A quick way to answer all 1-10 is to multiply the starting price by 1.##. So for number 1 the equation would be 18 x 1.07 which equals $19.26. Question 2 would be
14 x 1.20 which equals $16.80. I think you got it from here.
Answer:
Mr. Nelson paid $48 befor tax.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the price of the item before tax.
108 % * x - x = 3.84 (the tax itself)
27/25x - x = 3.84
2/25 x = 3.84
x = 48
Suppose:
C=cost
c=cost per kilo-watt hour
w=number of watts
h=number of hours
thus
C=kwhc
where:
k=constant of proportionality:
k=C/(whc)
but
C=15 when w=6000, h=10/60=1/6 hours, c=7.5 cents per kw/h
thus
k=15/(6000*1/6*7.5)
k=0.002
thus:
C=0.002(whc)
hence:
when
h=70*2=140=140/6=70/3 hours the cost will be:
C=0.002(6000*70/3*7.5)
C=2100 cents
C=$21
