ANSWER: $44.10
EXPLANATION: The actual cost for an ice hockey match is $19.60. Now, if the price of the ticket increases by 12.5%, the cost of each ticket will increase by $2.45.
$19.6 x 12.5% = $2.45
So, the final price of a single ticket will be $22.05
$19.6 + $2.45 = $22.05
Hence, the cost of two tickets after the increase will be $44.10
$22.05 x 2 = $44.10
Given:
The formula for total cost is
where, p is the price of item and s is the sales tax rate (as a percent).
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14.
To find:
The the tax rate.
Solution:
You pay $14.77 for an item priced at $14. So,
Total cost (T) = $14.77
Price of item (p) = $14
Putting T=14.77 and p=14 in given formula, we get
Multiply both sides by 100.
Divide both sides by 14.
Therefore, the tax rate is 5.5%.
Answer:
4 hours
Step-by-step explanation:
In 6 hours, J paints 1 room
So, in 1 hour, J paints 1/6 th of the room
Using similar logic, in 1 hour, T paints 1/12 th of the room.
Working together in one hour, they paint (1/6+1/12) th =1/4 of the room.
1/4 of the room is painted in 1 hour
So, 1 room is painted in 1 1/4=4 hours
