Alright so to do this you need some basic algebra
you have to pay an extra 20% of whatever you buy
thus we can make the following equation
.2x+x=20 (since 20 is the amount of money you have)
combining the like terms,
1.2x=20
and finally, dividing both sides by 1.2
x=$16.67
don't forget to check!
.05*16.67=.83 (sales tax makes the total $17.5)
.15*16.67=2.5 (tip makes the total $20)
whaddya you know, it works!
most expensive item you can buy will cost $16.67
hope this helped!
The first equation
6x^2 -18x-24=0
-the graph opens up
6(x^2 -3x -4)=0
6(x^2 -3x +9/4-4-9/4)=0
6(x-3/2)-25x6/4=
6(x-3/2)-75/2
-Vertex is at (3/2, -75/2)
-Axis of symmetry is x=3/2
Second equation
3r^2 -16r -12=0
-the graph opens up

Answer:
is there supposed to be a image there for us to see or no?
Answer:
a. 13/3
b. 3 3/4
d. 1 7/8
c. 7/2
Step-by-step explanation:
a. 4 1/3 given
4*3=12 multiply the whole numbers with the denominator
12+1 =13 add the numerator to the product
13/3 put sum over denominator
b. 15/4 given
15/4=3 with a remainder of 3 divide numerator by denominator
3 3/4 rewrite as mixed number
d. 15/8 given
15/8=1 with a remainder of 7 divide numerator by denominator
1 7/8 rewrite as mixed number
c. 3 1/2 given
3*2=6 multiply whole number by denominator
6+1=7 add numerator to product
7/2 put sum over denominator
