A. $33,614.85
B. $34,543.75
C. $34,998.15
D. $36,528.75

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:  D) $36,528.75

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

Explanation:

Positive inflation eats away at the purchasing power of money.

If inflation is 4.5%, then the purchasing power goes down by 4.5% meaning his purchasing power is 100% - 4.5% = 95.5% of what it used to be.

95.5% of $38,250 = 0.955*38250 = 36,528.75

So his purchasing power is $36,528.75

Answer 2

The purchasing power of Bart by the income of last year is option D. $36,528.75.

What is Inflation?

Inflation can simply be defined as the increase in the rate of the prices over a period of time. In other words, inflation describes how much more expensive has a commodity or service becomes in a period of time.

It is clear that, inflation decreases the purchasing power of money.

Given that, the inflation rate is 4.5%.

Also, Bart had an income of $38,250 last year.

Purchasing power will get decreased by 4.5%.

Purchasing power = $38,250 - ($38,250 × 4.5%)

                              = $38,250 - (1721.25)

                              = $36,528.75

Hence the purchasing power of Bart is $36,528.75.

Answers

Answer:

slope(m)=4 and

y-intercept(c)=-5/2

Step-by-step explanation:

here,8x-2y=5

reducing it into slop intercept form we get,

2y=8x-5

or,y=8/2x+(-5/2)

or,y=4x+(-5/2)

comparing it with y=mx+c we get,

slope(m)=4 and

y-intercept (c)=-5/2

Answers

Answer:

y=[tex]\frac{9}{2\\}[/tex] x-13

Step-by-step explanation:

first, since it's parallel the slope has to be the same and the y-intercept has to be different.

you will have y=9/2x+b

find b, by using the points you are given so you will get

-4=(9/2) times (2)+b.

then when sloving you will get b=-13 and so the full equation will be

y=9/2x-13

Robert and his younger sister are selling gift wrap to raise funds for the middle school band. Robert's sales are 2.5 times his sister's sales.

B Robert's sister's sales total $18.00. C Robert's sales are represented by x when solving 2.6x=63 . D Robert's sales total $25.20. E Robert's sister's sales are represented by x when solving 3.5x=63 .

Answers

Answer:

B. Robert's sister's sales total $18.00.

E. Robert's sister's sales are represented by x when solving 3.5x = 63 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

Robert sister's sales = x

Robert sales = 2.5 * x

= 2.5x

Total sales = Robert sister's sales + Robert sales

63 = x + 2.5x

63 = 3.5x

Divide both sides by 3.5

x = 63 ÷ 3.5

= 18

x = $18.00

Robert sales = 2.5x

= 2.5(18)

= $45.00

A. Robert's sales are represented by x when solving 3.5x=63 .

No

B. Robert's sister's sales total $18.00.

Yes

C. Robert's sales are represented by x when solving 2.6x=63 .
