Answer:
a) CP = SP/1.1
b) CP = $59.50
c) GST = $5.95
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Divide by the coefficient of CP.
SP = 1.1×CP
CP = SP/1.1
__
b) Use the formula with the given value.
CP = $65.45/1.1 = $59.50
__
c) You can do this two ways: subtract CP from SP, or multiply CP by 0.1.
GST = SP -CP = $65.45 -59.50 = $5.95
GST = CP×0.10 = $59.50 × 0.10 = $5.95
Maria = x
Tom = y
Use substitution
x+y=30
2y=x
2y+y=30
3y=30
y=10
Tom is 10 years old.
x+y=30
x+10=30
x=20
Maria is 20 years old.
To answer, change the 6 into a fraction
6 x 6/6 = 36/6
36/6 + 4/6 = 40/6
Simplify
40/6 = 6 4/6, or 6 2/3 (simplified)
hope this helps
Mean = Sum / number
Mean = (8 + 6 +4) / 3
= 18 / 3
= 6
Mean = 6
