R=percentage of discount
$12.95= (1-\frac{r}{100} )p$
so we get
$\frac{12.95}{(1-\frac{r}{100} )}=p$

20% of city employees ride the bus to work. This is up 10% from last year. What percent of employees rode the bus to work last y

Pepsi [2]

Answer:

18.18% of employees rode the bus to work last year

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

Last year, a proportion of x employees riding the bus was 100% = 1.

This year, 20% = 0.2 ride the bus, which is 100 + 10 = 110% = 1.1 of last year.

So

0.2 - 1.1

x - 1

$1.1x = 0.2$

$x = \frac{0.2}{1.1}$

$x = 0.1818$

0.1818*100 = 18.18%

18.18% of employees rode the bus to work last year

Which of the following expressions are equivalent to -19/8 x(-50)

dmitriy555 [2]

1. Move the negative sign to the left.

- $\frac{19}{8}$ $X$ *-50

2. Use this rule: $\frac{a}{b}$ $*$ $\frac{c}{d}$ = $\frac{ac}{bd}$

- $\frac{19x*-50}{8}$

3. Simplify - $\frac{-950x}{8}$

4. Move the negative sign to the left.

-(-950x/8)

5. Simplify 950x/8 to 475x/4

6. Remove parentheses.
