<em>Answer:</em>
<em>38%</em>
<em>Step-by-step explanation:</em>
<em>60 percent girls</em>
<em>50 percent of girls walk</em>
<em>50 percent take the bus</em>
<em></em>
<em>40 percent boys</em>
<em>20 percent walk</em>
<em>80 percent take the bus</em>
<em></em>
<em>If there are 100 people in the school</em>
<em>60 girls</em>
<em>30 girls take the bus</em>
<em></em>
<em>40 boys</em>
<em>8 boys walk</em>
<em></em>
<em>8+30=38</em>
<em>38% of the people walk to school</em>
Answer:
<h3>(x - 0.15x) and x(1.00 - 0.15)</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the original price of a lawn mower,
If the hardware store is having a 15% off sale on lawn mowers this weekend, the amount discounted is expressed as;
= 15 % of x
= 0.15 of x
= 0.15x
Final sales price = Original price - discounted price;
Final sales price = x - 0.15x
Factor out x;
x - 0.15x = x(1 - 0.15)
Hence the correct equations are (x - 0.15x) and x(1.00 - 0.15)
If the number on the right of the number you're trying to round is greater than 5, round it up. If the number on the right of the number you're trying to round is less than 5, round down.
So you're trying to round to the nearest whole number, look on the number on the right, it's bigger than 5, it's a 7. Therefore, round the whole number up so it would be 7.
