Answer:
Let x = the charge in 1st city before taxes
Let y = the charge in 2nd city before taxes
Set up equation before taxes.
y = x - 1500 eq1
Set up equation for total tax paid.
0.065x + 0.06y = 378.75 eq2
Substitute eq1 into eq2.
0.065x + 0.06(x - 1500) = 378.75
0.065x + 0.06x - 90 = 378.75
0.125x - 90 = 378.75
0.125x = 468.75
x = 3750
Substitute this value of x into eq1.
y = 3750 - 1500
y = 2250
The hotel charge in city one is $3750 and the hotel charge in city two is $2250
Answer:
New Cost of item is 
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Original Cost of item = 
Item was marked down by 
To Calculate Cost after marked down we need to multiply original cost by 50 and then divide by hundred.
Cost after marked down = 
Now New cost of the item is calculated by Subtracting Cost after marked down by Original Cost of item.
New cost of the item = 
<span>b/a=c/d
Two lines are parallel to each other if they have the same slope. So let's look at the options and see which one matches that statement.
b/aâ‹…c/d=â’1
* This is checking to see if the two lines are perpendicular to each other. Almost the exact opposite of parallel. So this is the wrong answer.
b/a=c/d
* b/a is a legitimate slope. c/d is also a good slope. And they're being checked to see if they're equal to each other. So this is the correct answer. But let's see if the next two options will give us a chuckle or two.
b/a=d/c
* b/a is OK. d/c almost looks ok, check the figure. And d/c is NOT a slope. The slope is delta Y over delta X. And d/c is delta X over delta Y. The inverse of the slope. So comparing those two values is meaningless. So it's a wrong answer.
b/aâ‹…d/c=â’1
* And they're trying the inverse of the slope trick again. WRONG. And they're checking if it's perpendicular. Also wrong. So definitely not a good choice.</span>
Answer: sorry i cant read it its to small
Step-by-step explanation:
Since 68% of the sample ranges from the plus minus first standard deviation from the mean, then interval wherein it will occur will be between 53.5% to 60.5%. I got this answer through adding and subtracting one standard deviation (3.5) from the mean (which is 57).
