The increase in price is 140% of the original price.
The original price was 100% of the original price since 100% is a whole quantity.
Now the new price is 140% more than it was, so the new price is
100% + 140% of the old price.
100% + 140% = 240%
Now we find 240% of $50.
To find a percent of a number, multiply the percent by the number.
240% of $50 =
= 240% * $50
= 2.4 * $50
= $120

Answer:
31.4 yards
Step-by-step explanation:
Radius (R) = d / 2
R = 10 / 2 = 5 yards
Circumference (C) = 2 π r
C = 2 * 3.14 * 5 yards
C = 31.4 yards
Answer:
x2 = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
If the variables x and y are inversely proportional, the product x * y is a constant.
So using x1 and y1 we can find the value of this constant:



Now, we can use the same constant to find x2:



So the value of x2 is 60.
