Adding the 2 equations will eliminate x because -4x + 4x = 0
so we get
-14y = 28
y = -2
plug this into the second euqtion:-
4x + 14(-2) = -28
4x - 28 = -28
x = 0
answer is x = 0 , y = -2
You take $22,000.00 + $625.00= 22,625.00 (which is the sales tax)
Take $22,625.00 x .06=$1,357.50
Then take $22,625.00 + $<span>1,357.50 +$40.00 = $24.022.50</span>
Answer: x = 8/5
Explanation:
5x-2 = 6
5x = 6 + 2
5x = 8
x = 8/5
Answer:
x ≈ 11.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Using the cosine ratio in the right triangle
cos26° =
=
( multiply both sides by 13 )
13 × cos26° = x , then
x ≈ 11.7 ( to the nearest tenth )
Answer:
256
Step-by-step explanation:
A calculator works well for this.

None of the minus signs are subject to the exponents (because they are not in parentheses, as (-1)^5, for example. Since there are an even number of them in the product, their product is +1 and they can be ignored.
1 to any power is still 1, so the factors (1^n) can be ignored.
After you ignore all of the things that can be ignored, your problem simplifies to ...
(2^2)(2^-3)^-2
The rules of exponents applicable to this are ...
(a^b)^c = a^(b·c)
(a^b)(a^c) = a^(b+c)
Then your product simplifies to ...
(2^2)(2^((-3)(-2)) = (2^2)(2^6)
= 2^(2+6)
= 2^8 = 256
