(trying to isolate/get x by itself in the equation)
5(x + 6) = 50 Distributive property [distribute 5 into (x + 6)]
5x + 30 = 50 Subtraction [subtract 30 on both sides of the equation]
5x = 20 Division [divide 5 on both sides]
x = 4
Subtraction then division, the 2nd option
Answer:
Domain: x is all real numbers
Range: y is less than or equal to 5
Answer:
The total amount a member pays for an item with a regular price of x dollars is T (x) = 0.963<em>x</em>.
Step-by-step explanation:
Key points:
- Discount is subtracted from the regular price of an item.
- Sales tax is added to the regular price of an item.
It is provided that the customers receive a 10% discount if they are members and all customers must pay 7% in sales tax.
Two functions are provided are:
f (x) = 0.90<em>x </em>; the price of an item after the 10% member discount
g (x) = 1.07<em>x </em>; the total amount customers pay for a purchase after sales tax is applied.
Compute the total amount a member pays for an item with a regular price of x dollars as follows:
T (x) = Discount × Sales Tax
= 0.90 × 1.07 × <em>x</em>
= 0.963<em>x</em>.
Thus, the total amount a member pays for an item with a regular price of x dollars is T (x) = 0.963<em>x</em>.
