Please don't ask 2 questions in 1 question
remember that percent is parts out of 100 so x%=x/100
basically just remove the percent sign and move the decimal place 2 places to the left to convert to fraction
the first one
20 dollars
4.75% tax
15% tip
it depends if you want to tip on the total with tax or without tax
it is better to top on the without-tax value since tax comes from you so
find 4.75% of 20 and add that to 15% of 20 then add that to 20 to get the proper value
scenarios
1. 20+(20 times 4.75%)+(20 times 15%)=23.95
2. ([(20 times 104.75%)] times 115%)=24.09
both are bellow $25 so $25 shoudl be enough to cover it
total cost of a spa treatment of 42 with 6% tax and 20% tip
so you could again do two things:
1. apply tax and give tip on the new amount
2. find the tip and add that to the tax of only 42
scenarios:
1.(42 times 106%) times 120%=$50.4
2. (42 times 20%) +(42 times 106%)=$52.92
it depens on what you tip on
Answer:
You have to translate these sentences into expressions. I am not going to solve all of these because if I explain one/two problems to you, you'll get the hang of it. Seven more than three times a number: 7+3x; Five times a number decreased by six: 5x-6
Step-by-step explanation:
Why? We don't know what number that is, so we can put any variable like (x, y, z, a, b, etc.). Three times a number is simply that number times 3. In this case we would input: 3*x, or 3x. 7 more than that number is 3x+7. Five times a number decreased by six: 5x-6 . Remember: it is simply 5*x which simplifies to 5x. Decreased is take away, so take away 6, and get 5x-6
Key words: Quotient: the result after dividing two/or more numbers; Product: the result after multiplying two/ or more numbers; Decreased: take away (Example: x decreased by 7=x-7)
I hope you understand!! It is very simple after you start to get the hang of it!!
