Q: If the sales tax on a $$60 item is 1.80$$, what is the sales tax rate as a percentage?

$$\frac{1.80}{60} \times 100 = 3\%$$

Q: At a dinner party, $$\frac{2}{3} of $$the guests ordered a salad and $$\frac{1}{4} of $$those who ordered salad also ordered soup. What percentage of all diners at the party ordered both salad and soup? (Round to integer)

$$\frac{2}{3} \times \frac{1}{4} = \frac{2}{12} = \frac{1}{6} \approx 17\%$$

Q: Gordon purchased a television with an original price of $500 at a 40\% discount. What was the final sale price?

$$500 - (0.40 \times 500) = 500 - 200 = 300$$

Q: A number is divided by 7. The result is divided by 3, for a final result of 2. What was the original number?

$$x = 2 \times 3 \times 7 = 42$$

Q: Solve for $$q in$$ $$\frac{3}{5} = \frac{18}{q + 2}.$$

$$3(q + 2) = 5 \times 18 \implies 3q + 6 = 90 \implies 3q = 84 \implies q = 28$$

Question 1

Accepted Answer

$$q(p - \frac{c}{q})$$

Question 7

A number is divided by 7. The result is divided by 3, for a final result of 2. What was the original number?

Accepted Answer

$$x = 2 	imes 3 	imes 7 = 42$$

Question 8

Half a number plus 3 is 11. What is the number?

Accepted Answer

$$\frac{x}{2} + 3 = 11 \implies \frac{x}{2} = 8 \implies x = 16$$

Question 9

Solve for the positive value of $$x in$$ $$\frac{x^2$ - 5}{4} = 5.$$

Accepted Answer

$$x^2 - 5 = 20$$ \implies $$x^2 = 25$$ \implies x = 5$$

Question 10

Solve for $$q in$$ $$\frac{3}{5} = \frac{18}{q + 2}.$$

Accepted Answer

$$3(q + 2) = 5 	imes 18 \implies 3q + 6 = 90 \implies 3q = 84 \implies q = 28$$

Question 11

Given the line $$y = mx + b$$ shown in the graph ($$image_7$$), what is the value of $$b$$?

Accepted Answer

$$b = 18$$

Question 12

Given the line $$y = mx + b$$ shown in the graph ($$image_7$$), what is the value of $$m$$?

Accepted Answer

$$m = \frac{0 - 18}{6 - 0} = -3$$

Question 13

Given the line $$y = -3x + 18$$, what is the value of $$x$$ when $$y = 14$$?

Accepted Answer

$$14 = -3x + 18 \implies -3x = -4 \implies x = \frac{4}{3}$$
