Answer: 5%.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given data:
Old price = $28,640
New price = $27,208
Solution:
Percentage of decrease
= old price - new price / old price * 100
= $28,640 - $27,208 /. $28,640 * 100
= $1432/$28,640*100
= 0.05*100
= 5%.
The percentage of decrease for the car is 5%.
Answer:
55 performances
Step-by-step explanation:
The first equation will be the total cost. The total cost has $88,000 already and then $5,900 is added with each performance. So the equation would be 88,000+5,900x because x will represent the number of performances.
y = 88,000 + 5,900x
The next equation will be how much the performances earn. If they earn $7,500 with each performance then the equation will be 7,500x, with x representing the number of performances
y = 7,500x
Now set the equations equal to each other and solve for x
7,500x = 88,000 + 5,900x
1,600x = 88,000
x = 55
They need to have 55 performances for the cost and the revenue to break even.
Approximately 7.2 units <span />
Remember, mean is average. So first you add them all up, and then divide by the total number. All the dollars added up and then divided by 6 equals 59. So, working backwards, if you multiply 6 (the number of categories) by 59 you get the total of all money earned from every category. 6 times 59 equals 354. But if you add what you can see right now, it only equals 274. So the t-shirt total must be the difference between the two... 80 dollars.
The answer is true!
