Set up a proportion
90/x = 60/100
60x = 9000
x = 150

if you're wondering why I used 60 instead of 40 in the proportion it is because $90 is 60% of the original price, not 40%

hope this helps!

Ed wants to borrow $20,000 from a bank to open a small gym. Three banks charge different interest rates. To help decide the best

Delicious77 [7]

Answer:

First bank = $6792

City bank = $6803

Star bank = $6817

Step-by-step explanation:

The lists of banks and their annual interests rates are attached.

For first bank, since the interest is 7.5%, The total interest = 7.5% of $20000 = 0.075 × $20000 = $1500

For city bank, since the interest is 8.2%, The total interest = 8.2% of $20000 = 0.082 × $20000 = $1640

For Star bank, since the interest is 9%, The total interest = 9% of $20000 = 0.09 × $20000 = $1800

The loan plus interest for the banks annually are:

First bank = $20000 + $1500 = $21500

City bank = $20000 + $1640 = $21640

Star bank = $20000 + $1900 = $21900

The monthly payments for the banks are:

First bank = $21500 / 12 months = $1792

City bank = $21640 / 12 months = $1803

Star bank = $21800 / 12 months = $1817

Since The cost to run the gym each month is $5,000. Ed's total monthly expenses for each loan option = monthly payments + cost for each month. It is calculated as:

First bank = $5000 + $1792 = $6792

City bank = $5000 + $1803 = $6803

Star bank = $5000 + $1817 = $6817

After sales tax, a $600 antique clock costs $642. What is the sales tax percentage?

LenKa [72]

well, clearly the tax is the added 42 bucks, so hmmm if we take 600 to be the 100%, how much is 42 off of it in percentage?

$\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 600 & 100\\ 42& x \end{array} \implies \cfrac{600}{42}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{100}{7}=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 100x=700\implies x=\cfrac{700}{100}\implies x=7$
