Percent formula : is/of = % / 100
what percent of 21.5 is 55.04...
% = x....because this is what we r looking for
is = 55.04
of = 21.5
now we sub into the formula
55.04 / 21.5 = x / 100
cross multiply because this is a proportion
(21.5)(x) = (100)(55.04)
21.5x = 5504
x = 5504 / 21.5
x = 256 <== so ur answer is 256%
Hello!
We separate this into three sections
we are looking for a graph that has a line where x is greater than -3 and less than -2 while the circles not shaded since it does have the or equal to sign
The graphs that have this is the first and the third
Next we can look for the graph that has x greater than or equal to -2 and less than 3 with the one at -2 shaded but the one at 3 not
The graph that follows this is the third graph
The answer is the third one
Hope this helps!

The problem is asking how much each person will need to pay. Simplifying the problem into an equation with variables (an algorithm) will greatly help you solve it:
S = Sales Tax = $ 7.18 per any purchase
A = Admission Ticket = $ 22.50 entry price for one person (no tax applied)
F = Food = $ 35.50 purchases for two people
We know the cost for one person was: (22.50) + [(35.50/2) + 7.18] =
$ 47.43 per person. Now we can check each method and see which one is the correct algorithm:
Method A)
[2A + (F + 2S)] / 2 = [ (2)(22.50) + [35.50 + (2)(7.18)] ]/ 2 = $47.43
Method A is the correct answer
Method B)
[(2A + (1/2)F + 2S) /2 = [(2)(22.50) + 35.50(1/2) + (2)7.18] / 2 = $38.55
Wrong answer. This method is incorrect because the tax for both tickets bought are not being used in the equation.
Method C)
[(A + F) / 2 ]+ S = [(22.50 + 35.50) / 2 ] + 7.18 = $35.93
Wrong answer. Incorrect Method. The food cost is being reduced to the cost of one person but admission price is set for two people.
