For questions 4 and 5, use laws of complementary and supplementary angles to find values of x. I'm not too sure about what question 10 is asking.
Hope I helped :)
First way: x * 1.05
This computes directly what 105% of x will be.
Second way: x + (x * 0.05)
This takes x (which is 100%) and adds 5% of x to it.
I believe that would be 1
The best way to solve this problem is with a simple equation: part = percent (in decimal form) x whole
In this problem, we're trying to solve for the <em>whole </em>amount that the camera can hold, so we'll assign that the variable w.
We can use the information they gave us - 96 is the <em>part</em>, and 24% is the percent. We'll convert that to decimal form - 0.24
Then, we just plug these values back into the above equation:
96 = 0.24w
Divide both sides by 0.24 to get w on it's own, and you have your answer!
400 = w
Therefore, the memory card can hold up to 400 pictures.
Note: this equation is <em>super </em>helpful. It's good to have on hand for any problem involving percents, because you can solve for the part, percent, or whole depending on the problem.
