Answer:

25 ; 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :

____________For __ Against __ No Opinion

21-40 years _________20 _______5

41-60 years ___20 ______________20

Over 60 years _55____ 15________ 5

Given that :

40% of 21-40 are against

Then :

40% = 20

To a obtain 100% of 21 - 40

40% = 20

100% = x

Cross multiply

0.4x = 20

x = 20/0.4

x = 50

100% of 21 - 40 = 50 people

For = 50 - (20 + 5)

= 50 - 25

= 25

2.)

Total who have no opinion :

(5 + 20 + 5) = 30

30 = 15%

Total number surveyed will be , x :

30 = 15%

x = 100%

Cross multiply :

0.15x = 30

x = 30/0.15

x = 200

Number of 41 - 60 against an increase, y:

(25 + 20 + 5 + 20 + y + 20 + 55 + 15 + 5) = 200

165 + y = 200

y = 200 - 165

y = 35

Jeremy wants to give a 20% gratuity to his cab driver. His fare was $35.50. What is the total amount he will pay the driver?
Anna [14]
$42.60. You multiply 35.50 by .20 (that's decimal version of 20%) which equals 7.10. Then you add 35.50+7.10=42.60
