B explination ?????????,????,? &#£$£$£$£$£$???
36.3 because the digit in the hundredths place is not 5 or greater
Answer:
A book is worth $1 and a DVD is worth $12.
Step-by-step explanation:
The equations (2 unknowns and two equations, d is for a DVD and b is for a book):
For David: 3d+4b=40
For Anna: d+6b=18
Now multiply the second equation with -3 and add to the first equation:
3d+4b=40
−3d−18b=−54
Combined equation: −14b=−14 and b=1 (means that each book is worth $1).
Now for DVD price, use the second equation:
d=18−6 or d=12 (means that each DVD is worth $12).
A book is worth $1 and a DVD is worth $12.
To solve this problem you have to set up a proportion. To form one side of the proportion you use "is over of" meaning what number represented by is, in this case 18, is placed over the number represented by of, 3000.
Since you are finding the percent of something, youre x value is placed above "100" because percent values are most commonly out of 100%.
So now your proportion will look like
To solve the proportion you cross multiply and divide. So you multiply 100 and 18 since they are crossed from each other, then divide 1800 by 3000. The answer is .6. 18 is .6% of 3000.
