Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
0.28 is roughly the same as 0.280, which has 3 significant digits (same as 0.205 has 3 significant digits). It's easier when we compare numbers having the same number of decimal places.
Comparing 0.280 to 0.205, we see that the hundredths place of 0.280 (which is 8) is greater than the hundredths place of 0.205 (which is 0). Thus 0.28 is greateer than 0.205.
Answer:
If there are N students, the total cost will be:
C(N) = $500 + $5*N.
And we want the amount that each student pays to be equal or less than $15.
then:
C(N)/N ≤ $15.
Then the inequality that represents this situation is:
($500 + $5*N)/N ≤ $15.
Now, let's solve this:
($500 + $5*N) ≤ $15*N
$500 ≤ $15*N - $5*N
$500 ≤ $10*N
$500/$10 ≤ N
50 ≤ N
So the minimum number of students needed is 50.

Answer: $250
Step-by-step explanation: To calculate the past year`s tax, divide this year tax to 1.15.
