If a box of 55 syringes costs $660.00, which of the following is the cost of four syringes?

When solving percent problems, the following words and their meaning becomes handy.

• Is means equals
• Of means multiply
• What means unknown (variable)

If we let x represent the amount of tip the couple want to leave behind, then

So, the couple will leave a tip of $2.84, which is about $3.00

: a ratio can be thought of a fraction of the form a/b, where b is not equal to zero. In ratio form, to means per.

Now, the class has 26 girls and 22 boys. Thus, the ratio of girls to boys becomes:

The fraction above reduces into

In ratio form, girls: boys=13:11

Thus, the ratio of girls to boys in a class of 48 students is 13 to 11.

We asked to convert kg to pounds. There are two ways of converting between kg and pounds

And

Since we are to find pounds, we use the second option for kg to cancel

The pound equivalent of 45 kg is 99 lb.

The distribution of the weights of the newborn babies is symmetric meaning the mean, mode, and median are all equal. Thus, the bell-shape curve describes this kind of distribution of weights

The net income is the salary of the teacher gets after deducting total taxes.

Weekly net income=weekly gross income-total tax

Total tax=federal income tax+state income tax+Social Security tax

Total tax=$(72.00+35.00+65.00)

Total tax=$172.00

Weekly net income=$(730.00-172.00)=$558.00

The net income the teacher gets in 4 weeks is what she gets in one week multiplied by 4

The teacher will earn a net income of $2,232.00 in 4 weeks after taxes are deducted.

An independent variable is a variable that when changed result in a change to other variables under investigation. From the given scenario, if the stock of the company increases, then the production, sales, and investment increase. Therefore, stock is the independent variable while other variables are dependent.

Before we compare the values of the options, we convert the decimals to fractions.

5.4 becomes 54/10

6.25 becomes 625/100

Thus, the set of fractions is 11/2, 54/10, 13/3, 625/100. The least common denominator for 2, 10, 3, and 100 is 300, which we use to compare each options given.

11/2*300=1650

54/10*300=1620

13/3*300=1300

625/100*300=1875

From the above, 1875 is the greatest value which corresponds to 6.25. Therefore, 6.25 is the greatest value of all the choices given.

To solve the equation this equation, we use a calculator and find the product as:

3.45 * 0.53= 1.8285

In this scenario, we use the given chart and scale provided to find the number of each coin and select the right number of coins the student collected.

It is clear that the first choice if the correct answer. The child collected 250 pennies, 200 nickels, 125 dimes, and 25 quarters.

We are needed to find the amount Jacob will be left with after spending and reinvesting the rest using the given information.

Amount Jacob spends=87% of $100=87/100*100=$87

Amount left to invest=$(100-87)=$13

Jacob is left with $13, which she invests and earns a profit of 75%.

Profit earned on invested amount=75% of $13=75/100*13=$9.75

So, Jacob will have $13+$9.75=$22.75
