Answer:
15 : 29
Step-by-step explanation:
(3 3/4) / (7 1/4) = ((3·4+3)/4) / ((7·4+1)/4)
= (15/4) / (29/4) = 15/29
The ratio of the two numbers is 15 : 29.
If the tax was 10%, then you’d end up paying the original 100% plus the additional 10% tax, so you’d pay 110% of the original price.
In your example, it’s the same, except you have 8.25% tax, so you’d pay 100%+8,25% or 108.25% of the original price.
That’s stated as a percent.
To convert a percent to a decimal, you divide by 100:
108.25 ÷ 100 = 1.0825
To convert a decimal to a fraction, you have to know the place value of the smallest place. In this case, the 5 is in the ten thousandths place.
10825/10000
You can always double check that fraction on a calculator.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
5x + 13y = 232
12x + 7y = 218
For each choice:
a) The first equation can be multiplied by –13 and the second equation by 7 to eliminate y. So we have
- 65x - 169y = - 3016
84x + 49y = 1526
Can not eliminate x and y.
b) The first equation can be multiplied by 7 and the second equation by 13 to eliminate y. So we have
35x + 91 y = 1624
156x + 91y = 2834
Can not eliminate x and y if we ADD.
<em>(If we subtract, this is Yes)</em>
<em></em>
c) The first equation can be multiplied by –12 and the second equation by 5 to eliminate x.
-60x - 156y = - 2784
60x + 35y = 1090
The answer is YES
d) The first equation can be multiplied by 5 and the second equation by 12 to eliminate x.
25x + 65y = 1160
144x + 84y = 2616
Can not eliminate x and y
The final answer is C
