Answer:

x = -2 , y = 4

Step-by-step explanation:

given:

5x + 2y = -2                            <em>*4</em>

4x + 3y = 4                             <em>*5</em>

Solving simultaneously,

    20x + 8y = -8 ....eq 1

(-)  20x +15y = 20  ...eq 2

.............................................

-7y = -28

y = -28 / -7

y = 4

  • if y = 4

using equation 2,

20x +15(4) = 20

20x = -40

x = -2

The same bedroom furniture set costs $1,500 in both Florida and Alabama. The table gives a breakdown of the taxes someone would
vitfil [10]

Answer:

A: True

B, C and D: False

Step-by-step explanation:

We have a total sales tax for Alabama that is:

T_A=4.225+1.375+3=8.6

The total sales tax for Florida is:

T_F=6.5+1+1.625=9.125

The total sales tax is greater in Florida than in Alabama.

A. The furniture set is cheaper in Alabama, because the amount of sales tax will be lower by about $8. TRUE

The sales tax difference in this purchase can be calculated as:

1500(T_F-T_A)=1500\left(\dfrac{9.125-8.6}{100}\right)=1500\cdot 0.00525=7.875\approx 8

B. The furniture set is cheaper in Florida, because the amount of sales tax will be lower by about $10. FALSE (it is cheaper in Alabama)

C. The furniture set is cheaper in Alabama, because the amount of sales tax will be lower by $10. FALSE (the sale tax in Alabama is $129)

The amount of sales tax in Alabama is:

ST_A=1500\cdot T_A=1500\cdot 0.086=129

D. The furniture set costs the same in either state, because the amount of sales tax will be the same for the two locations. FALSE (it is not the same in both states).

Help me plz ASAP<br> A.2<br> B.1/2<br> C.2/3<br> D.3/2
BARSIC [14]

A

Step-by-step explanation:

First and foremost, we can rule out B and C because they are less than one and would make the hexagon smaller instead of bigger. Now, when we measure the units, we see that it goes up by 2 squares on the graph. So, by process of elimination and measurement, we get the answer of A.
