Let the original price of the sweater be = X
Then the amount Jerome pays for the sweater after 20% discount = X - (20X/100)
= X - 0.2X
= 0.8X
Now on this price the 8.25% tax needs to be added to get to the amount actually paid by Jerome.
So,
0.8X + [(8.25/100) * (0.8X) = 25.1
This is the equation from which the actual price of the sweater bought by Jerome can be determined.
So
0.8X + [(.0825) * ( 0.8X) = 25.1
0.8X + 0.066X = 25.1
0.866X = 25.1
X = 25.1/0.866
= 28.98
So the actual price of the sweater is $28.98.
$208
Steps:
10% of 130 is 13
13 x 6 would give you 60%
13 x 6 is 78
60% = 78
130 + 78 = 208
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
x^3 = 1/8
Taking the cube of both side
x^3 = 1/(2)^3
(x)^3 = (1/2)^3
Eliminate ^3 from both sides
x = 1/2
Answer: the second one
Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is D thirteen multiplied by h is 13h. The word "is" typically means = so 13h=104. to solve for this you want to isolate the h on one side of the equation. to do this we need to get rid of the 13 and move it on the other side of the equation. the new equation is h=104÷13. So, h=8. Hope this helps!
