Agreed.
x + (x + 1) = 1.10
2x + 1 = 1.10
2x = 0.10
x = 0.5
One could just do some trial and error
0.10 would make it 1.20
0.00 would make it 1.00
So it therefore must be halfway between them

5¢ for the ball and $1.05 for the bat what even is this thread?
>>675368024
The ball costs 5 cents.
>>675369051
go back to >>>/reddit/ with that shitty maymay fagit
>>675368024
$1.10 minus the $1.00 extra that the bat costs, to put them at parity, leaves the $0.10. Each therefore would cost $0.05, ergo the bat is $1.05 and the ball is $0.05.
Are we expected do factor in the taxation in our specific locations?
It's more like 0.99 for the bat and 0.19 for the ball
the ball doesn't exist and the bat represents your closeted homosexual tendencies.

Well, I'll continue then, as taxation is not correctly added if we are specifically referring to the actual cost, and not cost + government remittance:
$1.10 / 5% = $1.0476190
$1.0476190 - $1.00 = $0.0476190
$0.0476190 / 2 = $0.0238095
Cost of the bat is $1.0238095
Cost of the ball is $0.0238095
5% tax on the bat is $0.0511904
5% tax on the ball is $0.0011904
Total cost of the bat and ball is $1.047619
Total tax on the bat and the ball is $0.0563094
Individual cost for the ball including tax is as follows: $0.0249999 but let`s not quibble - the ball costs $0.025 or 2.5 cents.
>>675371837
The final line is off by an order of magnitude (decimal place).
>>675371918
That is step two, you tard. After you set up the system of equations you plug in b + 1 for a and solve the resulting equation (2b + 1 = 1.1). That's how you get b = 0.05 and because a = 1 + b, a = 1.05.

Bat is $1 dollarydoo more than ball.If ball is 10 c , bat is $1.10 so total is $1.20 , therefore you are a dumbarse
Ball = X
Bat = y

The cost of the ball is 5 cents
Holy shit. I love how people actually need algebra for this. Isn't it just obvious? What could it be but 10 cents? It's not fucking $1.05 total.

You both are saying the same solution using x instead of b, your equation is just cutting out the step where you are calling the bat (x+1) instead of using a different variable first. Obviously, there are simple steps that we could skip because we are doing them in our heads, but the below is the full "show your work" solution.
a = 1+b
a+b = 1.10
(1+b)+b = 1.10 <- Same as your answer.
1+2b = 1.10
2b = 0.10
b = 0.05
a = 1.05

Fucking hell, the bat is a dollar more then the ball. If the ball is 0.10$ then the bat is only 0.90$ more than the ball, therefore the ball is 0.05$

if you could use or understand algebra, you'd see that you're an uneducated piece of shit.

>>675368024
5 cents
>>675373696
ball is 5 cents, then bat is a dollar and fice cents
together theyre dollar and 10 cents
>inb4 pretending
>>675373696
no 1 +.05 =1.05 +.05 = 110
The answer is clearly 10 cents cause a dollar from 1.10 is 10.
>>675368024
.05
Ball costs 0.05 bat costs 1.05 for a total cost of 1.10
>>675373696
no, retard.
it the ball is ,05, the bat is a dollar more, making it 1.05.
.05 and 1.05 is 1.10.
>>675368024
A ball is .20 and a bat is 1.20. You get a deal if you buy the two of them together and end up saving .30.
>>675373967
>>675373915
You guys are idiots it says 1 dollar more. not a dollar and five more. Quit being niggers
The world is flat
>>675374008
the premise stated the bat is a dollar more than the ball, so you're retarded, and your mom should have swallowed.
110=100+X+X
110=100+2X
110-100=100+2X-100
10=2X
10/2=X
5=X
>>675374578
Yeah and if the bat is one dollar the ball has to be 10 cents your dumbass. there is no other way around it. 110-100= 10 same notion here.
>>675374520
nope, think harder retard.
>common core
This thread
>>675374520
ball aint free bitch
>inb4 Bernie supporter
>>675368024
TLDR
It is not 10 cents because if the ball were to be 10 cents and the bat costs a dollar more than the ball, that would make the total
10 cents + a dollar more than 10 cents ( 1.10$ ) = 1.20 $
tricky tricky
>>675374858
ok so if you were right.
Your bat is a dollar and the ball is 10 cents. Stay with me now
So if a ball is 10 cents and the bat is 1 dollar more than 10 cents, then the bat would be dollar and 10 cents and the ball 10 cents which makes a dollar and 20 cents.
>>675373476
1.00$ - 10c = 90c
1.05$ - 5c = 1.00$
What's the local sales tax?
>>675370764
thats the whole point isnt it?
if it was straight forward thered be no fun in it
>>675376105
probably incorporated in the price.
We always stole our bats and balls from the idiot muzzie that ran the five and dime.
>>675376222
I was thinking this too. My brain wanted to say 10 cents but I figured that would be too easy, there had to be a catch.
>>675372833
>>675372931
Because that is the correct way to do (not important for this example, but for more complex examples in shitloads of dimensions this becomes important). I did it intuitively and recommend you/anyone else do it the same way because it's quicker.
>>675375659
Every common core thread
Bat = $1.05
Ball = $0.05
1.05 + .05 = 1.10
Easy.
x+x+1=1.1
subtract one from both sides and combines the x's.
2x=0.1
Divide by two.
x=0.5
Bat=1.05
Ball+0.05
Three people check into a hotel room. The clerk says the bill is $30, so each guest pays $10. Later the clerk realizes the bill should only be $25. To rectify this, he gives the bellhop $5 to return to the guests. On the way to the room, the bellhop realizes that he cannot divide the money equally. As the guests didn't know the total of the revised bill, the bellhop decides to just give each guest $1 and keep $2 as a tip for himself. Each guest got $1 back: so now each guest only paid $9; bringing the total paid to $27. The bellhop has $2. And $27 + $2 = $29 so, if the guests originally handed over $30, what happened to the remaining $1?
>>675374858
>Yeah and if the bat is one dollar the ball has to be 10 cents your dumbass
No, the bat is a dollar MORE than the ball. Your retarded math makes the bat only 90 cents more.
>>675378125
ball is actually 3 cents. Bat is a 1.00 plus 0.07 tax 1.07+3= 1.10
>>675378528
You don't add 2 to 27, you subtract it to get back to 25.
>>675366370
Good night egger>>675366370

Ball is for free. Because you have a bat.
>>675378528
the clerk keeps $25 , the bellhop has $2 and the guests get $3 back
$25 + $2 + $3 = $30
>>675378528
Wrong way to look at it. $27 total has been paid by the guests. $25 of that is now in possession of the hotel, and $2 is in possession of the bellhop. There is no "missing dollar."
>>675368024
