(xy=x times y just fyi)
bought bike for 368.9
this was including sales tax of 8.5%
(percent means part out of 100 so 8.5%=8.5/100=0.85/10= 0.085/1 1=0.085)
so paid=price+tax
paid=368.9
price=p
tax=p times 8.5%=0.085
368.9=p+p times 0.085
368.9=p+0.085p
or
p+0.085p=368.9
the answer is C
The answer is 6.5 because of the angle that is used
They are not equivalent because when you are doing ratios they are not interchangeable
Answer:
1. a/b = 2
2. a/b = 1/3
Step-by-step explanation:
3a=6b
We want to find a/b
Divide each side by b
3a/b=6b/b
3a/b = 6
Divide each side by 3
3a/3b =6/3
a/b = 2
15a=5b
We want to find a/b
Divide each side by b
15a/b = 5b/b
15a/b = 5
Divide each side by 15
15 a/15b = 5/15
a/b = 1/3
