Answer:
vehicle's invoice price is:
$17,400
Step-by-step explanation:
Sarah paid $18,444 for a new car last week.
This price was 6 percent above the vehicle’s invoice price.
Let the vehicle's invoice price be x.
⇒ [tex]\dfrac{100+6}{100}\times x=18444[/tex]
⇒ [tex]\dfrac{106}{100}\times x=18444[/tex]
⇒ [tex]x=\dfrac{100}{106}\times 18444[/tex]
⇒ x=17400
Hence, vehicle's invoice price is:
$ 17,400
The percentage is the ratio of an increased amount to the total amount. Then the amount of invoice price is 17400 dollars.
