Answer:

Total length of the first swing=64 m

Step-by-step explanation:

The total length of all four swings can be expressed as;

Total length of all 4 swings=Length of first swing+length of second swing+length of third swing+length of fourth swing

where;

Total length of all 4 swings=175 m

Length of first swing=x

Length of second swing=75% of length of first swing=(75/100)×x=0.75 x

Length of third swing=75% of length of second swing

Length of third swing=(75/100)×0.75 x=0.5625 x

Length of fourth swing=75% of length of third swing

Length of fourth swing=(75/100)×0.5625 x=0.421875 x

replacing;

Total length of all 4 swings

175=x+0.75 x+0.5625 x+0.421875 x

2.734375 x=175

x=175/2.734375

x=64

Total length of the first swing=x=64 m

In order to make a profit, a retailer sells dresses at 130% of the price she paid for them. A dress in the shop priced at $78.95
Stels [109]

Answer:

$102.635

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the solution, we are looking for, we need to point out what we know.

1. We assume, that the number 78.95 is 100% - because it's the output value of the task.

2. We assume, that x is the value we are looking for.

3. If 78.95 is 100%, we can write it down as 78.95=100%.

4. We know, that x is 130% of the output value, so we can write it down as x=130%.

5. Now we have two simple equations:

1) 78.95=100%

2) x=130%

where left sides of both of them have the same units, and both right sides have the same units, so we can do something like that:

78.95/x=100%/130%

6. Now we just have to solve the simple equation, and we will get the solution we are looking for.

7. Solution for what is 130% of 78.95
