I always had trouble doing percents, but my last algebra teacher taught me an easy way, where you turn the percent into a decimal.
Maria: to find 25% of 26.50, you multiply 26.50 by 0.25 to get 6.625. now, you subtract 6.625 from 26.50 to get 19.875. which would round to 19.88$. To find the 10% sales tax, you multiply 19.88 by 0.10 or 0.1 to get 1.988. that would round to 2.00. She would then add 19.88 and 2.00 to get 21.88$.
Edwin: I am not even sure how to figure out Edwin's math, his is not even comprehendible for me.
When I'm shopping, I always use Maria's method to figure out the price of things, therefore, I am 99% sure she is correct and Edwin is not. If it said that they both came with 23$, and the price of the book is now only 21.88, then yes, they have enough money to purchase the book.
and sorry this took long, I'm multitasking.
Answer:
-8
Step-by-step explanation:
you know, all you have to do in such a case is simply taking the given -2 and put it, where there is "x" in the function expression and then calculate this. if necessary with a calculator.
2×2×x with x=-2 is
2×2×-2 = -8
Answer: the median and they should predict size 8
Step-by-step explanation:
It is this answer because if you put the numbers in order from least to greatest and then start to find the median you will get two answers for the median and the numbers you should get are two 8 so then you add the two 8's up and then you get 16 so then you divide it by 2 and you will get 8 and that is your answer.
