Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

In 1908, a Model T cost $950. This means that the initial price was $950. The car's price dropped to $280 in the year 1927 due to it's increased efficiency.

The decrease in price is determined by subtracting the current price in 1927 from the initial price in 1908. It becomes

950 - 280 = $670

To determine the percentage decrease in price from 1908 to 1927, we will divide the decrease in price from 1908 to 1927 by the initial price in 1908 and multiply by 100. It becomes

670/950 × 100

= 70.53%

What is the estimate of 1/7 x 20 and 1/9 of 82?
devlian [24]
I believe the answer to 1/7 times 20 would be 2.9 that is rounded to the nearest tenth but if your rounding to the nearest whole number it would be 3
As for 1/9 of 82 it would be 9.1 rounded to the nearest tenth and it would be 9 rounded to the nearest whole number.
