The thousands place (1000) is the fourth number to the left of the decimal, so round that one either up or down based on the number just one spot closer to the decimal, in this case, the hundreds place (100).
so we have 32,420
we can ignore the numbers that are going to become zeros as a result of the rounding . .
32,400
let's round 32,XXX either up or down based on the value in the hundreds place. if that value is 5 or greater, than we round up. if it is less than 5, than we round down.
4 is in the hundreds place, so we round down
32,000 is the answer
B. is the answer hope I got it right: )
40 % off means we pay 60 % (must total 100%)
original price * 60 % = 36.00
change percent to decimal
original price * .6 = 36
divide each side by .6
orginal price = 60
Answer:
if you are being asked what the values of the x and y variables are, x=5/2 and y=4
Step-by-step explanation:
In order to solve this problem you will want to isolate one of the two variables in both equations.
I isolated the y variable in both equations so you have:
4x+y=14, when you isolate the y variable, you will get: y=-4x+14
6x-3y=3, same procedure isolate y: 6x-3=3y, now simplify so you only have y: 2x-1=y.
Now that you have the two equations which a common variable, solve them by making the two equations equal to each other like so:
-4x+14=2x-1, now you want to have all the x variable terms on one side and all the constants on the other, you will add "4x" to each side of the equal sign and then add "1" to each side to leave you with: 15=6x
now divide both sides by 6 to obtain your x value: x=15/6 simplifies to 5/2
then plug your x-value into one of the two equations we made earlier:
y=2x-1
y=2(5/2)-1
y=5-1
y=4
now you have calculated the values of your x and y values
