I'll assume you're asking for the initial price

Let's use x to represent it
The initial price plus 40 percent of that is $294

Let's write that out mathematically

x + (40/100)x = 294
x + 0.4x = 294
1.4x = 294
x = 210

The initial price is $210

Courtney reads about 110 words per minute she procrastinated and now has less then a week to finish her reading assignment if th
ss7ja [257]

Multiply the amount of pages by the amount of words per page:


820 \times 350 = 287000


There are about 287000 words remaining.


Courtney can read at a rate of 110 words per minute. Since we want to find the amount of hours she needs to finish the book, multiply this rate by 60 to convert into an hour:


110 \times 60 = 6600


Courtney reads at a rate of 6600 words per hour.


Divide the amount of words in the book by Courtney's reading speed in hours:


287000 \div 6600 = \boxed{43.48}


Courtney will need to set aside 43.48 hours to complete her assignment.

Darcy, Jason, and Maria share 268 dollars. Jason has 20 dollars more than Darcy and Maria has twice as much as Jason. How much m
frosja888 [35]

Answer:

The amount of money that Darcy and Jason have together is $124

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> amount of money that Darcy has

y -----> amount of money that Jason has

z ----> amount of money that Maria has

we know that

x+y+z=268 ------> equation A

y=x+20 -----> x=y-20 -----> equation B

z=2y -----> equation C

substitute equation B and equation C in equation A and solve for y

(y-20)+y+2y=268

4y-20=268

4y=268+20

4y=288

y=72

Find the value of x

x=y-20 -----> x=72-20=52

so

The amount of money that Darcy has is $52

The amount of money that Jason has is $72

therefore

$52+$72=$124

The amount of money that Darcy and Jason have together is $124

The ratio of the lengths of the two legs of a right triangle is 3:4
Snowcat [4.5K]

<em>Greetings from Brasil... </em>

Check Attachment!!!

According to the statement of the question, we have:

a/b = 3/4

<em>Note that according to the attached figure, </em><em>b > a</em><em>, then the correct proportion will be </em><em>a</em><em> to </em><em>3</em><em>, as well as </em><em>b</em><em> to </em><em>4</em><em>, because </em><em>b > a</em><em> and </em><em>4 > 3</em>

Isolating a and b:

a = 3b/4

b = 4a/3

From Pythagoras:

h² = a² + b² - as a = 3b/4 and b = 4a/3, so

<h3>b = 4h/5</h3><h3>a = 6h/5</h3>

For Area:

A = b.a/2

as b = 4h/5 and a = 6h/5, so

<h3>A = 12h/25</h3>
