Answer:
12.5%
Step-by-step explanation:
The price increased from 800 to 900. So what is the PERCENTAGE INCREASE??
The increase is 900 - 800 = 100
To find this in terms of original, we need to divide 100 by 800 and multiply by 100 to get the "percentage". Let's do it:
So the increase is 12.5% and thus the general sales tax is 12.5%
The statements that apply to the algebraic expression are
The complete question is added as an attachment
The statement is given as:
Twice the difference of a number and six
Represent the number with n.
So, the statement becomes
Twice the difference of a n and six
Twice means 2 *
So, we have
2 * difference of a n and six
Express difference as minus i.e. -
So, we have
2 * (n - 6)
Hence, the expression is written as 2(n - 6)
