A 5% raise means that you have to find out what 5% of 8 is and then add that to 8:
5/100 * 8 = 40/100 = $0.40
8 + 0.40 = $8.40.
ANSWER QUESTIONS
Step-by-step explanation:
You already got the first two questions right: the group with the highest number of people unemployed / unemployment rate is the one with the highest bar in the respective histogram.
The two graph are related in this sense: take the first age group as reference. We know that 700 people from 16 to 19 are unemployed, and that those people represent 14% of the population, then we know that the 14% of the population between 16 and 19 is 700.
We can deduce that, if x is the number of people between 16 and 19, we have

So, by the relation between the two graphs, we can deduce the total population for each age group.
The equation would look something like this: 50+60x (x being the number of hours the plumber worked)
Since the price increases by $60 every hour, the constant rate would be $60. The total cost of the bill would be 50+60*6
( $410 )
Given:
Cost of lunch per day = 1 meal and 2 snacks
C = 5.5 + 2(0.75) = 5.5 + 1.5 = 7
7 * 12 days = 84
Based on the choices, the best strategy would be:
<span> A. Make a table. Write the numbers 1 to 12 in the top row of the table (the number of days). In the first box on the second row, write $7. This is how much Rebecca spends in 1 day. In each of the next boxes in the second row, write the amount Rebecca spends by adding $7 to the previous amount. The answer in box 12 is the total amount Rebecca spent after 12 days.</span>
