Answer:

  A. Multiply the purchase price by the tax rate. Then add the result to the purchase price.

<span>The sum of two numbers is 48.
a + b = 48
;
If one third of one number is 5 greater than one sixth of another number,
a = b + 5
multiply both sides by 6, cancel the fractions
2a = b + 30
2a - b = 30
</span><span>use elimination to solve this
a + b = 48
2a - b =30
-------------Addition eliminates b, find a
3a = 78
a = 
a = 26
then
26 + b = 48
b = 48 - 26

A local boys club sold 176 bags of mulch and made a total cost of $520.They sold hardwood mulch for $3.50 per bag and pine bark
ExtremeBDS [4]

Answer:

So here is the answer.

We represent h = hardwood and p = pine bark

Here is the equation: h + p = 176

2.75p + 3.50h = 520

Next, p = 176 -h (substitute)

2.75 (176-h) + 3.5h = 520

484 -2.75h + 3.5h = 520

3.5h-2.75h = 520 -484

0.75h = 36 (divide both by 0.75)

h = 48

Therefore, the number of hardwood sold is 48.

h + p = 176

p = 176-48

p= 128

The number of pine bark sold is 128.

Hope this helps :)
