remember that percent is parts out of 100 so x%=x/100
basically just remove the percent sign and move the decimal place 2 places to the left to convert to fraction
the first one
20 dollars
4.75% tax
15% tip
it depends if you want to tip on the total with tax or without tax
it is better to top on the without-tax value since tax comes from you so
find 4.75% of 20 and add that to 15% of 20 then add that to 20 to get the proper value
scenarios
1. 20+(20 times 4.75%)+(20 times 15%)=23.95
2. ([(20 times 104.75%)] times 115%)=24.09
both are bellow $25 so $25 shoudl be enough to cover it
total cost of a spa treatment of 42 with 6% tax and 20% tip
so you could again do two things:
1. apply tax and give tip on the new amount
2. find the tip and add that to the tax of only 42
scenarios:
1.(42 times 106%) times 120%=$50.4
2. (42 times 20%) +(42 times 106%)=$52.92
it depens on what you tip on
Answer:
z = 189/44
Step-by-step explanation:
The "varies jointly" relationship can be expressed by ...
y = kxz
We can find k from the given values.
40 = k(10)(9)
40/90 = k = 4/9 . . . divide by the coefficient of k
Now we want to find z for given values of x and y. That can be found from ...
y = (4/9)xz
9y/(4x) = z . . . . . multiply by 9/(4x)
Filling in the new numbers, we have ...
z = 9·105/(4·55)
z = 4 13/44 = 189/44 ≈ 4.2954...(repeating 54)
140/1
because anything divided by 1 is itself, and a fraction is just the numberator divided by the denominator.
