Answer:
$7.20
Step-by-step explanation:
20% is the same as 0.2 or 2/10, which simplifies to 1/5.
1/5*36=36/5=7.20
Or you could straight up to 20%*36=7.20
If the tax was 10%, then you’d end up paying the original 100% plus the additional 10% tax, so you’d pay 110% of the original price.
In your example, it’s the same, except you have 8.25% tax, so you’d pay 100%+8,25% or 108.25% of the original price.
That’s stated as a percent.
To convert a percent to a decimal, you divide by 100:
108.25 ÷ 100 = 1.0825
To convert a decimal to a fraction, you have to know the place value of the smallest place. In this case, the 5 is in the ten thousandths place.
10825/10000
You can always double check that fraction on a calculator.
They meet their median goal because if you rearrange the numbers from lowest to highest, the median mileage of their line of cars would be 19,23,25,26,29. There are five numbers of car mileages therefore 25 would serve as the median for all five mileages.
Answer:
16 years
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the number of years. The suburb population is growing at a rate of 5000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:
320000 + 5000x
The city population is declining at a rate of 14000 per year after x years, it can be represented by the equation:
624000 - 14000x
The number of years for the city and suburb population to be equal can be gotten from:
320000 + 5000x = 624000 - 14000x
14000x + 5000x = 624000 - 320000
19000x = 304000
x = 304000 / 19000
x = 16
In 16 years the populations of the suburb and the city be equal
