For every 6000 square feet in a building, there is one fire extinguisher.

So for 135000 square feet, the equation is like direct proportion (because the more the square feet, the more fire extinguishers needed).

1 : 6000

x : 135000

Multiply x with 6000, and 1 with 135000.

So, the result is:

6000x = 135000

x = 135000/6000

x = 22.5

Now sum of infinite series is  

a

1

−

r

and if first three term are removed, fourth term becomes the first term i.e. first term becomes  

a

r

3

and

sum of infinite series becomes  

a

r

3

1

−

r

As  

a

−

r

=

27

×

a

r

r

27

r

Eddie has saved up $45 to purchase a new camera from the local store. the sales tax in his county is 7% of the sticker price. wr
nikklg [1K]
X + 0.07x = 45; x = $42.06

if x is the basic price we must add 7% to this.  As a fraction 7% is 7/100.  As a decimal number this is 0.07, so the total to be paid is x + 0.07x (which can also be written as 1.07x).  This must equal $45, so 1.07x = 45; divide both sides by 1.07 to get:

$42.06 to the nearest penny.

Hope this helps!
