Answer:

The annual rate of inflation r is $0.013

Step-by-step explanation:

Annual rate of inflation r = (p2p1)1/n-1 = p2p1/n-1

p2 = $5.83, p1 = $0.22, n = 2013 - 1913 = 100

r = $5.83 × $0.22/100 - 1 = $1.2826/99 = $0.013 (to the nearest thousandth)

amid [387]
The new tea is 75% Earl Grey and 25% Orange Pekoe.
$4 / pound times 75% = $3
$2 / pound times 25% = $0.5
$3 + $0.5 = $3.50 / pound

600 pounds times 75% = 450 pounds of Earl Grey
600 pounds times 25% = 150 pounds of Orange Pekoe

Can anyone please work out question 10 in the picture and clearly explain it? Would appreciate it

9945/ 39= 255
If you were to try to divide 99 by thirty five it would not be a whole. You would be able to multiply 39 by 2 to get 78. 99 subtracted by 78 = 21 you would then carry down the 4. to equal 214 you would then figure out 39 multiplied by 5 is the highest number to figure a 195 you would have 19 left over. Carry down your 5 and would have 195. You would have 195 again and then multiply 39 by 5 and it would equal out to 195. Your answer would then be 255.
