In the question, there are certain information's that are of immense importance in regards to finding the answer. The first information is that Jose Rivera had purchased 7 textbooks for his classes at River Run Community College. The price that Jose Rivera had to pay was $208.55. The average cost per textbook needs to be found.
The cost of 7 textbooks purchased by Jose Rivera = 208.55 dollars
Then
The cost of 1 textbook purchased by Jose Rivera = (208.55/7) dollars
= 29.79 dollars
The average cost of a textbook purchased by Jose Rivera rounded to the nearest cent is 29.80 dollars.
1. A. 550 meters.
this is because 2.5 km = 2500 meters, since there are 1000 meters in one kilometer.
therefore, 2500 - 1950 = 550 meters.
2. B. 126 inches.
this is because there are 12 inches in one foot, so we multiply 12 by 10 since there are 10 full feet. this leaves us with 120. then, we add half a foot, which is 6 inches. therefore, it is 126 :)
You would multiply the tanks by gallons
36x205
= 7,380
The error of percentage is the amount of error over the original amount.
In this case it is 22/95 (not 22 over 77 because 77 is not the original amount they expected to sell.
22/95 = .2315 or 23.2% to the nearest tenth of a percent
Perhaps your teacher just wants 23% as an the approximate error.
