A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. The regular selling price of the computer notebook will be $937.5.

<h3>What are Percentages?</h3>

A percentage is a way to describe a part of a whole. such as the fraction ¼ can be described as 0.25 which is equal to 25%.

To convert a fraction to a percentage, convert the fraction to decimal form and then multiply by 100 with the '%' symbol.

Let the selling price of the computer notebook be represented by x.

Now, if Sara buys the computer this week, the selling price of the computer will be (100%-16%)x = 0.84x.

Also, the saving she made by buying this week will be $150, therefore, we can write,

x-0.84x = $150

0.16x = $150

x = 937.5

Hence, the regular selling price of the computer notebook will be $937.5.

Mr. Barnett’s test is normally distributed with a mean of 65 with a standard deviation of five points what is the probability th
uranmaximum [27]

Answer: 2.5%

Step-by-step explanation:

Mean score = 65

Standard deviation = 5

Score (x) = >75

Z-score = [(score - mean) ÷ standard deviation]

Z - score = [(75 - 65) ÷ 5]

Z - score = 10 ÷ 5 = 2

P(score higher than 75) = 100 - 95 = 5/2 = 2.5%

A Ferries wheel had a radius of 58 feet. What is the distance a passenger will travel one time around the Ferries wheel?
topjm [15]

Answer:

364.42 ft.

Step-by-step explanation:

For step 1 we should multiply pi by r and 2.

π x r x 2

For step 2 we should multiply pi by 58 and 2.

π x 58 x 2

In result, we should end up with 364.424748 ft. or for short 364.42 ft.

I hope I helped you... Have a great and nice day! :D

8. The speed of the current in a river is 6 mph. A ferry operator who works that part of the river is looking to buy a new boat
Natali [406]
Answer: the speed of the boat on the lake is 9 mph
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the speed of the boat on the lake or in still water.
The speed of the current in a river is 6 mph. This means that if the boat goes upstream against the speed of the current, its total speed would be (x - 6)mph. If the boat goes downstream against the speed of the current, its total speed would be (x + 6)mph.
Time = distance/ speed
Every day, his route takes him 22.5 miles each way against the current and back to his dock, and he needs to make this trip in a total of 9 hours. This means that the time taken to travel upstream is
22.5/(x - 6). The time taken to travel downstream is
22.5/(x + 6)
Since the total time is 9 hours, it means that
22.5/(x - 6) = 22.5/(x + 6)
Cross multiplying, it becomes
22.5(x + 6) + 22.5(x - 6) = 9
Multiplying through by (x + 6)(x - 6), it becomes
22.5(x - 6) + 22.5(x + 6) = 9[(x + 6)(x - 6)]
22.5x - 135 + 22.5x + 135 = 9(x² - 6x + 6x - 36)
22.5x + 22.5x = 9x² - 324
9x² - 45x - 324 = 0
Dividing through by 9, it becomes
x² - 5x - 36 = 0
x² + 4x - 9x - 36 = 0
x(x + 4) - 9(x + 4) = 0
x - 9 = 0 or x + 4 = 0
x = 9 or x = - 4
Since the speed cannot be negative, then x = 9
