Answer:

$740.00

Step-by-step explanation:

85% of x is 629

Translate into algebra. Use a decimal in place of the percent:

.85x = 629

Divide by .85

x = 740

This answer makes sense because the regular price should be a little higher than the sale price. If they are paying 85% they're only getting 15% off.

Check:

740×.85 = 629

Show that 0.235555......can be expressed in the form
juin [17]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

Suppose x = 0.2355555... .

Multiply x by 100 and 1000:

100x = 23.5555....

1000x = 235.5555....

Let's subtract the first equation from the second:

1000x - 100x = 235.5555.... - 23.555.....

Because the decimal part for each goes on forever, we can simply cancel them out in our subtraction statement:

900x = 235 - 23 = 212

Divide both sides by 900:

x = 212/900 = 53/225

Thus, since x = 0.235555..., we know that:

0.23555.... = 53/225

Since p = 53 and q = 225 are integers, we have proven that this repeating decimal can be written as a fraction.

George is 12 years older than Jeannie the sum of their ages in 5 years will be 50 how old is Jennie now
Bess [88]

Answer:

14 years old

Explanation:

Use this system of equations if G=George and J=Jeannie:

G-12=J

50=(G+5)+(J+5)

So, change second equation becomes

40-G=J

Then use substitution:

G-12=40-G

2G=52

G=26

Then, to find Jeannie’s age, go back to one of the equations and substitute G.

26-12=J

So, J=14

Jeannie is currently 14 years old.
