Given:
2 years ago - consumer price index 1,200 per month
current year - consumer price index 1,400 per month
Inflation rate = [(Consumer price index current - Consumer price index previous) / Consumer price index previous ] * 100%
Inflation rate = [(1400 - 1200) / 1200] * 100% = (200 / 1200) * 100% = 16.67%
Since 2 years has passed, the 16.67% inflation rate is good for 2 years. We simply divide the inflation rate by 2 to get the annual inflation rate.
16.66% / 2 = 8.33%
The annual inflation rate for the past two years is 8.33%
Answer:
4
Step-by-step explanation:
Another way to write this is 8/1 x 1/2. Then the answer would be 8/2. Simplify to get 4.
Answer:
17/24
Step-by-step explanation:
This expression simplifies to the following:
-7 15 1 1
---- * ----- - ----- + -----
18 -7 4 8
Reducing the product, we get
15 1
-------- - -----
18 8
and this simplifies further:
5 1
----- - -----
6 8
The LCD is 24. Thus, we have:
20 3 17
------ - ----- = -----
24 24 24
Answer:
$49.572
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that :
Cost per disc = $18
Number of disc purchased = 3
Discount received = 15%
Sales tax = 8%
Original cost : cost per dic * number purchased
Original cost = $18 * 3 = $54
Discounted price = (100 - 15)% * $54
Discounted price = $45.9
Sales tax :
(100 + 8)% of $45.9
108% * $45.9
= $49.572
Total price = $49.572
