Part A.
*To find the sales tax (6%) amount: $18.50 x .06 = $1.11 is the sales tax on a dozen carnations
Part B.
*To find the total cost of a dozen carnations plus the sales tax: $18.50 + $1.11 = $19.61 this is the total cost
Answer: P = $ 1,998.01
Step-by-step explanation:
First, converting R percent to r a decimal
r = R/100 = 24%/100 = 0.24 per year,
putting time into years for simplicity,
1 months ÷ 12 months/year = 0.083333 years,
then, solving our equation
P = 39.96 / ( 0.24 × 0.083333 ) = 1998.007992032
P = $ 1,998.01
The principal required to
accumulate interest of $ 39.96
on a rate of 24% per year for 0.083333 years (1 months) is $ 1,998.01.
No unit fractions are shown. (Sometimes editing is required when you copy and paste your question text.)
Selections B and D have 1 as their first digit. We suspect those are supposed to be the unit fractions 1/8 and 1/3, respectively.
Answer:
x = 3 / 16
Step-by-step explanation:
Simplify first:
x - 1 / 16 = 1 / 8
x = 3 / 16
6 times 12 is 72 so 14 times 12 would be 168 if that is what you are looking for. So for that y=168 :-)
