Answer:
Rita paid 47,500 dollars for the purchase price.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the sales tax on a new car is directly proportional to the purchase price of the car which means there is is something k such that
when you multiply it to the sales tax you get the purchase price.
Let's set this equation:
y=kx
Let y represent the purchase price and x the sales tax.
The second sentence tells us that (x,y)=(1500,30000).
We can plug this into y=kx to find the constant k. (Constant means it stays the same no matter what the input and output is).
So we have:
30000=k(1500)
300 =k(15) I went ahead and divided previous equation by 100.
Now divide both sides by 15:
300/15=k
Simplify:
20=k
So the equation to use the answer the question is
y=20x
where y is purchase price and x is sales tax.
So we want to know the purchase price on a car if the sales tax is 2375.
So replace x with 2375:
y=20(2375)
y=47500
63/80 x 100 = 78.8%
You divide normally but multiply by 100 (moving the decimal over two places).
Answer:
32 remainder 2
Step-by-step explanation:
To divide 162 by 5, we simply do the following:
5 goes into 16 => 3
Multiply 5 by 3 => 3 × 5 = 15
Subtract 15 from 16 => 16 – 15 = 1
Put the 1 before 2 => 12
5 goes into 12 => 2
Multiply 5 by 2 => 5 × 2 = 10
Subtract 10 from 12 => 12 – 10 => 2
In summary,
162 divided by 5 => 32 remainder 2
