Reasonable because the three items altogether cost about $40
Answer:
2.80
Step-by-step explanation:
The discount is the regular price times the discount
discount = 19 *15%
discount = 2.85
The new price is the regular price minus the discount
new price = 19-2.85
=16.15
Now she has to pay the sales tax
tax = new price * tax rate
tax= 16.15 * 6.5%
= 16.15 *.065
=1.05
We add the tax to the new price to get the final price
final price = new price+tax
= 16.15 +1.05
=17.20
She pays with a 20 dollar bill
Change = payment - final price
=20.00 - 17.20
= 2.80
Total number of seniors = 55 + 70 = 125
Number of seniors who plan to go to college = 55
Percentage of seniors who plan to go to college = 55/125 x 100 = 44%
Answer: 44%
1 1/3 divided by 3/5= 2 2/9. Hope this helps :)
Step-by-step explanation:
your don't see what went wrong ?
Tyrell worked on
16 - 2(4 + 3x)
what do brackets mean ? they mean that this operation has to be done before everything else in the expression.
as this contains a variable, we cannot fully calculate it, true, but we need to keep this in mind and always treat the content of the brackets as one package.
so, whatever I do from the outside with one part of that package, I have to do also with all the other parts of that package.
so, the multiplication with -2 has to happen with both : 4 and 3x. not just with 4.
therefore, the correct simplification looks like
16 - 8 - 6x
8 - 6x or -6x + 8
Amelia multiplied correctly, but then made a mistake summing things up
10x - 3(4x + 1)
10x - 12x - 3
10x - 12x = -2x
I can't mix the pure constant -3 into the factors of x. that would be like the famous mixing of apples and oranges.
so, the result is
-2x - 3
