-(-2x-6y=-16)

2x+6y=16
4x-6y=-58

Y's cancel out, then add the rest

6x=-42

divide both sides by six

x=-7

plug x into any previous equation

2(-7)+6y=16

-14+6y=16

6y=30

y=5

Alfredo bought a fishing pole for 60% off it’s original price of $97. If the tax was 4% ( of the sale price), how much did Alfre

maxonik [38]

Answer:

40.4

Step-by-step explanation:

Well...you see, 60% of $97 is equal to 58.2. you can get this by multiplying 97 by 0.60.

so subtract 97 by 58.2 and you will get 38.8, now you will add the tax which is and extra add-on to the prices full value

and it's a 4% tax so you will add for percent to 38.8,

basically multiply 38.8 times 0.04 and you will get 1.6 which you will have to add the your amount to get 40.4.

Point m is the midpoint of kL. M(1,-1) and L(8,-7. What are the coordinates of point k?

Phoenix [80]

Answer: (-6, 5)

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Use the Midpoint Formula: $\dfrac{(x_k, y_k)+(x_L,y_L)}{2}=(x_m, y_m)$

Separate the x's and y's and solve them individually:

$\dfrac{x_k+x_L}{2}=x_m\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad\dfrac{y_k+y_L}{2}=y_m\\\\\\\dfrac{x_k+8}{2}=1\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \dfrac{y_k-7}{2}=-1\\\\\\x_k+8=2\qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad y_k-7=-2\\\\\\x_k\quad =-6 \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad \qquad y_k\qquad =5$
