Answer:
$5.40
Step-by-step explanation:
First, figure out the cost of the items with tax; for Tommy we have 20*0.08 = 1.6, add that 1.6 to the 20 and his purchase is $21.6, for John we have 25*0.08 = 2, add 2 to his 25 and his purchase is $27. To find the difference we subtract 27-21.6 = 5.4 or $5.40
Answer:
The inverse will be:

Step-by-step explanation:
In order to find the inverse of the equation, we do a variable change, since we are finding the inverse, :



Now solve for y'.
First add 4 in both sides of the equation and change to the left y'.

= x + 4
Second divide by 9
/9 = (x + 4)/9
= (x + 4)/9
Now you will have to clear y, with the square root.
[/tex] =
Simplifying terms


You can check the answer by doing the evaluation of the following equation:
(f o
) (x)
substitute the equation for y' or inverse function 
f(
)
Now substitue the value into f(x)
You will have

=x
½(x+10) = ¼(x+54)
Solving it
x/2 + 5 = x/4 + 13.5
x/2 - x/4 = 13.5 - 5
x/4 = 8.5
x = 8.5 × 4 = 34
If the question is 5m^2 the answer is 80. And if the question is 5m2 then it is 40
