A computer store decides to increase the prices of all the items it sells by 15%. The store manager uses matrices to prepare the

The manager could perform scalar multiplication on Matrix A, using the scalar 1.15.

Increasing the price by 15% would mean we are taking 100% of the value + another 15%; 100+15 = 115%; 115% = 115/100 = 1.15.

Multiplying every value in Matrix A by 1.15 will give the price raised by 15%.

A body builder consumed 5,600 calories yesterday. Today, he consumed 4,200 calories.
hammer [34]

well, the difference from 5600 to 4200 is 1400.

If we take 5600 to be the 100%, how much is 1400 off of it in percentage?

\begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 5600&100\\ 1400&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{5600}{1400}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 4=\cfrac{100}{x} \\\\\\ 4x=100\implies x=\cfrac{100}{4}\implies x=25

A governor of state A earns 53,435 more than the governor of state B. If the total of their salaries is 290,395, find the salari
Pepsi [2]
Let A and B represent the governor's salaries of states A and B, respectively.

A - B = 53,435
A +B = 290,395

Add these two equations to eliminate B.
2A = 343,830
A = 171,915

B = A -53,435 = 118,480

The governor of state A has a salary of 171,915.
The governor of state B has a salary of 118,480.
