Let's go through each question and find the correct answers together:
5.) Chris wants to buy a cell phone that costs $215.00. His parents say Chris must raise 35% of the money himself. How much money must Chris raise?
To calculate the amount of money Chris must raise, we need to find 35% of $215.00. To do this, we can multiply $215.00 by 0.35:
$215.00 * 0.35 = $75.25
So the answer is B. $75.25
11.) Max bought a pair of shoes for $93.00. He needs to pay the 7.4% sales tax. How much will Max need in sales tax?
To calculate the sales tax, we need to find 7.4% of $93.00. To do this, we can multiply $93.00 by 0.074:
$93.00 * 0.074 = $6.882
Since we're dealing with money, we usually round up to two decimal places, so the answer is $6.88.
Therefore, the correct answer is B. $6.88.
12.) Find the amount of sales tax for a DVD player that costs $75.00 at a 5% tax rate.
To calculate the sales tax, we need to find 5% of $75.00. To do this, we can multiply $75.00 by 0.05:
$75.00 * 0.05 = $3.75
Thus, the answer is B. $3.75.
13.) In 2000, the population at Arlington Middle school was approximately 421 students. In 2010, the population was approximately 584 students. Find the percent of change in the population at Arlington Middle school from 2000-2010 and identify it as an increase or decrease.
To find the percent of change, we need to calculate the difference between the initial population and the final population, then divide it by the initial population. Finally, we multiply the result by 100 to get the percentage.
The difference in population is: 584 - 421 = 163
To evaluate the percent of change, we divide this difference by the initial population: 163 / 421 = 0.387
Now, we multiply this result by 100 to get the percentage: 0.387 * 100 = 38.7
Since the population increased, the correct answer is C. 38.7% increase.
15.) What is the sale price for a pair of shoes that was originally $52.00 and now 25% off?
To calculate the sale price, we need to find 25% of $52.00, which means finding how much the discount will be. We can multiply $52.00 by 0.25:
$52.00 * 0.25 = $13.00
Now, we subtract the discount from the original price: $52.00 - $13.00 = $39.00
Thus, the answer is B. $39.00.
16.) Calculate the interest earned on a savings account with $800.00 that is invested at 5% annual simple interest for 5 years.
To calculate the interest earned, we need to multiply the principal amount ($800.00) by the interest rate (5%) and the time in years (5):
$800.00 * 0.05 * 5 = $200.00
So, the answer is C. $200.00.
