Answer:

$260

Step-by-step explanation:

Actual price + 8% of actual price=$280.80

Let x= actual price

8% of actual price=8/100 of x

=0.08x

x + 0.08x=$280.80

1.08x=$280.80

x=$280.80/1.08

x=$260

Price of the jacket before sales tax=$260

Check:

8% sales tax of $260

=8% of $260

=8/100×$260

=0.08×$260

=$20.8

Purchasing price= actual price+ sales tax

=$260+$20.8

=$280.80

baherus [9]

Answer:

355.2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Four percent of Jennie's skin cells were burned

Total skin cells having Jennie = 3.7 x 10^10

                                                  = 3.7\times10\times10 = 370

To find:

How man skin cells were not burned ?

Solution:

Total skin cells having Jennie = 370

Percent of Jennie's skin cells were burned = 4%

Skin cells burned  from a fire = 370 \ of 4\%

                                                = 370\times\frac{4}{100} =\frac{1480}{100}

                                                = 14.8

Remaining skin cells which not burned = 370 - 14.8 = 355.2

Therefore,  355.2 skin cells were not burned.
