This is a working backwards problem.  You know he has $35 at the end.  Before he gave his brother $5, he would have $40, which is half of what he had before he bought the clothes, so he would have had $80.  Before he spent the $40 on shoes, he would have had $120, so the answer is $120.

Bobby wants to go on a school trip that will cost him $250. He comes up with an equation that represents how much he needs to sa
monitta
Yes, Bobby will have enough money if he saves for 9 weeks. You can find this through either substituting w for 9 in the equation, or solving the equation itself. 

Substituting:

25(9)+30
Substitute w for 9. 

225+30
Simplify. 

225+30=255
Solve. 

255 is greater than 250, so yes, he will have enough money saved. 


Solving the equation:

25w+30=250
Original Equation

25w=220
Subtract 30 from both sides. 

w=8.8
Divide both sides by 25. 

The number of weeks he needs is 8.8. When rounding it up, you get 9.

The sales tax rate in New Mexico is $5.125%.
madreJ [45]

Answer:

<em>The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Percentages</u>

The procedure to add a percentage ratio p to a given quantity q is:

* Calculate the increase as i = p*q/100

* Add the increase to the original quantity to get the final quantity f=q + i

It's given the sales tax rate in New Mexico is p=5.125%. A pair of pants in New Mexico costs q=$30 before tax.

* The increase (tax) is i = (5.125*30)/100 = $1.54

* The price after tax is f = $30 + $1.54 = $31.54

The tax is $1.54 and the price after tax is $31.54
