Answer:

Colleen pays 8 cents more in taxes than Brad

Step-by-step explanation:

We should find the money each of them pay in taxes.

Colleen

Buys a movie for $20 and pays 7% sales tax.

That is, she has to pay in taxes 7% of $20.

So she pays 0.07*20 = $1.40 in taxes

Brad

Brad buys the same movie for $22 and pays 6% sales tax.

That is, he has to pay in taxes 6% of $22.

So he pays 0.06*22 = $1.32 in taxes

Collen pays more. She pays $1.40-$1.32 = $0.08 = 8 cents more.

A newspaper advertisement offers a $6500 used car for nothing down and 36 easy monthly payments of
NNADVOKAT [17]

Using simple interest, it is found that:

  • The total amount paid was of $7,084.8.
  • The finance charge was of $584.8.
  • The simple interest rate was of 3%.

<h3>Simple Interest</h3>

Simple interest is used when there is a single compounding per time period.

The amount of interest after t years in is modeled by:

I = Prt

In which:

  • P is the initial amount.
  • r is the interest rate, as a decimal.

In this problem, the amount paid was of 36 monthly payments of

$196.80, hence:

36 x 196.80 = $7084.8.

The total amount paid was of $7,084.8.

The original price is of $6,500, hence the finance charge was of:

7084.8 - 6500 = $584.8.

For interest, we have that:

I = 584.8, P = 6500, t = 3, hence:

I = Prt

584.8 = 6500(3)r

r = \frac{584.8}{6500 \times 3}

r = 0.03

The simple interest rate was of 3%.

The area of Terry's room at the old house was 96 ft.2. The area of Terry's room at the new house is 108 ft.2
Finger [1]

Answer:

12.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to calculate the change in the area of Terry's room this is

108 ft2 - 96 ft2 = 12 ft2

Then we use a direct proportion in order to find the percentage

96 ft2 ----- 100%

12 ft2 ----- p?

Solvin for p we have that

p=\frac{12\times 100}{96}

p=12.5
