done lol...
To find the cost of 16 pencils, multiply 0.09*16. That gives you $1.44, which will be the cost of 16 pencils.
The cost of 10 notebooks is 0.44*10, which gives you $4.40. That’s the cost of 10 notebooks.
To find the total price, add these values together!
1.44+4.40=5.84
Therefore, the cost of 16 pencils and 10 notebooks is $5.84.
Hope that helps シ
A cube has 6 sides (like a dice)
if one side is 14 cm ^2
that means that we have to multiply it by 6
so 14 (cm 2) x 6 = 84cm 2
