6% tax means 6% of $3.50
Convert 6% to decimal (move decimal 2 spots to the left): 6% ⇒ .06
Multiply 3.50 with .06 = .21 <-- That's .21 cents of 3.50
That means you have to pay an extra 21 cents. Add that to the $3.50 you had to pay.
$3.50 + $0.21 = $3.71 <-- Price after tax
Given:
Multiply both sides by 3/2, we get
Cancel out the common multiples, we get
The solution of the given equation is
or
The intent of the construction appears to be to produce tangents from point P to the circle O. There are several possible next steps:
• Name the point of intersection just created between the arc and circle O
• Draw a line (or segment) between points P and J
• Draw a line (or segment) between point P and the intersecting point just created on circle O.
45% of 40 is 0.45×40=18 girls
if x girls join then 56% of 40+x is 0.56(40+x)=18+x
22.4+0.56x=18+x
put together like terms
4.4=0.44x
