y - x = 1.

or, y= 1+x

y - 2x = 3.

=>1+x -2x= 3 (substituting the value of y)

=>-x= 2

=>x= -2

y = -2+1 = -1

Therefore, x = -2 and y = -1

Randy ordered 3 T-shirts for $25.67 each and one skirt for $23.55 and an 8% tax. What is the total cost of the order?

DerKrebs [107]

KP - break this one down to three parts: Total cost of shirts, total cost of shirts and the skirt, and then including tax.

3 T-shirts for $25.67 each would be 3 * 25.67 = 77.01
Shirts and skirt would be 77.01 + 23.55 = 100.56
Tax can be found quite a few different ways, the easiest of which would be multiplication.

8% = .08

100.56 (total cost of clothes) * .08 (tax) = $8.05

Now just add tax and total cost of the clothes. Because of rounding, our answer might be slightly different but that's okay because it's multiple choice and only 1 answer makes sense!
