Answer:
a - 6%
b - $7.50
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer for a
the only items that had sales tax were $3.00 and $0.50. The total tax for the both was $0.21 so you can find what percent 0.21 is of 3.00 + 0.50 o 3.50. Do this by dividing the percent you are looking for, 0.21, by what it is the percent of 3.50. 0.21 / 3.50 = 0.06. then you multiply the number you got, in this case 0.06 by 100 to find the percentage so it is 6%
The answer for b
Here you can just take the subtotal, $13.00, and subtract all the other prices and you will be left with the price of the top. 13.00 - 3.00 - 2.00 - 0.50 = 7.50. So the answer is $7.50
Given the equation, S = D/T:
To make the D the subject of the equation, we can start by multiplying both sides by T to isolate D:
(T) S = D/T (T)
TS = D
Therefore, the final answer is D = TS
4650
^ This is the hundreds place
Look at the number after it, if it's 5 or more we round up, if it's 4 or less we round down.
The number is 5, so we round up to 4700.
