Well 1/3 for savings means that you save 1/3*4500 or 1500 dollars.
You then have $3000 left. Of this if you spend 50% on food, you spend 0.5*3000 or 1500 dollars on food.
12,000 Students Applied...
To find the answer, consider that for every 1000 students that apply, 150 students are accepted.
Divide 1800 by 150 and you get 12....which can be translated to 12,000 students
A toy cost 0.85p in January.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given,
Mark down in January = 15%
Let,
Price in December = p
Mark down in January = 15% of price in December
Mark down in January = 
Mark down in January = 0.15p
Price of toy in January = Price in December - Mark down
Price of toy in January = p - 0.15p = 0.85p

Answer:
-5n + 8
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>1. What is the difference?</u>
The sequence goes down by 5. This means that the formula will have -5n in it.
<u>2. Work out the term before the first term.</u>
The first term is 3, and we know that the sequence goes up by 5. So, to get the term before 3 we would add 5.
3 + 5 = 8 Remember, this is positive 8. (+8)
<u>3. Put that term at the end of the equation. </u>
We have -5n already and we just worked out the term before the first one which is positive 8 - so put that at the end of the equation.
-5n + 8 This is our answer!
Just to prove it works:
<em>Substitute: n = term</em>
Lets see if we can get the 3rd term which is -7. (n = 3)
-5(3) + 8
-15 + 8 = -7
See, it works!
