They will have to pay a $42 increase so a total of $742.
There are 162 tens but if you want to be exact, there are 162.7
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
I'm not sure my way is going to be any quicker or better. Let's take an example.
Suppose you start with 456
Put a decimal at the end of the 6. You get 456.
Shift the decimal to the left one place 45.6
Divide by 2
22.8 (done mentally)
Note: dividing by 2 is easier than dividing by 5. Or multiplying by 5 for that matter.
Check the result.
456 * 5/100 =2280 / 100.
Shift a decimal 2 places to the left.
22.80 which agrees with your result.
Answer:
We start with the equation:
A: 3*(x + 2) = 18
And we want to construct equation B:
B: X + 2 = 18
where I suppose that X is different than x.
Because in both equations the right side is the same thing, then the left side also should be the same thing, this means that:
3*(x + 2) = X + 2
Now we can isolate the variable x.
(x + 2) = (X + 2)/3
x = (X + 2)/3 - 2
Then we need to replace x by (X + 2)/3 - 2 in equation A, and we will get equation B.
Let's do it:
A: 3*(x + 2) = 18
Now we can replace x by = (X + 2)/3 - 2
3*( (X + 2)/3 - 2 + 2) = 18
3*( (X + 2)/3 ) = 18
3*(X + 2)/3 = 18
(X + 2) = 18
Which is equation B.
Answer: 2.2214
Step-by-step explanation:
0.07 x 39.98 = 2.7986 (is tax)
2.7986 + 39.98 = 42.7786
45.00 - 42.7786 = 2.2214
