Answer:

$570

Step-by-step explanation:

If she marks up the sofa for 90%, she will change the price to 760$

Now, 25% of 760$ is 190$. So, we subtract 190 from 760 and get 570$

Hope this helped, and have a good one!

A city has 3 new houses for every 9 old houses. If there are 21 new houses in the city, how many old houses are there?

kipiarov [429]

To find your answer you would divide 21 by 3 which would be 7, once you've got 7 you would multiply it by 9 which would give you the amount of old houses that there is which would be 63.

Determine the currents in the picture

Elenna [48]

Answer:

The value of currents are $I_1=0A$ , $I_2=1A$ and $I_3=1A$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

The Ohm's law states that

$V=IR$

it is given that the V₁=3V and V₂=4V.

In a parallel circuit:

Voltage is same in each component

Sum of the currents equals to the total current that flows.

$I_2=I_1+I_3$ .... (1)

Equation for first loop is,

$V_1=4I_1+3I_2$

$3=4I_1+3I_2$ ..... (2)

Equation for second loop is,

$V_2=1I_3+3I_2$

$4=1I_3+3I_2$ ..... (3)

On solving (1), (2) and (3) we get

$I_1=0$

$I_2=1$

$I_3=1$

Therefore the value of currents are $I_1=0A$ , $I_2=1A$ and $I_3=1A$ .

What if we draw three socks from the box instead. what is the probability that we draw a matching pair? (having all three socks

frutty [35]

There is a chance of 1/16*1/15 that she gets the specific socks pair according to laws of probability and the counting principle but thats not how it will work over here.

As we should be guaranteed that she gets the number of socks she obviously must take out around 9 socks as we are taking the worst case scenario where all the socks that come out are the different ones so the ninth sock must match any of the others.

But if we draw three socks obviously the probability is 1/16*1/15*13/14 as we dont want the third one to be same. We can multiply the answer by 3 as it can be in three different orders.

For the figures below, assume they are made of semicircles, quarter circles and squares. For each shape, find the area and perim

ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

Part a) The area of the figure is $\frac{9}{2}(4+\pi )\ cm^{2}$

Part b) The perimeter of the figure is $3(2+2\sqrt{2}+ \pi)\ cm$

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

Find the area of the figure

In this problem we have that

The figure ABC is the half of a square and the other figure is a semicircle

<u>Find the area of the figure ABC</u>

we have

$AB=6\ cm, BC=6\ cm$

The area of the half square ABC is equal to find the area of triangle ABC

so

$A1=\frac{1}{2}*6*6=18\ cm^{2}$

<u>Find the area of the semicircle</u>

The area of the semicircle is equal to

$A2=\pi r^{2}/2$

we have that

$r=6/2=3\ cm$

substitute

$A2=\pi (3)^{2}/2$

$A2=(9/2) \pi\ cm^{2}$

The area of the figure is equal to

$18\ cm^{2}+(9/2) \pi\ cm^{2}= \frac{9}{2}(4+\pi )\ cm^{2}$

Step 2

Find the perimeter of the figure

The perimeter of the figure is equal to

$P=AB+AC+length\ CB$

we have

$AB=6\ cm$

Applying Pythagoras theorem

$AC=\sqrt{6^{2}+6^{2}}\\AC=6\sqrt{2}\ cm$

Remember that

the circumference of a semicircle is equal to

$C=\frac{1}{2}2\pi r=\pi r$

$r=6/2=3\ cm$

$C=\pi(3)$

$C=3 \pi\ cm$

The perimeter of the figure is equal to

$P=6\ cm+6\sqrt{2}\ cm+3 \pi\ cm$

Simplify

$P=3(2+2\sqrt{2}+ \pi)\ cm$

Isaiah And Cooper work at a dry cleaner Ironing shirts.isaiah can iron 25 shirts per hour, and Cooper can iron 30 shirts per hou

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

340/25 = 13.6 = 13 hours and 10 min

30 x 13.6 = 408 hours

25x+30y= 340 and y=2x can be used to determine the number of hours cooper worked and the number of hours isaiah worked. Where x Isaiah 's working hours and y is cooper's working hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Isaiah ironing rate per hour = 25 shirts

Cooper ironing rate per hour = 30 shirts

Total shirts pressed = 340

Let,

Isaiah´s number of hours = x

Cooper's number of hours = y

According to given statement;

25x+30y=340 Eqn 1

Hudson worked twice many hours as grace.

y = 2x Eqn 2
