It depends on how your employer gives the discount. If he gives the total 35% off the $450 then your cost would be $292.50 plus tax. But if he gives you the addtional 20% after the original 15% has been taken then it would break down like this.\n\n$450 x 0.15 = $67.50\n$450-$67.50=$382.50\n$382.50 x 0.20=$76.50\n$383.50-$76.50=$306.00 plus tax

Nothing is lost. Their contribution is 47$ (23.5 $ each). This sum includes the 2$ for the cab, so the 2$ should not be added again to get the 49 sum.\n\n25$   25$\n---------\n1.5   1.5.......back\n1     1.........cab\n22.5  22.5......pen cost\n---------\n25$   25$\n\n=>Each paid 23.5$, the shop received 45 (22.5 from each), and the cab received 2$(1 from each).

You want 431+M(.205)=M(.445) - that's where you went wrong.  The other folks before me answered your question correctly; it just wasn't set up right, which is why you didn't get the answer you were expecting.\n\nSince 431 represents dollars, you need to have your other numbers be expressed in terms of dollars too.  20.5 cents is 0.205 in terms of dollars, and 44.5 cents is 0.445 in terms of dollars.\n\nSo now you can solve:\n\n431 + .205m = .445m\n\nSubtract .205m from both sides to get:\n\n431 = .24m\n\nDivide both sides by 0.24 to get:\n\n1795.8333... = m\n\nSo, at roughly 1,796 miles the two reimbursements are equal.\n\n~ ♥ ~

The intercept is $50 since this is the minimum charge. The slope is $80 per hour so the total cost is\n\nCost= $80*hours + $50

Your item cost x dollars. \n\nTo show the cost plus the tax, you'd say:\nx + .12x = $5000\n\n(it costs "x" amount, and you have to add 12% to it, or .12)\n\nSimplify that to:\n\n1.12x = $5000\n\nSolve for x, so now you get:\n\nx = 5000/1.12\n\nx = $4464.29

mine was $600.00, but it all depends on where you are and who handles it for you, i would call a check around, good luck .

I'd say from bout $300 - $450 .

That problem is the way you state the question.  They each paid $15 * 3 = $45.  Her returned $5, so the total paid to the store is $40.\n\nNow each got one dollar back, so they paid in $14*3 = $42, and the one boy has the extra $2 which needs to be split.  There is no extra dollar:  $42 - $2 = $40!!

It sounds like you are trying to find the marginal percentage to get you back to $10.  That can be calculated by taking the new cost $11 - old cost $10 (equals $1) then dividing that $1 by the new cost of $11 to get the marginal percentage of 9.090909%.  If you take the 9.090909% from $11, it will leave you with the original $10.
