Answer:
Rita paid 47,500 dollars for the purchase price.
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given the sales tax on a new car is directly proportional to the purchase price of the car which means there is is something k such that
when you multiply it to the sales tax you get the purchase price.
Let's set this equation:
y=kx
Let y represent the purchase price and x the sales tax.
The second sentence tells us that (x,y)=(1500,30000).
We can plug this into y=kx to find the constant k. (Constant means it stays the same no matter what the input and output is).
So we have:
30000=k(1500)
300 =k(15) I went ahead and divided previous equation by 100.
Now divide both sides by 15:
300/15=k
Simplify:
20=k
So the equation to use the answer the question is
y=20x
where y is purchase price and x is sales tax.
So we want to know the purchase price on a car if the sales tax is 2375.
So replace x with 2375:
y=20(2375)
y=47500
Answer:
1/4.
Step-by-step explanation:
That is 1 - (1/4 + 2/5 + 1/10).
The Lowest common multiple 4 5 and 10 is 20 so we have
20/20 - (5/20 + 8/20 + 2/20)
= 20/20 - 15/20
= 5/20
= 1/4 answer.
the sum of 12 and a number/n
