Cordell Johnson purchased a snow blower for $237.00 and two bags of rock salt for $3.15 each. His total purchase is

$237.00+$3.15+$3.15=$243.30.

If the sales tax rate is 5%, then the sales tax on his purchases is

if x = 1, then the answer is 3.5

x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x

step-by-step explanation:

last month maria hiked the 5-mile mountain trail a number of times and she hiked the 10-mile canal trail several times. let x represent the number of times she hiked the 5-mile trail, and let y represent the number of times she hiked the 10-mile trail. if she hiked a total of 90 miles, which equation can be used to find the number of times maria hiked each trail? x + y = 90 5x – 10y = 90 90 – 10y = 5x 90 + 10y = 5x
