Answer:
0.5289 to the nearest thousandth is 0.529.
Step-by-step explanation: If a number is less than 5, round down, but if a number is 5 or more, round up. The digit after the thousandths place is the digit we should look at to answer the question and it is 9, so we round up from 0.528 or 0.529. So, the answer is 0.529.
Answer:
Let the retail cost be x and the wholesale cost be y
Step-by-step explanation:
x = y + 0.50y
x = 1.50y
Therefore the retail cost is 1.50 times the wholesale cost.
P = w * .6
Explanation: First, we must determine the price per pound of watermelon. To do this, we take the cost of the watermelons, and divide it by the number of pounds. 4.38 / 7.3, which is .6. This tells us each pound costs 60 cents, or $.6. We’re trying to say “The total price of watermelon would be the amount of watermelon bought times .6.” Plug in the variables you’re given, and you get p = w * 6.

First I found the number of adults by multiplying .60 by 700. It was 420. From there all I had to do was subtract it from 700. Revealing the number of children to be 280.
9.82-9.71=.11
.11x100 divided by 9.82 = 1.12%
