A because x is the original price, so you multiply by the tax (9%) which would convert to 1.09 which you would multiply to the x
Your answer would be 12/25 tons. If you set up a proportion 2/5 X
-------- = -------
5/6 1
Solve your proportion.
Answer:
m = 7
Step-by-step explanation:
2m + -4 = 10
Reorder the terms:
-4 + 2m = 10
Solving
-4 + 2m = 10
Solving for variable 'm'.
Move all terms containing m to the left, all other terms to the right.
Add '4' to each side of the equation.
-4 + 4 + 2m = 10 + 4
Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0
0 + 2m = 10 + 4
2m = 10 + 4
Combine like terms: 10 + 4 = 14
2m = 14
Divide each side by '2'.
m = 7
Simplifying
m = 7
The answer is B 803.8cm^2
3 divided by 8 = 0.375
0.375 x 100 = 37.5%
37.5% is closest to 38%
