Given that the basket of watermelons sells for $9 before tax and the tax rate is 9%.
The tax on the basket of watermelons is given by

Therefore, the total price Tiffany pays for the basket of watermelons is $9 + $0.81 = $9.81
* Craig's answer is not reasonable because to add fractions the denominators must be the same.
** Total distance = 5/8 + 1/2 = 5/8 + 4/8 = 9/8 miles
*** Using the line number to prove the answer:
The line number that represents the problem is in the attached figure.
while the distance between 0 and 1 divided to 8 sections
to represent (5/8) count 5 sections from zero ⇒⇒⇒ point (a)
and to represent (1/2) it is the midpoint between 0 and 1 which mean it is 4 sections but it will be counted from point (a) so, adding 4 sections to point (a) the result will be the point (b)
So, counting from 0 to point (b) will give us 9 sections
and while one section represents (1/8)
So the total distance will be 9 * (1/8) = 9/8 which is agree with the result obtained before
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Total money = $600
Bicycle cost = $253.98
3 bicycle reflector = 3×$7.5 =$22.5
Bicycle helmet = $42.36
Total money spent will be equal to the = $(253.98+22.5+42.36)
= $318.84
Amount remaining = $(600-318.84)
= $281.16
The number of outfit he can get at $78.12 = $281.16/78.12 = 3.60
He can get 3 outfit and have $0.60
Left
The solution to this system is (x, y) = (8, -22).
The y-values get closer together by 2 units for each 2-unit increase in x. The difference at x=2 is 6, so we expect the difference in y-values to be zero when we increase x by 6 (from 2 to 8).
You can extend each table after the same pattern.
In table 1, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 8.
In table 2, x-values increase by 2 and y-values decrease by 6.
The attachment shows the tables extended to x=10. We note that the y-values are the same (-22) for x=8 (as we predicted above). That means the solution is ...
... (x, y) = (8, -22)
