First, you convert 5% to decimal. For your info, percents are always equal to 100. So, you divide 5 by a 100, which gives you 0.05. Then, you multiply 2.95 by 0.05. 2.95 x 0.05 is 0.1475 which is about 0.15. Then, you add 0.15 to 2.95. The total cost of a $2.95 notebook plus 5% is about $3.10.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
a1 = 6
a2 = 10
a3 = 14
The next member of the sequence is 4 more than the current sequence. Therefore d = 4
a1 = 6
d = 4
n = 13
an = a1 + (n - 1)*d
an = 6 + (n - 1)*4
a_13 = 6 + 12*4
a_13 = 6 + 48
a_13 = 54
Answer:
1,231 people
Step-by-step explanation:
1,256 people currently subscribe. $0.25 is 5 nickels, and for every nickel the price is raised, 5 people unsubscribe. That's 1 person per cent. 25 people will unsubscribe for every $0.25 the price is raised. 1,256-25 is 1,231, so 1,231 people will continue to subscribe after the price increase.
