Answer:

  $27.54

Step-by-step explanation:

The straightforward way to do this is to compute the tax and total on each amount, then add those together. There is an easier way.

  ($12.50 + 0.08·12.50) + ($13.00 + 0.08·13.00) = $12.50·1.08 +13.00·1.08

  = 1.08($12.50 +13.00)

  = 1.08·$25.50

  = $27.54

Together, Ron and Harry paid a total of $27.54.

Solve the system of equation
nikdorinn [45]

Answer:

So the Point of intersection is (-4,-2)

Which is option A

Step-by-step explanation:

The given system of equations is

-0.1x - 0.8y = 2              ...................(i)

0.6x - 0.5y = -1.4           ...................(ii)

Let us take equation (i) and use method of substitution for solving it

the equation (i) is

-0.1 x - 0.8y = 2

Adding 0.8y on both sides

-0.1 x + 0.8 y - 0.8 y = 2 + 0.8 y

-0.1 x = 2 + 0.8 y

Dividing both sides -0.1

\frac{-0.1 x}{-0.1}=\frac{0.8 y}{-0.1}+\frac{2}{-0.1}

x = -8 y - 20                     ..........................(iii)

Now we will use this value and put it into equation (ii) to find the value of y

Equation (ii) is

0.6 x - 0.5 y = -1.4

Put value of x

0.6(-8 y - 20) - 0.5 y =-1.4

It becomes

-4.8 y - 12 - 0.5 y = -1.4

adding 12 on both sides

-4.8 y - 0.5 y - 12 + 12 = -1.4 + 12

it becomes by solving

-5.3 y = 10.6

Dividing both sides by -5.3

\frac{-5.3*y}{-5.3}=\frac{10.6}{-5.3}

So

y = -2

Now we have the value of y putting it in equation (iii)

Equation (iii) is

x = -8 y - 20    

Putting value of y

x = -8*(-2) - 20

x = 16-20

x=-4

So the Point of intersection is (-4,-2)
