Answer:
did it
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
since the unknown amount can buy 100 pencils
he bought 70 pencils
therefore $4.50 can buy 30 pencils
so 1 pencils cost $4.50 /30=0.15
Cost of each shirt bought by Brain = 14.50
Then
Cost of 2 shirts bought by Brain = 2 * 14.50
= 29
Cost of a pair of shoes = 29.99
Total amount spent by Brain before tax = 29 + 29.99
= 58.99
Percentage of sales tax that needs to be paid = 6%
Amount of sales tax that needs to be [paid = (6/100) * 58.99
= 353.94/100
= 3.54
So
the total amount spent by Brain including tax = 58.99 + 3.54
= 62.53
I hope this is the answer you were looking for.
2.2x and 4.4 have a GCF of 2.2. So, you can factor that out like so:
2.2x+4.4 = 2.2*x+2.2*2 = 2.2(x+2)
Hope this helps!
