Answer:

$11500

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Tax amount=$1437.50

Tax percentaege=12.5%

So, we have to find the price of motorcycle whose 12.5% is 1437.50

Mathematically writing,

Let  

x be the price of motorcycle without tax

then, the equation will be written as:

x*0.125=1437.50

x=  1437.50/0.125

x=11500

So the price of motorcycle without tax was $11500..

You are the administrator of an annual essay contest scholarship fund. This year a $84,000 college scholarship is being divided
shutvik [7]

The winner got $70,000 and the runner up got $14,000

Let the winner be represented by x and runner up by y

Data given;

  • Amount to be shared = $84000
  • x = 5y

This is a simple case of ratio i.e 1 : 5

<h3>Equation</h3>

x = 5y\\84000 = 5y + y\\84000 = 6y\\y = 14000\\

The runner up received $14000. let's use this data to find how much the winner got.

x = 5y \\x = 5 * 14000\\x = 70000

From the calculations above, the winner got $70,000 and the runner up got $14,000.
