Explanation:

Let the old price be x.

The equation can be framed as follows,

\begin{gathered} (\frac{100-25}{100})\times x=20.99 \\ \frac{75}{100}\times x=20.99 \\ x=20.99\times\frac{100}{75} \\ x=27.986 \\ x\approx27.99 \end{gathered}

AlladinOne [14]

Answer:

Part A:

Blueprint 10 inches ⇒ Actual 35 feet

Blueprint 20 inches ⇒ Actual 70 feet

Part B:

The cost of the cover is $857.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A:

∵ The drawing scale is 2 inches for 7 feet

∵ The length = 20 inches and the width = 10 inches

∴ The actual length = (20 × 7) ÷ 2 = 70 feet

∴ The actual width = (10 × 7) ÷ 2 = 35 feet

Part B:

∵ The cost per square foot = $0.35

∵ The area of the pool = 70 × 35 = 2450 feet ²

∴ The cost of the cover = 2450 × 0.35 = $857.5

The area of the base of a rectangular prisim four and three fourths and the height of two and one third what is the volume
VikaD [51]
Data:
A_{base} = 4 \frac{3}{4} = \frac{4*4+3}{4} = \frac{16+3}{4} \to A_{base} = \frac{19}{4}

h (height) = 2 \frac{1}{3} =  \frac{3*2+1}{3} = \frac{6+1}{3} \to h (height) = \frac{7}{3}
v (volume) = ?

Formula: V =  A_{b}*h

Solving:
V = A_{b}*h
V =  \frac{19}{4} * \frac{7}{3}
V =  \frac{133}{12}
V = 11.08333....
\boxed{\boxed{V \approx 11.08}}\end{array}}\qquad\quad\checkmark
