She will have to pay $2,700.
She is starting with a bill of $11,000. If we subtract the 1500 grant and 5000 scholarship, she has left a bill of 4500.
She is going to earn 40% of it, so she still have to pay 60% of it.
0.6 x 4500 = 2700
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.
Answer: 24 $100 bills, even though this will add up to more than 2324 dollars, it is the amount needed to cover the price
Step-by-step explanation: divide 2324 dollars by 100
Answer:
X=-8
Step-by-step explanation:
4x+4=-32
Add -4 to both sides
4x=-32
decide both sides by 4
x=-8
10/19. 40/4=10, and 56/4=19. therefore the answer is 10/19.
