Answer:
1/6
Step-by-step explanation:
The product will only be of the required form if the two chosen factors are of the form (x +by) and (x -by).
For the factor (x+y), there is also a factor (x-y) on the list. For the factor (x+5y), there is no factor (x-5y) available.
So, of the (4·3)/2 = 6 possible ways to choose two expressions from the four given expressions, only one pair of the 6 will have a product of the required form.
The probability is 1/6.
If you were to make both x's equivalent, you'd have to multiply the first equation by 2 to get rid of the coefficient, 1/2. However, you'd have to multiply 2 onto -8 as well, therefore the equation would turn into x - 16 = 18. That is not equivalent to x - 8 = 18.
Answer: $14.31
Step-by-step explanation:
Assuming it is the final price Natalie paid that you want:
Selling price = 0.9 * 15
= $13.50
To cater for tax it was then multiplied by 1.06:
= 13.5 * 1.06
= $14.31
