Answer:
The total cost of the ink supplies can be represented in two different ways, as follows:
a. 3p (1+r)
b. p * (1+ r) * 3
Step-by-step explanation:
a) Data and Calculations:
Number of printer cartridges bought = 3
Sales tax rate = 7%
The total cost can be represented as:
Total cost = 3p (1+r)
where p = the price of a printer cartridge
and r = the sales tax rate
Alternatively, the total cost can be represented as:
Total cost = p * (1+ r) * 3
b) Whichever expression is used, the total cost derived will remain the same. The first expression includes the sales tax in the total cost, while the second expression includes the sales tax in the cost of the unit before arriving at the total cost.
102% as a fraction would be 102/100, because a percent is by the one hundreds, and you can have a fraction be by hundreds. You can reduce the fraction by dividing it by 2, which equals 51/50. Another example, to clarify, is to make 41% a fraction, and decimal. Once again a percent is base 100, so the fraction would be 41/100, then to make it a decimal, you would put a decimal point in front of the 41, to make it .41. Hope I helped, and if you don't understand, tell me and I will try to make it better.
1/2 + x + 1/6 > = 1
First add the 2 fractions:
1/2 + 1/6 = 2/3
Now you have:
2/3 + x > =1
Subtract 2/3 from both sides:
x >= 1 - 2/3
X > = 1/3
Answer:
Answer: 1/81
First you simplify it to 3^-4
Then express it with a positive exponent
which goes to 1/3^4
Then evaluate it to 1/81
2X-3 = -3/4x -1/4
Add 3 on both sides: 2X = -3/4x + 2.75
Add -3/4x on both sides: 2.75X = 2.75
Divide 2.75 on both sides: x= 1
hope this helped
