The expression 0.09x+(x−30) models the final price of a bicycle with an instant rebate in a state that charges a sales tax. Enter the amount of money of the instant rebate in the box.

Answer :

I believe that the amount of the instant rebate is $30.  X represents the price of the bike, 0.09 is the sales tax. 

So if the bike cost $100:
0.09(100) + (100-30) = 9 + 70 = $79

Although I think I would want them to tax the bike after the instant rebate and not on the original price. 


If I'm wrong about the instant rebate then it would be 1.09x-30.  Hope this helps.

Answer:

The amount of money of the instant rebate is 30.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given expression is

[tex]0.09x+(x-30)[/tex]

This model represents the final price of a bicycle with an instant rebate in a state that charges a sales tax.

Find the initial value of the expression.

Put x=0 in the given expression.

[tex]0.09(0)+(0-30)[/tex]

[tex]-30[/tex]

At the initial stage the price of a bicycle is -30. It means 30 is the amount of rebate.
