Answer:

14.28%

Step-by-step explanation:

I'm not sure if it's right but this is how I worked it out,

the box's contents are 4.2 pounds in total,

therefore in a fraction it would be 6/42

you turn a fraction into a percentage you do the numerator divided by the denominator

6÷42=0.142857(decimal form)

now you just turn it into a percentage

14.28%

please correct me if I'm wrong

Ricardo earned $52,000 last year. He just received a 3% salary increase. What is his new yearly salary?
Juli2301 [7.4K]
<h3>Answer:  53,560 dollars</h3>

=======================================================

Explanation:

Having the salary increase by 3% means we can use the multiplier 1.03

Think of it like 100% + 3% = 1 + 0.03 = 1.03

The new salary is 52,000*1.03 = 53,560 dollars

----------------

The slightly longer way to do this is to first figure out how much 3% of 52,000 is

3% of 52,000 = 0.03*52,000 = 1560

Ricardo earns $1560 more dollars on top of the salary of $52,000

So overall his new salary is $1,560 + $52,000 = $53,560

----------------

Personally, I prefer the first method because it's quicker and it allows for multiple percentage increases to chain together. It also could be used to chain in percentage decreases as well.

A student loan needs to be paid off beginning the first year after graduation. Beginning at Year 1, there is $52,000 remaining t
Rom4ik [11]

Answer:

The equation is: f(x) = 52000 - 8000x

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Initial = 52000

Rate = 8000 each year

Required

Determine the equation of the graph

The equation can be determined using.

Amount = Initial - Rate* Years

We used minus (-) because, the amount reduces as the student pays.

Let

y = Amount

x = Years

So, we have:

y = Initial - Rate * x

Substitute values for Initial and Rate

y = 52000 - 8000 * x

y = 52000 - 8000x

Express as a function:

f(x) = 52000 - 8000x

Answer:

  1. 18x - 9 = 72
  2. 3(6x - 3) = 72
  3. x = 45

Step-by-step explanation:

Apply the distributed property:

  1. Apply the distributed property: 3/5 × 30x = 18x, 3/5 × 15 = 9
  2. Re-write the equation: 18x - 9 = 72
  3. 18x - 9 = 72 is an option listed, so that's one of the answers.

See the other options:

  1. Another option that looks like it could be the answer is 3(6x - 3) = 72
  2. Apply the distributed property like we did above, so it now looks like this: 18x - 9 = 72
  3. This is the same as what we got above, so it is also an answer.

Solve:

  1. Add 9 to each side, so it now looks like this: 18x = 81
  2. Divide each side by 18 to cancel out the 18 next to x. It should now look like this: x = 4.5
  3. x = 45 is an option listed, so that's one of the answers.

I hope this helps!
