Plz help. ASAP!! I CANT FIGURE THIS OUT. A store bought an alarm clock at a cost of $8 and marked it up 65%. Leo bought it and paid 5% sales tax. What was his total cost?

delaney would like to make a 5lb nut mixture that is 60% peanuts and 40% almonds.

she has several pounds of peanuts and several pounds of a mixture that is 20% peanuts and 80% almonds.

let 'p' represent the number of pounds of peanuts needed to make the new mixture, and  

let 'm' represent the number of pounds of the 80% almond-20% peanut mixture.

:

p + m = 5

therefore

m = (5-p)

write an equation based on the percent of peanuts

1p + .2m = .6(5)

replace m with (5-p)

p + .2(5-p) = .6(5)

p + 1 - .2p = 3

p - .2p = 3 - 1

.8p = 2

p = 2/.8

p = 2.5 lbs of peanuts required

then

5 - 2.5 = 2.5 lbs of the peanut/almond mixture required

:

a) what is the system that models this situation?

p + m = 5

1p + .2m = .6(5)

answer: the answer to this problem is yes because 4n + 4 does equal 2m - 6

step-by-step explanation: first you have to calculate 2m - 6 second you have to calculate 4n + 4 finally you have to get your answer

convert the answer to millimeters there are 25.4 millimeters in an inch and 12 inches in a foot so just divide the 5280 feet into a fraction of the numbers till you get to the simplest form you need so (5280 x 12=63360 inches) (63360 x 25.4=1609344 millimeters) (5280/12=440 feet) its as simple as that just break it down to it's simplest form.
