Answer:
The purchase price is $180
The total price is: $189
Step-by-step explanation:
Sales tax rate = 5\%
Sales tax on bike = $9
We need to find the purchase price.
Let purchase price = x
We know that Sales tax = 5% of x
and Total price = Purchase Price + Sales tax
So, we can write:
Sales tax = 5% of x
Putting values and finding x
So, the value of x i.e Purchase price = $180
The purchase price is $180
Now finding the total price of bicycle
Total price = Purchase Price + Sales tax
Total price = 180 + 9
Total price = $189
So, The total price is: $189
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Given</u>
<u>Substitute and solve for n:</u>
- 42 = n² + n
- n² + 2*1/2n + 1/4 = 42.25
- (n + 0.5)² = 42.25
- n + 0.5 = √42.25
- n + 0.5 = 6.5
- n = 6

Step-by-step explanation:
if there is nothing missing, we have
x + 25/-8 = -6
in order to compare or add or subtract fractions, we need to bring them all to the same denominator (bottom part).
remember, integer numbers are fractions too. like here
-6 = -6/1
25/-8 = -25/8
so, how can we bring -6/1 to .../8 ?
by multiplying 1 by 8.
but we cannot multiply only the denominator by 8. otherwise we would suddenly have
-6/8
and is -6/8 = -6/1 ? no, certainly not.
to keep the original value of the fraction we have to do the same multiplication also with the numerator (top part).
so, we actually do
-6/1 × 8/8 = -48/8
with this little trick we have now .../8 to operate with, and our transformed fraction has still the same value
-6/1 = -48/8 indeed.
so, we have
x + -25/8 = -48/8
x - 25/8 = -48/8
x = -48/8 + 25/8 = -23/8
No, no value for x will result in you getting the same amount of money
I.e. on the first day if x =2 you earn 33. on the second day you would've earned 44. Of course this may be wrong so best to double check
