Answer:=−91u
Step-by-step explanation:
If k is a constant of proportionality then we know from last week that
512= k ·32 so k=512/32=16;
This week
448= k · amount he saved
448=16· amount he saved
amount saved=448/16=28
Answer $28
X= sales tax %
Step 1:
$240 * sales tax %= $12
240 * x= 12
240x=12
Divide both sides by 240
x= 0.05 (decimal of the %)
Convert to %:
Multiply decimal by 100 (or move decimal to the right two decimal places
=0.05 x 100
=5 %
The sales tax is 5%.
Hope this helps! :)
