In this question, we are required to find the total amount he paid to buy the shirt.
It is given that sales tax is 5.5 % over the amount paid.
The cost price of the shirt = $ 24.
The total amount will be = Cost price + 5.5 % of Cost price
Or
Total amount paid = $ 24 × 1.055 (i.e. 100 % + 5.5 %)
Total amount = $ 24 + (5.5 % × $ 24)
Total amount paid = $ 24 + $ 1.32 = $ 25.32
I belive the answer to be b
Answer:
x = 30
Step-by-step explanation:
in order to solve for the value of x in the expression 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 )
we will first of all open the brackets and then evaluate for the value of x by combining the like terms.
from 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 )
6x -12 = 8x -72
combine the like terms
6x - 12 + 72 = 8x
-12 + 72 = 8x -6x
60 = 2x
divide both sides by the coefficient of x which is 2
60/2 = 2x/2
30 = x
x = 30
therefore the value of x in the expression 6 ( x − 2 ) = 8 ( x − 9 ) is equals to 30
X=8.
Following the similarity statement, we know that AC is to DF as BC is to EF. The ratio would be:
24/(x-2) = 20/5
Cross multiply:
24*5 = 20(x-2)
Use the distributive property:
120 = 20x - 40
Add 40 to both sides:
120+40 = 20x - 40 + 40
160 = 20x
Divide both sides by 20:
160/20 = 20x/20
8 = x
Answer:
-3/5
Step-by-step explanation:
to figure that out you have to do y^2 - y^1/ x^2 - x^1
2-(-1)/ -3 - 2
= 3/-5
=-3/5
