Peter works at a bookstore. He packed 3 identical paperbacks and 2 identical textbooks in a box. The total mass of the books was

Alexus [3.1K]

If we let p and t be the masses of the paper and textbook, respectively, the equations that would best represent the given in this item are:

(1) 20p + 9t = 44.4

(2) (20 + 5)p + (9 + 1)t = 51

The values of p and t from the equation are 0.6 and 3.6, respectively. Thus, each paperback weighs 0.6 pounds and each textbook weighs 3.6 pounds.

erastova [34]

Answer:

106.63%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that at the end of 2005, this price was $513. At the end of 2015, it was $1060.

To find the percentage of the price per ounce of gold increase we will use % increase formula.

$\text{Percent Increase}=\frac{\text{Final value-Initial value}}{\text{Initial value}}\times 100$

Let us substitute our given values in above formula.

$\text{Percent Increase}=\frac{1060-513}{513}\times 100$

$\text{Percent Increase}=\frac{547}{513}\times 100$

$\text{Percent Increase}=1.0662768031189084\times 100$

$\text{Percent Increase}=106.62768031189084\approx 106.63$

Therefore, the price of per ounce of gold increased by 106.63%.
