Answer:
The main answer: $4.84
Step-by-step explanation:
County A: Multiply the price by the sales tax to find out how much money the sales tax will add. Remember to convert percent to decimal!
$75 * 0.0725 = $5.4375
Add the original price and the sales tax.
$75 + $5.4375 = $80.4375
County B: Multiply the price by the sales tax to find out how much money the sales tax will add. Remember to convert percent to decimal!
$70 * 0.08 = $5.6
Add the original price and the sales tax.
$70 + $5.6 = $75.6
Then take the difference.
80.4375 – 75.6 = 4.8375
Round to the nearest hundredth: $4.84
7. 18.3 divided by 4 is 4.575. 4.575 is closest to 4.5 which would be our answer
8. 14.6 divided by 3 is 4.86. If we round it, then it would be 5 which would be the answer
10. The answer to the problem would be 11.58
Percent increase=increase/original times 100
increase=26-21=5
original=21
so
5/21 times 100=0.23809523809523809523809523809524 times 100=23.809523809523809523809523809524
round
24%
so 24% increase
the line that is parallel will be y = 1/2x
