<span>Lois used a credit card to make the purchase.
One can't purchase an item that costs more than the balance in a debit card. The debit card is equivalent to cash on hand. You can only spend what you have.
The credit card is equivalent to a loan. You don't have the money as of the moment but when you use the credit card, you owe the issuing bank the amount you've put on credit. The bank will pay the merchant and you will pay the bank. Interest is an additional expense when you pay your bill beyond the due date. The interest is applied on the amount outstanding upon the payment due date. </span>
To calculate the percentage increase: First: work out the difference (increase) between the two numbers you are comparing. Then: divide the increase by the original number and multiply the answer by 100.
45-32 = 13 / 32 *100= 40.625 round to the nearest percent is 41%
65*0.20=13 (0.20 because 20/100=20% is 0.20 in decimal form)
65-13=52
open the parenthes. and then after that you'll get 27+12x-15. if you simplify that then you'll get 12x+12
Answer:
$2.7
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the price of one apple be x
and the price of one orange y
Hence ;
One apple and 3 oranges would cost:
x + 3×y = $5.10----------------------------(1)
One apple and 5 oranges would cost;
x + 5×y = $7.50--------------------------(2)
Subtracting eqn (1) from (2), we have :
x-x + 5y -3y = 7.5- 5.1
2y = 2.4
y = $1.2
From eqn(1)
x + 3y = $5.10
x= $5.10-3($1.2) = $5.10-$3.6 = $1.5
Hence x=$1.5 and y= $1.2
We are required to find the cost of one apple and one orange, hence :
x+y = $1.5+$1.2= $2.7
