Percy paid $24.10 for a basketball. The price of the basketball was $22.99. What was the sales tax rate?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: First, determine the difference between the amount Percy paid and the price of the basketball. That is, $24.10 - $22.99 = $1.11. Divide this value by the price of the basketball and multiply the quotient by 100% to get the tax rate.
($1.11 / $22.99) x 100% = 4.8%
Thus, the sales tax is approximately equal to 4.8%.

Convert 879/112 to whole or mixed number

Answers

$\sf{ (879)/(112) =?}$

$\sf{ 112 * 7 = 784}$

$\sf{ 879 -784= 95}$

$\sf{ (879)/(112) = (784+95)/(112) = (784)/(112) + (95)/(112) = 7 + (95)/(112) = 7 (95)/(112)}$

$\sf(879)/(112) = \boxed{7 (95)/(112)}$

I don't know what you mean by "or" but I will do either one of them

879/112 to mixed number =

879 ÷ 112

= 7 R95

= 7 95/112

The denominator remains the same, the numerator is the remainder. While 7 is the whole number! :D

Which of the following equations shows direct variation between u and v? Choose all answers that are correct. A. v =1/u + 6 B. v/u = 9 C. 0.5(1/u) = v D. 3.5u = v

Answers

Direct variation is when U increases V will increase and when U decreases V will decrease. The answer to your question is D. 3.5u = v. I hope that this is the answer that you were looking for and it has helped you.

Antonio has read 147 pages of a book . He has completed 70% of the book.How many more pages does he need to read to finish the book?

Answers

Answer:

He needs to finish 63 pages.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of pages he has to read = x,

The percentage of the book he has finished = 70%,

Thus, the number of pages he has finished = 70% of 147,

$=(70x)/(100)$

According to the question,

$(70x)/(100)=147$

$70x=14700$

$x=(14700)/(70)=210$

Hence, the remaining pages he needs to read = total pages - pages which are finished

= 210 - 147

= 63

Dwayne is selling hamburgers and cheeseburgers. He has 100 burger buns. Each hamburger sells for $3, and each cheeseburger sells for $3.50. Which system of inequalities represents the number of hamburgers, h, and the number of cheeseburgers, c, he must sell to have sales of at least $80? h + c ≤ 80 3h + 3.5c ≤ 100 h + c ≤ 80 3h + 3.5c ≥ 100 h + c ≤ 100 3h + 3.5c ≤ 80 h + c ≤ 100 3h + 3.5c ≥ 80

Answers

Given:
hamburger = h ; sells for 3
cheeseburger = c ; sells for 3.50
100 burger buns

h + c = 100

3h + 3.5c > 80 last option.

⁵⁵⁾21/34 = ²⁾1155/1870 = 2310/3740

³⁴⁾34/55 = ²⁾1156/1870 = 2312/3740

2310/3740 < 2311/3740 < 2312/3740

Answer:

A fraction between that is 2311/3740

Step-by-step explanation:

This is because the denominator is simplified into one number and the fraction is taken from there.
