Answer:

$12

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3><u>Method 1</u></h3>

First, calculate the sale discount as a percentage using the given information about the pants.

  • $20 = Original price of pants
  • $15 = Sale price of pants

\sf percent\:change=\dfrac{|final\:value-initial\:value|}{initial\:value} \times 100

\implies \sf percent\:change=\dfrac{|15-20|}{20} \times 100=25\%

Therefore, the clothes are on sale with a 25% discount.

This means they are 75% of the original sale price, as 100% - 25% = 75%

To find the sale price of the shirt, we simply need to find 75% of the original selling price of the shirt:

  75% of $16

= 0.75 × $16

= $12

<h3><u>Method 2</u></h3>

Using ratios of original price : sale price, where x is the sale price of the shirt:

pants → 20 : 15

shirt → 16 : x

Therefore, as the ratios are the same:

   20 : 15 = 16 : x

⇒ 20/15 = 16/x

⇒ 20x = 16 · 15

⇒ 20x = 240

⇒ x = 240 ÷ 20

⇒ x = 12

raketka [301]

c. 4.6

       

21 X .22= 4.6

       

Calculating the variance requires finding the product of 21 and 22%. To make this easier we convert 22% into it's decimal form and construct the equation. To back check this answer we can use 10% of 21 voters which equals 2.1% then double that amount to reach 4.2%, knowing that we now have a close approximation of the variance we can eliminate answers a, b, and d, leaving c as the only logical choice.

A survey was conducted
inna [77]

Answer: 9/25 or 36%

Step-by-step explanation:

72 + 28 + 62 + 38 = 200

There are 200 people in total and 72 are youngsters who like sport cars.

So, the number of youngsters who like cars out of the total number of people is 72/200.

Now, find a greatest common divisor. In this case, the greatest common divisor is 8.

72 / 8 = 9

200 / 8 = 25

9/25 (fraction)

25 * 4 = 100

9 * 4 = 36

36/100 = 36% (percentage)
