Answer:</h2>
Each month, 2.8% Ramon's earnings are spent on electricity.
<h2>
Step-by-step explanation:</h2>
You know, that 100 percent are his earnings - $1,880
Now, you need to find out, how much is 1%. You do that by dividing $1,880 by 100.
Now you have to divide the amount he pays on electricity - $53.3 by one percent of his earnings - $18.8
So, now you know, that he pays exactly 2.83511% of his earnings on electricity. But from assignment, you know, that it has to be rounded to the nearest tenth of a percent. The number is 2.8351. So we will round it to 2.8% ,because 3 is rounded down. (https://www.mathsisfun.com/rounding-numbers.html)
100% = $1,880
$1,880/100 = $18.8
$53.3/$18.8 = 2.83511
2.83511% ≈ 2.8%
Step-by-step explanation:
the general slope intercept form is
y = ax + b
a is the slope (and always the factor of x). it is expressed as ratio y/x indicating how many units y changes, when x changes a certain amount of units when going from one point to another.
b is the y-intercept, the y value of the point, where the line crosses the y-axis (in other words : the y value when x = 0).
so, look at the chart. where do we see points with integer coordinates (these are the easiest to read correctly and work with) ?
I see for example (0, -6) and (4, -7).
to go from the first to the second point :
x changes by +4 units (from 0 to 4).
y changes by -1 unit (from -6 to -7).
the slope a is therefore -1/4.
and the first point i picked gives us also automatically the y-intercept (-6).
so, the line equation is
y = (-1/4)x - 6
Answer:
141
Step-by-step explanation:
First, you would round 72.91 to 73 because the number to the right of 7 is greater than or equal to 5, so you would round up. Same goes for 67.526. round both up to 73 and 68 then add. You would get an answer of 141 :)
