Okay to find percentages of things you have to take that original value (1500) and multuply it by the percentage. But when you multiply you put the percentage into a decimal and move it over to the right side two decimal places to the left. For example 10.0% would mean you need to multiply by 0.10 okay?
So for this problem you need to do 1500 *.013 and you get 19.5 computers.
Answer:
A. 3 1/4
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert the mixed numbers to improper fractions, then find the LCD and combine.
Let the number of years after 2001 be x, then
1280000 + 19500x = 1700000
19500x = 1700000 - 1280000 = 420,000
x = 420000/19500 = 22 years.
x = 22 years.
It's easier to work with problems such as –2.1x + 3.7 -5 + 4.9x when we rearrange the like terms vertically:
–2.1x + 3.7 -5 + 4.9x
becomes
–2.1x + 3.7
+4.9x -5

2.8x - 1.3 (answer)
