P - What is the PROBLEM - Why is there a need to make a choice?
A - What are the ALTERNATIVES - What are the possible choices available?
C - Establish the CRITERIA - Why is one choice better than the other?
E - EVALUATE the alternatives - How well does each choice meet the criteria?
D - Make a DECISION - What is the best choice?
2x + 4 = 3(x - 2) + 1
2x + 4 = 3x - 6 + 1
2x + 4 = 3x - 5
9 = x
So x = 9
First, write the rate as a decimal by moving the decimal point two places to the left from the percent.
r = 5% = 0.05
C = p + rp
C = 30.99 + 0.05 * 30.99
C = 30.99 + 1.55
C = 32.54
Answer: The total cost is $32.54
