We have been given that Jenna saves $3 for every $13 dollars she earns. Vanessa saves $6 for every $16 she earns.
We can compare the ratios of saved money to earned money by Jenna and Vanessa as:
Let us simplify our equation.
We can see that
, therefore, Jenna's ratio of money saved to money earned is not equivalent to Vanessa's ratio of money saved to money earned.
The markup is 8%, meaning it costs 8% more.
The starting price is 100%.
Therefore, the markup is 108% of $12.
If we multiply 12 by 108% (1.08), we will get our answer of $12.96
To calculate the tax multiply $860 by .06 (6%) to get $34.40.
To calculate the total amount you'll pay add $34.40 to $860 to get $894.40.
Answer:
y = 2
Step-by-step explanation:
Since the line is parallel to the x-axis,
the gradient, m = 0
From the point, we know that
x = 5
y = 2
So y = 2 is the line that parallel to x-axis
