Given is the price increase of a ticket from 50p to 60p.

Using the concept of fractions, we can find the ratio of new price to old price as follows :-

\frac{new \;\; price}{old \;\; price} = \frac{60p}{50p} =\frac{6}{5}

So the increase in price is \frac{6}{5} times old price of the ticket.

Using the formula of percentage, we can find the percentage change in price as follows :-

Percentage = \frac{(new\;\;price \;-\; old\;\;price) }{old \;\; price}*100 \\\\ Percentage = \frac{60p-50p}{50p}*100 \\\\ Percentage = \frac{10p}{50p}*100 \\\\ Percentage = 20\;\%

Hence, Percentage increase is 20% of the original price.

A store charges 7% sales tax. Which expression can be used to find the total cost of an item with a price of p? 0.07p 0.93p 1.07
Zanzabum

If you have an item that costs 10 dollars and a sales tax of 7% you could do it this way


10 * 7/100 = 0.70 dollars.


The total cost is 10.70 dollars. or 10 dollars and 70 cents.

The best way to do the total however is to multiply the cost by 1.07. You will get the number the customer has to pay.

10 * 1.07 = 10.70

So for any price (p) it would be 1.07*p

GarryVolchara [31]
If the glasses were origanum 40, and were on sale for 26,we minus them from eachother to find out how much money was saved. So 40-26= 14, if $14 was saved we put 14 over the original price and times it buy 100 14/40x100= 35% So 35% was saved. 100-35= 65. Therefore 65% of the original price was paid and 35% was saved.

Suppose the following regression equation was generated from the sample data of 50 cities relating number of cigarette packs sol
frez [133]

Answer:

A) According to the regression equation, regardless of whether or not smoking is allowed in bars, the number of cigarette packs sold per 1000 people decreases by approximately 1424 for each additional dollar of cigarette tax.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the regression equation:

PACKS i= 57221.431732 − 1423.696906TAXi + 155.441784BARSi + eᵢ.

BARS i= 1 if city i allows smoking in bars

BARSi = 0 if city i does not allow smoking in bars

R2 = 0.351292

P-value = 0.086529

Conlusion:

Simnce p value, 0.0865 is greater than level of significance, 0.05, BARS is not significant. Thus, allowing smoking in bars increase cigarette sales, since the coefficient of BARS is positive.

Correct answer is option A.

According to the regression equation, regardless of whether or not smoking is allowed in bars, the number of cigarette packs sold per 1000 people decreases by approximately 1424 for each additional dollar of cigarette tax.
