Answer:
$0.60
Step-by-step explanation:
The costs are:
$0.15 + $0.25 = $0.40
He sells it for $1.25.
The value added is:
$1.25 - $0.40 = $0.85
We need to identify what "the nearest cent" is.
So!
AB.CD
That is a representation of a number using variables, but we'll just say it's for place values.
A is in the Tens Place
B is in the Ones Place
C is in the Tenths Place (1/10)
D is in the Hundredths Place (1/100
Since we are talking about money let's put it in relation to a dollar.
A is in the Ten Dollar Place
B is in the One Dollar Place
C is in the Tenth of a Dollar Place (1/10 of a dollar)
D is in the Hundredth of a Dollar Place (1/100 of a dollar)
So, what is 1/10 of a dollar?
What amount of money times 10, would get you 1 dollar. Or you can think of it as if you had 10 of one value of money and you got a dollar what is that? A dime.
Now, what is 1/100 of a dollar?
What amount of money times 100, would get you 1 dollar. 1 cent (Or it is sometimes called a penny).
So that means any number beyond the 1/100 of a dollar point (D) will be rounded. If it's the first number after the 1/100 of a dollar is greater than (or equal to) 5 then we round the cent value up. If it is less than 5 we round down.
$29.4983
So, 9 is our cent place. 8 is greater than 5, so we round 9 up. (Add 1. Since it is 9 it will carry over into the 1/10 of a dollar place)
Our answer is:
$29.50
1. In a class of x children, 16 boys. What fraction of the class are boys.
2. Inside a stable there are h horses. 6 of them are taken out of the yard to exercise. How many are left in the stable.
3. There are b people on a bus. At the next stop, 7 get off and 10 more get on. How many people are on the bus now?
Answer:
(a) draw the graph using these coordinates :
(0,-1) and (3,1)
(b) x = 3
B is the correct answer.
We are adding the border of x thickness to all 4 sides of the table. This makes the new width of the table 36+x+x = 36+2x and the new length of the table 72+x+x=72+2x. To find the area, we multiply the length and width:
(36+2x)(72+2x) = 3006
Multiplying the binomials, we get:
36*72 + 36*2x + 2x*72 + 2x*2x = 3006
2592 + 72x + 144x + 4x² = 3006
Combining like terms gets us
2592 + 216x + 4x² = 3006
Subtract 3006 from both sides:
2592 + 216x + 4x² - 3006 = 3006 - 3006
-414 + 216x + 4x² = 0
Writing in standard form we have
4x²+216x-414=0
