Answer:

$43.20

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the original purchase price, write a proportion and solve. A proportion is an equation where two ratios are set equal.

If the discount if 15% then you pay 85%.

\frac{36.72}{y}= \frac{85}{100}

To solve for y, cross multiply the numerator and denominator of each fraction.

36.72(100) = 85y

3672= 85y

43.2 = y

A road bike has a wheel diameter of 622 mm. What is the circumference of the wheel? Use 3.14
Vlad1618 [11]

The formula for finding the circumference of a circle is c=\pi *d (where d is the diameter). So, simply plugging in 622 mm for <em>d </em>and 3.14 for pi, we find that c = 622 * 3.14 = 1953.08 mm.
