This is your answer:
if then number is $499.49 that would mean it rounds down to $499.00
but in your case $499.76 rounds to $500.00
(Remember .50 and up goes up!)
Therefor your answer is $500.00
Answer:
-18
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be our number. First we have to write our equation.
The product of a number and -8 is represented as -8x (-8 multiplied by x). Remember that 'product' signifies multiplication.
The result is eight times the sum of x and 36. This is represented as 8(x + 36). We add x and 36 first because 8 has been multiplied by the sum of those two numbers.
So our equation is:
-8x = 8(x + 36)
We can now solve for x. First, expand the bracket.
-8x = 8x + 288
Next, subtract 8x from both sides. This will give us only one term containing x, which will make it easier to solve.
-8x - 8x = 8x + 288 - 8x
-16x = 288
Divide both sides by -16
x = -18
Judging by the problem you want me to use substitute method
Since why equals 1/2x-1 you
Do 2(1/2x-1)= x-2
You multiple by 2 cause there’s two on the top for y. So the problem is now 4x-x-2
Combine like terms 3x+2=14
Subtract two on both sides
3x=12
X=4
Go back to the bottom since u know x now do y= 4.1/2-1 solve to get one
Y=1 so your answer is (4,1)
