Answer:

x=10

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm assuming you needed to solve for x. Here is how you do it:

first, divide both sides by 4/5 to get x by itself.

this will give you x=8 divided by 4/5.

To solve 8 divided by 4/5 you do keep switch flip.

keep the first number (8), switch the sign (division to multiplication), and flip the other fraction (4/5 to 5/4) then you can just multiply across the top (8/1 *5/4) which equals 40/4. This simplified is 10

Choose the correct answers for (a) the total installment price, (b) the carrying charges, and (c) the number of months needed to

Brrunno [24]

Part A:

Given that a dinette table with a cash price of $200 is purchased at $8.50 down and $11.00 per month for 24 months

The total installment price is given by

$P=\$8.50+\$11(24) \\ \\ =\$8.50+\$264=\$272.50$

Part B:

The carrying charges is given by the total installation price minus the cash price.

From part a, we obtained that the total installation price is $272.50 and given that the cash price is $200.

Therefore, the carrying charges is given by

$272.50 - $200.00 = $72.00

Part C:

If the money is to be saved at $11 per month to be able to purchase the table at the cash price, the number of months it will take to be able to save $200 at $11 per month is given by

$\frac{\$200}{\$11} =18.18\, months$

Therefore, it will take 19 months to save the money at the monthly rate needed to buy the item for its cash price.
