Answer:

$2.81

Step-by-step explanation:

1.25 is 100% of the price

125% + 100% = 225%

x = price by august

x = 225% (1.25)

225% = 2.25

2.25(1.25) = 2.8125 ≈ $2.81

Another way to see it:

\frac{1.25}{x} = \frac{100}{225}

225(1.25) / 100 = 2.8125

Answer:

$11.10 per gallon.

There are 4 quarts in a gallon so the cost of a gallon of oil currently is 1.85×4=$7.40

If the gallon price of oil goes up 50% then our answer is: 7.40×==11.1

The price of oil in March will be $11.10 per gallon

I NEED HELP ASAP 85 POINTS At a bargain store, Tanya bought 5 items that each cost the same amount. Tony bought 3 items that eac
Andrei [34K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

A) 5x = 3(x - 2.5)

-----------------------

B)

Distribute

5x = 3x - 7.5

Subtract 3x from both sides

2x = -7.5

Divde both sides by 2

x = -3.75

-----------------------

C)

5 * (-3.75) = 3(-3.75 - 2.5)

-18.75 = -18.75

D)

Tanya paid –$3.75 for each of 5 items

Tony paid –$6.25 for each of 3 items

There seems to be an error in the question since the cost of items is negative

Tony bought fewer items and paid less for each.

What is a supplementary angle??
Olin [163]
A single angle is generally not considered to be supplementary. Supplementary angles are angles that equal 180° when they are added together. For example, 70° and 110° are supplementary because they equal 180°.

However, I guess the supplementary angle can be the angle that must be added to another to total 180°. For example, 80° is the supplementary angle of 100°.

Add. 3/10+(−7/20) Enter your answer
Oliga [24]
Make the denominator the same, so multiple 3/10 by 2, which produces 6/20. Take 6/20 and subtract 7/20 because adding a negative number is the same as subtracting a positive number. the Answer is -1/20.
