Suppose the original price to be x.
62%x=296.4
Divide both sides by 62% to get x=478, which is the original price.

Answer:

Rounded: $478.06

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up an equation:

Variable x = original price

62/100 = 296.40/x

Cross multiply

62 × x = 100 × 296.40

62x = 29,640

Divide both sides by 62:

x = 478.064516....

Round to nearest cent (hundredths place):

x = 478.06

Check your work (using the rounded estimate will be close to $296.40 but not exact because it is rounded; once you round your answer and it should match):

478.06 × 62%

Convert the percentage into a decimal:

478.06 × 0.62

296.3972

Round to the nearest cent (hundredths place):

296.40

The question is incomplete. Here is the complete question:

Mr.yueng graded his students math quizzes students came up with four different answers when solving the equation x3=22. Which answers is correct.

(A) \frac{22}{3}

(B) \sqrt[3]{22}

(C) \pm \sqrt[3]{22}

(D) \sqrt{22}

Answer:

(B) \sqrt[3]{22}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

The equation to solve is given as:

x^3=22

Here, the left hand side of the equation has a variable 'x' in exponent form. So, in order to solve for 'x', we have to eliminate the exponent.

For removing the exponent, we have to take cubic root on both the sides. As we know that,

\sqrt[n]{x^n} =x

So, taking cubic root on both the sides, we get

\sqrt[3]{x^3}=\sqrt[3]{22}\\\\x=\sqrt[3]{22}

Therefore, the second student has written the correct answer and hence the correct option is (B).
