Answer:

The adjustment to the equation is made by dividing the tax amount by the percentage to unveil the original cost. Dividing by the percent acts as the inverse to the multiplication by the percent.

x(1.06)=5.25

The factor of 1.06 appears because it represents the original price along with the tax. To isolate x, we can divide both sides by 1.06, which gives x about 4.95.

Thus, approximately $4.95 is the camera's cost rounded to the closest cent.

lawyer [12517]

Answer:

The repair of the stretch of road will require

weeks to finish.7\frac{1}{3}

Step-by-step explanation:

Provided:

Length of the roads needing repair =

Length of the road workers can fix in a week = 16\frac{1}{2}\ km

To ascertain how many weeks it will take to mend this road stretch.2\frac{1}{4}\ km

Solution:

Worker's road repair rate =   per week.

Overall road length to repair =

2\frac{1}{4}\ km

The time required to repair 16\frac{1}{2}\ km

of road by the workers can be calculated: 16\frac{1}{2}\ km⇒

When dividing mixed numbers, we change them first into fractions.\frac{16\frac{1}{2}\ km}{2\frac{1}{4}\ km}

To compute fraction division, we take the reciprocal of the divisor and substitute division with multiplication:

⇒  \frac{\frac{33}{2}} {\frac{9}{4}}

We revert the fraction back into a mixed number.

Thus, it will take

weeks to complete the road repair task.\frac{33}{2}\times \frac{4}{9}

This question is quite lengthy, so I will offer a brief overview. To find your x-value, set y to 0 in the given equation.

2x + 3y = 1470

2x + 3(0) = 1470

2x = 1470

x = 735

Thus, your farthest point on the x-axis is (735,0).

Now, repeat for y.

2x + 3y = 1470.

2(0) + 3y = 1470

3y= 1470

y= 490

Your highest point thus is (0,490).

After plotting both points, connect them with a straight line to illustrate your graph.
