The cost of a pair of ice skates went from $200 to $140. What is the percent change in the cost of skates?

Mathematics
1 answer:
dmitriy555 [2]3 years ago
3 0

so the pair went down from 200 to 140, so the difference is 200 - 140 = 60.

so if we take 200 as the 100%, what is 60 off of it in percentage?

\bf \begin{array}{ccll} amount&\%\\ \cline{1-2} 200&100\\ 60&x \end{array}\implies \cfrac{200}{60}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies \cfrac{10}{3}=\cfrac{100}{x}\implies 10x=300 \\\\\\ x = \cfrac{300}{10}\implies x = 30

A die is loaded in such a way that an even number is twice as likely to occur as an odd number. If is the event that a number le
andrew11 [14]

Answer:

4/9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Die is designed such that even numbers are twice as likely to occur as odd number.

Hence,

Sample space :

1, 2, 2, 3, 4, 4, 5, 6, 6

Total possible outcomes = 9

Probability that a number less than 4 occurs on a single toss of the die.

Probability = required outcome / Total possible outcomes

Required outcome = number less than 4 [1, 2, 2, 3]

Hence,

P(obtaining a number less than 4):

(Number of possible outcomes less than 4 / total number of events in sample space)

= 4 / 9

What is the area of the figure?<br>10.2 in.<br>3 in.<br>3 in<br>2 in.<br>2 in.<br>8 in.<br>6.2 in​
Lubov Fominskaja [6]

Answer:

B. 80.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The easiest way to find the area of this figure is to divide it into two rectangles.

First, let's find the area of the top rectangle.

10.2 * 3 = 30.6

The area of the top rectangle is 30.6 square in.

Now let's find the area of the second rectangle:

6.2 * 8 = 49.6

The area of the bottom rectangle is 49.6 square in.

Lastly, we have to add the areas of the two rectangles together.

30.6 + 49.6 = 80.2

The area of the entire figure is 80.2 square inches.
