Answer:

$20.95 (rounded)

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this, you need to first make an equation where x is the original cost before tax. So it would be 22=1.05x. You know it is 1.05 because 1 is the "whole" original cost and 0.05 is the 5% tax in decimal form. To solve the equation, you divide both sides by 1.05 to get x=20.95

There are 112 seats in the school auditorium. There are 7 seats in each row. There are 70 people seated, filling up rows of seat
aalyn [17]
Now, to find how many people are not there, all you have to do is subtract the amount of seats and the people there.
112- 70= 42
Now since there are 7 seats per row and 42 is divisible by 7, you can divide 42 by 7.
42÷7= 6
So, 6 rows were empty.
