I'll give a practice problem to help explain it a bit better.
Here, let's try to solve 45% of of 60.
First, we convert the percentage into a decimal. To turn any percentage into a decimal you move the point two spaces to the left.
That means 45% as a decimal is .45.
Next, we multiply our number, 60, by the decimal .45.
60×.45=27.
That means 45% of 60 is 27.
To sum it all up, you have to get the percentage, move the decimal point two spaces to the left, and multiply it by the number you were trying to find the percentage of.
Have a wonderful day! :)
Answer:
C(x) = 25 + 2x
Step-by-step explanation:
He already has 25 cards.
He is collecting 2 cards per month. In x months, he will have collected:
2 * x = 2x cards
That means that the number of cards he will have after x months will be the sum of the cards he already has and the cards he collects per month:
C(x) = 25 + 2x
The monthly rate of growth for the savings account is $8.40.
I'm not following. What's the question?
