For this case we have the following variable:
p: cost of the item that Arthur wants to buy before tax
The expression for the 6% tax is given by:
Or equivalently:
Therefore, two different expressions for the total cost are:
Expression 1:
Expression 2:
To prove that they are equal, suppose that the item costs $ 100:
Expression 1:
Expression 2:
Since the cost is the same, then the expressions are the same.
Answer:
Two different expressions that model the problem are:
Answer:
a. -6
b. +6
c. -6
Step-by-step explanation:
minus times plus times plus = -
minus times minus times plus = +
minus times minus times minus = -
1 times 2 times 3 = 6
so:
-1 times 2 times 3 = -6
-1 times -2 times 3 = +6
-1 times -2 times -3 = -6
You can write the problem with a division box, move the divisor decimal point the amount of spaces that it would take to make the number whole. Move the decimal if the dividend the same amount of spaces as the divisor. Move the decimal point directly up above the division bar, divide, check your work
