1. We assume, that the number 3000 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.
<span>2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for. </span>
<span>3. If 100% equals 3000, so we can write it down as 100%=3000. </span>
<span>4. We know, that x% equals 600 of the output value, so we can write it down as x%=600. </span>
5. Now we have two simple equations:
1) 100%=3000
2) x%=600
where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:
100%/x%=3000/600
6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.
7. Solution for 600 is what percent of 3000
100%/x%=3000/600
<span>(100/x)*x=(3000/600)*x - </span>we multiply both sides of the equation by x
<span>100=5*x - </span>we divide both sides of the equation by (5) to get x
<span>100/5=x </span>
<span>20=x </span>
<span>x=20
So 600 is 20% of 3000</span>
Answer:
The interest is
<h2>$ 769.50</h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Simple interest is given by

where
P is the principal
R is the rate
T is the time given
From the question
The principal / P = $ 5700
The rate / R = 4.5%
The time given / T = 3 years
So the interest is


We have the final answer as
I = $ 769.50
Hope this helps you
Answer: 0.838 is the answer to this problem
Because 1.000 - .162= 0.838
B. the slope is positive because its in a straight line
