Answer:
<em>The washing machine cost $600 before tax</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Percentages
</u>
The washing machine cost $651 including a tax of 8.5%.
If x was the cost of the washing machine before tax, then the tax was:
x*8.5/100 = 0.085x
It was added to the original price:
x + 0.085x = 1.085x
That is the final price, thus
1.085x=$651
Solving:
x = $651/1.085
x = $600
The washing machine cost $600 before tax

Answer: The company will make 720 dollars (I dont know the percentage out of that though).
Step-by-step explanation: 1.10 times 1000= 1100. 35 percent of that is 385 dollars worth to charity or 350 lapel pins. 1000 minus 350 equals 650. 650 times .6 equals 390. 390 times 3 dollars= 1170 dollars. 650 times .4 = 260. 260 divided by 2 = 130, 130 times 5 dollars equals 650 dollars. 650 plus 1170= 1820. 1820-1100= 720.
