Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

A. $2.00

B. $26.99

Step-by-step explanation:

0.5 x 49.99 = 24.995

49.99 - 24.995 = 24.995

0.08 x 24.995 = 1.9996 and round to the nearest hundredth

24.995 + 1.9996 = 26.9946

round to the nearest hundredth

Answer 2

Answer:

Part a: 1.9996

Part b: 26.9946

Step-by-step explanation:

STEP 1:

Find the unit rate (1% of 49.99). You should get 0.4999. Then, multiply 0.4999 by 50. You should get 24.995.

STEP 2:

Find the unit rate of 24.995. You should get 0.24995. Then multiply 0.24995 by 8. You should get 1.9996 (answer for part a).

STEP 3:

Add 1.9996 to 24.995. You should get 26.9946 (answer to part b).

The original price is $70.00

The problem states that $59.50 is the discounted price, this means that it is not the 100% price of the aquarium. Since 15% is the discount, the remaining price is equivalent to 85% of the original price, which amount to $59.50.

100% - 15% = 85%

100% - 15% = $59.50

To get original price, we must divide the discounted price by its corresponding percentage.

$59.50 / 85% = original price

$59.50 / 0.85 = $70

To check, we must get the 15% equivalent amount from the original price.

$70 x 15% = $10.50 discount value

$70 - $10.50 = $59.50 discounted price

70.00 because that’s what the answer would be that you’re looking for hope this helps
