Answer:

50,000

Step-by-step explanation:

1st car had $1,750 tax

2nd car has $3,500 tax

1750(2) = 3500

 

so your tax doubled so the price must be doubled.

The car is $50,000

Algebraically using direct variation:

 

t = kp    where t=tax, p = purchase price, 

             and k is constant of variation

 

1750 = 25000k

k = 1750/25000

k = 0.07

 

Your equation is:  t = 0.07p

3500 = 0.07p

p = 3500/0.07

p = $50,000

What is 24% of 1350 I will give 75 points
nika2105 [10]
<h3>Answer:</h3><h2>324.</h2><h3>Step-by-step explanation:</h3>

To find 24% of 1,350, you must multiply 24% by 1,350.

To do this problem, we must turn the numbers to fractions.

Twenty-Four hundredths, 24 / 100 is your fraction for 24%.

Put 1,350 over 1 since 1,350 is a whole number.

So:

24 / 100 x 1,350 / 1.

1350 x 24 = 32400, 100 x 1 = 100.

Your answer is 32,400 / 100.

Get rid of the 2 zeroes in 400 and 100.

It should be 324 / 1.

Since 1 is just the number 1, the answer is 324.
