Answer:

25%

6.5%

35%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the invoice :

Bill for a pair of Jean

Jeans ______39.99

Discount ___ - 10.00

Subtotal ____ 29.99

Sales tax ____ 1.95

Total _______ 31.94

A) % of discount to the nearest %

Discount amount = % discount * price

10 = x% * 39.99

10/39.99 = x%

0.2500625 = x%

x = 0.2500625 * 100%

% discount = 25%

% of sales tax:

Sales tax amount = % tax * Subtotal

1.95 = x% * 29.99

1.95/29.99 = x%

0.06502 = x%

x = 0.06502 * 100%

x = 6.5%

Markup before discount = 60%

Markup after discount = (60 - 25)% = 35%

The formula to convert temperature in Celsius to Fahrenheit is F= 9/5C+32. Solve for C<br> C= ?
icang [17]
F = 9/5C + 32

Subtract 32 to both sides:

F - 32 = 9/5C

Divide 9/5 to both sides or multiply by its reciprocal, 5/9:

5/9(F - 32) = C

Simplify:

C = 5/9F - 160/9

Rhonda has $13. She has one $5 bill, three $1 bills, and one other bill. Is a other bill a $1 bill or a $5 bill explain
morpeh [17]

Answer:

$5 bill

Step-by-step explanation:

If Rhonda has $13 and she has a $5 bill and 3 $1 bills, then she has

5 + 3(1) + x = 13

5 + 3 + x = 13

8 + x = 13

x = 5.

The last bill must be a $5 bill to equal the remaining $5.
