Let's say the price without tax of the car is "x", then you add 5% of "x" and it becomes $26,708.

now, if we take "x" to be the 100% of the price, and then adding a 5% of "x" will simply give us a 100 + 5 = 105%, and that's what 26,708 is, thus, 26,708 is the 105%, and if "x" is the 100%, what is "x" anyway?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
x&100\\
26708&105
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{x}{26708}=\cfrac{100}{105}\implies x=\cfrac{26708\cdot 100}{105}

Miles is saving to buy a new car. He currently has $600 in his savings account. He plans on depositing $200 a month until he has
Marizza181 [45]

Answer:

7 months

Step-by-step explanation:

He plans on depositing $200 every month into the savings account that already has $600 in it.

We can represent the amount of money he will have after a certain number of months (x) as:

A = 600 + 200x

He needs to save $2000. Therefore, to find the months he needs to save, we need to find x when A is $2000:

2000 = 600 + 200x

200x = 2000 - 600

200x = 1400

x = 1400/200 = 7 months

He needs to save for 7 months.
