Two blazers at $49.95 each, plus three pairs of pants at $17.50 each, adds up to what pre-tax figure?

The state sales tax is 6.5%. Convert this into a decimal fraction: 0.065.

Multiply the pre-tax figure by 1.065. This includes the pre-tax figure (1) and the sales tax (0.065).

In summary: Final total amount = 1.065 [2($49.95) + 3($17.50)]

Wes will pay $162.31 including tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The price of each blazer = $49.95

Then, the price of two blazers : $2\times49.95=\$99.9$

Also, the price of each pant = $17.50

Then, the price of three pants = $3\times17.50=\$52.5$

Then , the total price of 2 blazers and 3 pairs of pants = $99.9+52.5=\$152.4$

Now, the sales tax = 6.5%=0.065

Then, the tax amount = $0.065\times152.4=\$9.906$

Then, the total amount Wes will pay = Total price + tax amount

$=152.4+9.906=\$162.306\approx162.31$

Hence, Wes will pay $162.31 including tax.

a. we have two

lines: y = 4-x and

y = 8-x^-1

given two simultaneous equations that are both to be

true, then the solution is the points where the lines cross. the intersection is

where the two equations are equal. therefore the solution that works for both

equations is when

4-x = 8-x^-1

this is where the two lines will cross and that is the

common point that satisfies both equations.

b. 4-x = 8-x^-1

x 4-x 8-x^-1

-3 7

8.33

-2 6 8.5

-1 5 9

0 4

1 3

2 2

7.5

3 1 7.67

the table shows that none of the x values from -3 to 3 is

the solution because in no case does

4-x = 8-x^-1

to find the solution we need to rearrange the equation to

find for x:

4-x = 8-x^-1

multiply both sides with x:

4x-x^2 = 8x-1

x^2+4x-1=0

x= -4.236, 0.236

therefore there are two points that satisfies the

equation.

find y:

x=-4.236

y = 4-x = 4 – (-4.236)

= 8.236

y = 8-x^-1 = .236)^-1

= 8.236

x=0.236

y = 4-x = 4 – (0.236) = 3.764

y = 8-x^-1 = 8-(0.236)^-1

= 3.764

thus the two lines cross at 2 points:

(-4.236, 8.236) & (0.236, 3.764)

c. to solve

graphically the equation 4-x = 8-x^-1

we would graph both lines: y = 4-x and y

= 8-x^-1

the point on the graph where the lines cross is the

solution to the system of equations.

just graph the points on part b on a cartesian coordinate

system and extend the two lines. the

solution is, as stated, the point where the two lines cross on the graph.
