Answer:

6.6% = tax rate

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is to find out how much was paid in tax

24.91 - 23.37 =1.54

The tax is 1.54

The tax is the original price * tax rate

1.54 = 23.37 * tax rate

Divide each side by 23.37

1.54/23.37 = tax rate

.065896448= tax rate

Changing to percent form

6.6% = tax rate

A larger number is five more than twice the smaller number their sum is 80 find the number

Oksana_A [137]

Answer:

L= 5+2s

Step-by-step explanation:

Let L = the larger # and S = the smaller #.

A large # is 5 more than twice a smaller #.....This gives Eq 1) L = 5 + 2S

Their sum is 80...This gives Eq 2) L + S = 80.

Substitute Eq 1) into Eq 2), you get

L + S = 80

5 + 2S + S = 80

L = 5 + 2S

Find the area of the circle

motikmotik

The formula is $\pi$ r², and to find r, or radius, you divide the diameter by 2. Your radius is 12.5, so you just plug that into your formula, and you have pi(12.5)², and simplify that to pi(156.25) and then your answer is <span>490.873852123. You probably want to round to the nearest hundredth, I don't know if you have specific directions, but if so your final answer would be 490.87.</span>

What is incorrect in this? And how do I correct it?

german

$\bf \begin{cases} y=3x+2\\ -3x+y=2\\ 3x-y=-2\\ ------\\ 6x-2y=10 \end{cases}\implies \begin{cases} 3x-y=-2\\ 6x-2y=10 \end{cases}\implies \begin{bmatrix} 3&-1&|&-2\\ 6&-2&|&10 \end{bmatrix}\\\\ -------------------------------$

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{system's determinant}}{ \begin{bmatrix} 3&-1\\6&-2 \end{bmatrix}\implies (3\cdot -2)-(6\cdot -1)}\implies -6-(-6)\implies -6+6\implies 0 \\\\\\ \stackrel{\textit{systerm determinant of 0 means}}{\textit{the system has \underline{no solutions } or \underline{infinitely many solutions}}}$
