We want to find 9.5% of $50.
First put 9.5% in decimal form. 9.5% = 0.095.
Then multiply 0.095 by 50. 50 * 0.095 = $4.75 fee
The money Kennedy will recieve is going to be 50 dollars minus the $4.75 fee.
50 - 4.75 = $45.25 with the fee subtracted
C.
y - 65 = -10(x - 6)
is what i say it is but im not for sure, so sry if im wrong.
so.. as you can see, we use the decimal notation for the percentages... 65% is just 65/100 and 50% is just 50/100 and so on
so.. whatever the salted amounts are, we know they'll add up to (x+175)(0.50)
thus (0.30x) + (175)(0.65) = (x+175)(0.50)
solve for "x"
2 and 3
negative numbers won't work, nor will 0
1 and 2 won't work because 1*8=2*4
2 and 3 is the answer
