Mathematics

8 0

Answer:

Jason's percentage is 68%

We end up getting 32% for Karen.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to get the total amount of votes.

17 + 8 = 25.

25 is the total amount of votes. If Jason had got 17/25 votes we can do 2 steps to get his percentage. We can simply divide 17 by 25, or we can multiply the numerator and denominator by 4. We end up getting 68/100.

So Jason's percentage is 68%

Now we do Karen. 8/25 people voted for her, so we can again, do two ways to solve this. One way is dividing 8 by 25, another way is to multiply both the numerator and denominator by 4 because we want it out of 100.

We end up getting 32% for Karen.

Rates and ratios simalar
Alex777 [14]
Rate is closer to a constant pattern , example: I'm walking at a rate of 2 miles an hour.

Ratio is related to the proportion of two or more objects, example: The ratio for a perfect tang juice is 1 packet of tang dust thingy for 1.5 liters of water.

Hope it helps :)

Mark McClennan signed a simple discount note for $2,950 for 100 days at a rate of 8.5%.
Mkey [24]
To get the effective interest rate (EIR) of the loan, determine first whether we will use a simple interest method or a discounted method. In this case, we will use a discounted method because the loan is a discounted one. In a discounted method, interest is deducted from the loan principal. So the formula will look like this:

EIR = Interest ÷ (Principal - Interest) 

Before proceeding any further, solve first for interest. (assuming a 360-day year)
Interest = Principal × rate × interest
= $2950 × (100/360) × (0.085)
= $69.65

Thus, EIR can be computed as follows: 
EIR = ($69.65 ÷ ($2950 - $69.65)) × 360
≈ 8.7%

Notice that the EIR was multiplied by 360 to return it to an annual rate.

Solve the inequality for #5 Please! (Ignore my horrible handwriting im a lefty lol)
NISA [10]

Question:

Solve the inequality:

5.1 – r ≥ 5

Answer:

r ≤ 0.1

Solution:

Step 1: Given inequality:

5.1 – r ≥ 5

Step 2: Subtract 5.1 from both sides of the inequality

⇒ 5.1 – r – 5.1 ≥ 5 – 5.1

⇒ – r ≥ – 0.1

Step 3: To reverse the inequality, multiply both sides by –1.

⇒ (–r) × (–1) ≥ – 0.1 × (–1)

Negative × Negative = Positive

⇒ r ≤ 0.1

Hence the solution to the given inequality is r ≤ 0.1.
