To re-phrase this: 50 is a certain percent of 90.
this can be written mathematically as 50=x%*90
let's divide both sides by 10:
5=x%*9
and divide both sides by 9:
which in decimals is approximately 0.56 (but not exactly).
so 0.56=x%
and the x then 56
so 50 is
approximately 56% of 90:
exactly 56%of 90 is 50.4
Answer:
96,000
Step-by-step explanation:
To round to the nearest thousand, we need to look at the digit in the hundreds place, which is 6. Since 6 > 5, we know that we need to round up (because 6 is closer to 10 than it is to 0). Currently, the number is 95 thousand so when rounding up, the answer will be 96,000.

Answer:
<u>Cost = 25 + 50h</u>
cost for 8 hours of work = $425
cost for 10 hours of work = $525
Step-by-step explanation:
The question is as following:
A plumber charges $25 for a service call plus $50 per hour of service write an equation to represent the cost of hiring this plumber.
what will be the cost for 8 hours of work? 10 hours of work?
=======================================================
A plumber charges $25 for a service call plus $50 per hour
<u>Cost = 25 + 50h</u>
Where h is the number of hours of service
8 hours of work: h = 8
Substitute with h = 8 at the equation of cost
<u>Cost = 25 + 50* 8 = $425</u>
10 hours of work: h = 10
Substitute with h = 10 at the equation of cost
<u>Cost = 25 + 50 * 10 = $525</u>
