Maria fay bought four dunlop tires at a local goodyear store. the salesperson told her that her mileage would increase by 4%. before this purchase, maria was getting 22 mpg. what should her mileage be with the new tires? (round to the nearest hundredth.)

22.88 mpg

Step-by-step explanation:

An increase of 4% can be represented as (100% + 4%). Think of it as you're getting 100% and an additional 4%.

Now multiple your original mileage by the increase:

22(100% + 4%)

=22(1.00 + .04)

=22(1.04)

=22.88

the formula for converting absorbance to transmittance goes as:

a = log (1/t)  a = 2 - log(%t)  10^a = 1/t  t = 10^-a  %t = 100(10^-a)

so at the given value of a,   a = 1.5

%t = 100(10^-1.5)

%t = 3.16%
