Hello, thank you for choosing to ask your question.

First, we have to find out what would 30% of 35 is.

To answer that, just use a common calculator or find out what 10% of it is and keep adding up.

So, 30 percent of 35 is 10.5.

Next, we have to find out what 6% of 24.50 is.

To find out the answer, you have to really use a calculator to find out. It would be way simpler and easier.

So, open your calculator. Then do "24.50 multiplied by 6%"

We are left with 1.47.

Now add 1.47 to 24.50. Your final answer is 25.97.

  y = 0 -3

  y = -3 . . . . the "initial value"
