The best thing to do is to find what 1% is, and you can do this by dividing 150 by 100.
150/100= 1.5
As you're looking for 6.5%, you've got to multiply 1.5 by 6.5
1.5*6.5= 9.75
You've then got to add 9.75 and 150 together
150+9.75= $159.75
Therefore, after the sales tax, the cost of the necklace is $159.75

Answer:
yes, they do have enough flour for both recipes
Step-by-step explanation:
they have a total of 4 cups of flour, one needs 2 1/3 cups and the other person needs 1 3/4 cups.
4- 2 1/3= 1 1/3
1 1/3- 1 1/3= 0
this means they have the perfect amount of flour for both recipes.
Let the number be x
Form the equation : 5x + 1 ≤ 10
5x ≤ 10-1
5x ≤ 9
X ≤ 9/5
so X can be 9/5 or any values smaller than that.

Answer:
33.1%
Step-by-step explanation:
First, calculate the dollar amount of the increase. Subtract $32,500 from $43,250. We get $10,750.

fraction = $10,750/$32.500 = 0.331
Convert this to a percentage by multiplication by 100%: 33.1%
The rate of increase of the saleperson's salary was 33.1%.
