First, you convert 5% to decimal. For your info, percents are always equal to 100. So, you divide 5 by a 100, which gives you 0.05. Then, you multiply 2.95 by 0.05. 2.95 x 0.05 is 0.1475 which is about 0.15. Then, you add 0.15 to 2.95. The total cost of a $2.95 notebook plus 5% is about $3.10.
Let
y-------> number of books read during the month 
x------> number of picture of a book
we know that

in this problem
for 
calculate y

therefore
the answer is
The number of books read during the month
is 
Answer:
x = 5
Step-by-step explanation:
Since both triangles are similar hence;
m<CAB = m<CDE
Given theta
m<CAB = 50degrees
m<CDE = 10x
Substitute the given angles
50 = 10x
Swap
10x = 50
Divide both sides by 10
10x/10 = 50/10
x = 5
Hence the value of x is 5
(A)
P(<em>X</em> < 61.25) = P((<em>X</em> - 55.4)/4.1 < (61.25 - 55.4)/4.1)
… ≈ P(<em>Z</em> ≤ 0.1427)
… ≈ 0.5567
(B)
P(<em>X</em> > 46.5) = P((<em>X</em> - 55.4)/4.1 > (46.5 - 55.4)/4.1)
… ≈ P(<em>Z</em> > -2.1707)
… ≈ 1 - P(<em>Z</em> ≤ -2.1707)
… ≈ 0.9850
Do you mean an extraneous solution? I will tell you what I think. To tell if a solution is extraneous you need to go back to the original problem and check if there actually is a solution or if the solution is actually right. If not then it is extraneous.
