23、ice of the homes sold. For 2010, the sum is equal to(351)($275,000), or $96,525,000. For 2009, the sum is(503)($250,000), or $125,750,000, which is greater than the sum for 2010. So statement A is false. For 2011, the sum is(390)($175,000), or $68,250,000, which is less than the sum for 2010. So sta

24、tement B is true. Since the sum for 2009 is greater than the sum for 2011, statement C is true. The correct answer consists of Choices B and C. This explanation uses the following strategy. Strategy 4: Translate from a Figure to an Arithmetic or Algebraic Representation 7 【正确答案】 E 【试题解析】 The total p

25、rice of all the homes sold in 2009 is equal to the number of homes sold times the mean price of the homes sold. The tax is 3% of this amount. Since the choices given are far apart, there is no need for accurate computations. Using estimation, you get a total price of about(500)($250,000), or $125 mi

26、llion. The tax of 3% is(0.03)($125 million), or approximately $3.75 million. Of the choices given, $3,800,000 is closest to this amount. The correct answer is Choice E.

28、wing strategies.Strategy 4: Translate from a Figure to an Arithmetic or Algebraic Representation Strategy 9: Estimate 9 【正确答案】 E 【试题解析】 For most of the years, a rough estimate of - of the per capita income is sufficient for the comparison to the revenue per student. For the years 1930, 1940, 1950, a

29、nd 1960, you might estimate - of the per capita incomes as $1,300, $1,400, $2,000, and $2,500, respectively, which are clearly greater than the corresponding revenues per student.For 1980 and 1990, your estimates might be $4,000 and $5,000, which are less than the corresponding revenues per student.

30、For 1970, you do have to calculate = $3,468, which is greater than $3,440.So the revenue per student was less than 1/5 of the per capita income for the five years 1930, 1940,1950,1960, and 1970. The correct answer is Choice E.This explanation uses the following strategies.Strategy 4: Translate from

31、a Figure to an Arithmetic or Algebraic Representation Strategy 9: Estimate 10 【正确答案】 8.6% 【试题解析】 Here the whole is 150 and the part is 12.9. = 0.086 = 8.6%To find the part that is a certain percent of a whole, you can either multiply the whole by the decimal equivalent of the percent or set up a pro

32、portion to find the part. 11 【正确答案】 25 【试题解析】 Use the decimal equivalent of 60%. Because 60% of some number z is 15, multiply z by the decimal equivalent of 60%, or 0.6.0.6z=15Now solve for z by dividing both sides of the equation by 0.6 as follows.z = = 25 Using a proportion, look for a number z su

33、ch that Hence, 60z =(15)(100), and therefore, z = = 25. That is, 15 is 60% of25. Although the discussion about percent so far assumes a context of a part and a whole, it is not necessary that the part be less than the whole. In general, the whole is called the base of the percent. When the numerator

34、 of a percent is greater than the base, the percent is greater than 100%. For example, 15 is 300% of 5, since and 250% of 16 is( )(16)=(2.5)(16)= 40. Note that the decimal equivalent of 250% is 2.5.It is also not necessary for the part to be related to the whole at all, as in the question, “a teache

35、r s salary is what percent of a banker s salary?“When a quantity changes from an initial positive amount to another positive amount, for example, an employees salary that is raised, you can compute the amount of change as a percent of the initial amount. This is called percent change. If a quantity

36、increases from 600 to 750, then the percent increase is found by dividing the amount of increase, 150, by the base, 600, which is the initial number given: = 0.25 = 25%We say the percent increase is 25%. Sometimes this computation is written as (100%)=25%If a quantity doubles in size, then the perce

37、nt increase is 100%. For example, if a quantity changes from 150 to 300, then the percent increase is = 100%If a quantity decreases from 500 to 400, calculate the percent decrease as follows. = 0.20 = 20%The quantity decreased by 20%.When computing a percent increase, the base is the smaller number.

38、 When computing a percent decrease, the base is the larger number. In either case, the base is the initial number, before the change. 12 【正确答案】 $1,456 【试题解析】 The percent increase is 12%. Therefore, the value of the increase is 12% of $1,300, or, using the decimal equivalent, the increase is(0.12)($1

39、,300)= $156. Thus, the value of the investment after the change is $1,300+ $156 = $1,456 Because the final result is the sum of the initial investment 100% of $1,300 and the increase 12% of $1,300 the final result is 100% + 12% = 112% of $1,300. Thus, another way to get the final result is to multip

40、ly the value of the investment by the decimal equivalent of 112%, which is 1.12: ($1,300)(1.12)= $1,456 A quantity may have several successive percent changes. The base of each successive percent change is the result of the preceding percent change. 13 【正确答案】 2.48% 【试题解析】 If E is the enrollment befo

41、re the first month, then the enrollment as a result of the 8% decrease can be found by multiplying the base E by the decimal equivalent of 100% - 8% = 92%, which is 0.92: 0.92E The enrollment as a result of the second percent change the 6% increase can be found by multiplying the new base 0.92E by t

42、he decimal equivalent of 100% + 6% = 106%, which is 1.06: (1.06)(0.92)E = 0.9752E The percent equivalent of 0.9752 is 97.52%, which is 2.48% less than 100%. Thus, the cumulative percent change in the enrollment for the two months is a 2.48% decrease. 14 【正确答案】 (a)19 (b)-3 (c)8 (d)89 (e)0 (f)1,296 (g
