So,

We are trying to find what PERCENT the sale price is of the sale price.  To do that, we will have to divide the sale price by the original price and simplify.

\frac{26}{40} = \frac{2*13}{2*2*2*5} = \frac{13}{2*2*5} = \frac{13}{20} = \frac{65}{100}

In percent form, it is 65%.

The sale price, $26, is 65% of the original price, $40.

If the glasses were origanum 40, and were on sale for 26,we minus them from eachother to find out how much money was saved. So 40-26= 14, if $14 was saved we put 14 over the original price and times it buy 100 14/40x100= 35% So 35% was saved. 100-35= 65. Therefore 65% of the original price was paid and 35% was saved.

Dream borrowed $500 at an interest rate of 8%. At the end of the loan period, she had to pay back $530. How long was the loan fo
Aliun [14]

Answer:

The loan was for 9 months only

Step-by-step explanation:

In this question, we are concerned with calculating the time taken for a loan om an interest to be paid back

To calculate this, we use the simple interest formula

Mathematically;

I = PRT/100

where P is the principal which is the amount borrowed and that is $500 according to the question

R is the rate which is 8% according to the question

Interest can be calculated by subtracting the principal from the  amount paid back = 530-500 = 30$

We now plug these values into the equation

30 = (500 × 8× T)/100

100 × 30 = 4000T

T = 3000/4000

T = 0.75 (same as 0.75 × 12 months = 9 months)

69) Half-way to the center of a planet of uniform density, your weight compared to that at the surface would be :
mel-nik [20]

Answer:

One- half

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the density is uniform  

Mass of the sphere = [(4/3) π r^3] d

where d is the uniform density.

Mass of the sphere = [(4/3) π d] r^3 = k r^3

where k = [(4/3) π d] is a constant  

Weight = mg = G m M / r^2 = G m [k r^3] /r^2 = G m k r

Using Gauss’ law for gravitation,

Half way to the center of a planet the weight is only due to the inner sphere and the outer sphere does not contribute to his weight,  

Inside his weight is mg’ = (G m k  r) /2   = mg/2  

Answer is one-half.
