Cut 5/12 of his lenght

remain 7/12 of his lenght
 
7/12*L - 6/7 *7/12*L=2 1/2 m
7/12*L(1-6/7)=7/12*L(7/7-6/7)=7/12*L*1/7=L/12 =2 1/2

⇒L=2 1/2 m *12=5/2*12=30 m

Original length was 30 m

It takes Gretchen 275 seconds to travel 5500 m in her car. What is her rate of speed in kilometers per hour
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

Walmart has jeans on sale for $42.89 the regular price is $59.99 what’s the savings before tax
kumpel [21]

59.99 - 59.99 x saving rate = 42.89

with saving rate = r%

59.99 - 59.99 x r% = 42.89

so 59,99 ( 1 - r%) = 42.89

1 - r% = 42.89 : 59.99

1 - r% = 0,7150

r% = 1 - 0,7150

r = 28,5%
