nordsb [41]4 years ago

First, you convert 5% to decimal. For your info, percents are always equal to 100. So, you divide 5 by a 100, which gives you 0.05. Then, you multiply 2.95 by 0.05. 2.95 x 0.05 is 0.1475 which is about 0.15. Then, you add 0.15 to 2.95. The total cost of a $2.95 notebook plus 5% is about $3.10.

Santino bought a book for $23.54. The price of the book was $22. What was the sales-tax rate?
Vika [28.1K]

We first find value of tax in dollars.

The difference between the two prices  is: 23. 54 - 22 = 1.54

Therefore the sales tax in dollars is 1.54

The tax % will be  (amount of tax / original cost price ) × 100

(1.54 / 22) × 100 → (0.07) × 100 =  7

So the tax rate is 7%

We can double check the answer.

7 % of 22  → (7/100) × 22 → 0.07 × 22 = 1.54

22 + 1.54 = 23.54

Ms. Cruz has a tank with 11 fish. After buying two more, she has 2 less than triple the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has. How m
exis [7]

Answer:

a) Write a let statement below to define your variable(s):

Let the number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has be represented by = f

b) Set up an equation using the variable you defined in (a):

The equation is :

3f - 2 = 13

c) Solve your equation & Check. How many fish does Ms. Montesinos have?

Ms. Montesinos has 5 fishes

Step-by-step explanation:

Ms. Cruz has a tank with 11 fish. After buying two more, she has 2 less than triple the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has. How many fish does Ms. Montesinos have in her tank?

a) Write a let statement below to define your variable(s):

Let the number of fishes Ms. Montesinos has be represented by = f

b) Set up an equation using the variable you defined in (a):

We are told in the question:

Ms. Cruz has a tank with 11 fish. After buying two more, she has 2 less than triple the amount of fish Ms. Montesinos has.

Therefore,

3× f - 2 = 11 + 2

The equation is :

3f - 2 = 13

c) Solve your equation & Check. How many fish does Ms. Montesinos have?

Solving the above equation:

3f - 2 = 13

3f = 13 + 2

3f = 15

Divide both sides by 3

3f/3 = 15/3

f = 5

Hence, Ms. Montesinos has 5 fishes

Harry has a penny collection with 160 pennies. He plans to increase the size of his collection by a constant term each year for
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

  • A: Harry plans to have approximately 350 pennies at the end of the second year

  • B: Harry plans to have approximately 1,200 pennies at the end of his five-year plan.

  • C: Harry plans to increase his collection by approximately 1,050 pennies over the five-year period.

  • D: Harry will add approximately 250 pennies to his collenction d during the fourth year, according to his plan.

  • E: The coordinates of the point are (3.5, 400)

  • F: Harry will need to add approximately 150 more pennies more than what he had planned by the end of the fourth year, to get back on the plan.

Explanation:

The first thing I did was to write the numbers to the grid and add the points labeled with the letter of the question with which they are related.

  • Every mark on the x-axis corresponds to 1 year.

  • Every mark of the y-axis corresponds to 200 pennies.

See the graph attached.

Question A:

The y-coordinate of the green point labeled A is about half way between 300 and 400, i.e. 350.

Then, Harry plans to have approximately 350 pennies at the end of the second year

Question B:

The green point labeled B has coordinates (5, 1200), meaning that Harry plans to have approximately 1,200 pennies at the end of his five-year plan.

Question C:

Harry started his collection with approximately 150 coins. It is the y-coordinate (the value when x = 0): (200 - 100)/2 = 150.

Thus, Harry plans to increase his collection by approximately 1,200 - 150 = 1,050 pennies over the five-year period.

Question D:

The number of peenies that Harry will add to his collection during the fourth year, according to his plan, is the difference between the number of pennies at the end of the fourth year and the end of the third year.

The green point labeled D has coordinates (4, 800) meaning that his plan is to have approximately 800 pennies.

To find the number of pennies that Harry plans to have at the end of the third year  read the y-coordinate that meets the curve when x = 3. That is approximately (600 + 500) / 2 = 550.

The difference is 800 - 550 = 250 pennies.

Therefore, Harry will add approximately 250 pennies to his collenction d during the fourth year, according to his plan.

Question E:

The blue point labeled E shows the position on the grid of the 400 pennies halfway throuhg the fourth year.

The coordinates of this point is (3.5, 400).

Question F:

According to the plan, the number of pennies at the end of the fourth year would be 800 (green point labeled D on the graph).

Then, Harry will need to add approximately 800 - 400 = 400 pennies.

According to the plan the number of coins at the end of the third year would be

But the plan was to add 800 - 550 = 250.

Thus, Harry will need to add 400 - 250 = 150 more pennies than he had planned, during the fourth year.
