Problem

Use a calculator to evaluate the formula for $x=105$. Round to the nearest hundredth if needed. \[ P=0.37 x-158 \] When $P=0.37 x-158$ is evaluated for $x=105$, the result rounded to the nearest hundredth is $P=$

Solution

Step 1 :Substitute the value of x into the equation: P = 0.37 * 105 - 158

Step 2 :Perform the multiplication: P = 38.85 - 158

Step 3 :Perform the subtraction: P = -119.15

Step 4 :Round the result to the nearest hundredth: P = -119.15

Step 5 :Final Answer: \(\boxed{-119.15}\)
