Answer 2
Answer:

Answer:

a) x = 1 , y = 3

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 7x + 3y = 16

y = 4x - 1

or

3y + 7x = 16 ... (i)

y - 4x = -1 ... (ii)

Solving the simultaneous equation by substitution;

Equation (ii) tells us that y = 4x - 1

Substituting that in (i) gives;

3(4x - 1) + 7x = 16

12x - 3 + 7x = 16

19x = 16 + 3 = 19

x = (19)/(19) = 1

y = 4(1) - 1 = 3

12 gallons of water fill a tank to 3/4 capacity.If the tank is then filled to capacity, how many half-gallon bottles con be filled with the water in the tank?

Answers


We need to find out how many gallons will fill the whole tank

we first write 3/4 into its decimal fraction. 3/4 = 0.75.

Now we form an equation

0.75 = 12

    1 = x     (where x is he number of gallons needed to fill whole tank)

Simplify the equation:

0.75 × x = 12 × 1

0.75x = 12

       x = 12 / 0.75

        x = 16

It will take 16 gallons to fill whole tank to capacity.

Half gallon bottles that can be filled  from the tank are:16 x 2 = 32

So 32 half gallon bottles can be filled from the full tank.

mick paid $2.94 in sales tax on an item that cost $42.00 before tax. At that rate, how much would he pay in sales tax for an item that costs $58.00 before tax?

Answers

Amount of sales tax paid on an item that cost $42.00 is $2.94.

Rate of sales tax paid = 2.94÷42 =0.07 = 7%.

Rate of sales tax paid by Mick is 7%. The question is asking is to find the sales tax he will pay on an item that costs $58 before tax.

Sales Tax paid by Mick on an item costing $58.00 is 7% of $58.00 =0.07 of 58=4.06.

Sales tax paid for an item that costs $58.00 before tax is $4.06.
$62.06

2.94 / 42 = .07 so the sales tax is 7%

Multiply .07 * 58 (you get 4.06) and then add it to 58
