Given that after a 15% price reduction, a boat sold for $15,200. Now we have to find the boats price before the reduction.
Let the boats price before the reduction = x
Reduction = 15% of original price = 15% of x = 0.15x
Then selling price will be difference of original price and reduction
Selling price = Origina price - Reduction
15200 = x - 0.15x
15200 = 0.85x

17882.3529412=x
Hence origina price before reduction is approx $17882.35
Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:
-Amy walks a distance of 7/8 mile
-Tom walks a distance of 4/8 mile.
#We immediately notice that Amy has walked a longer distance than Tom.
We subtract Tom's distance from Amy's to find how much further Amy walked;

Hence, Amy has walked 3/8 miles further than Tom has.
Answer:
The exact value of cot(∅) is 2.5
Step-by-step explanation:
The picture of the question in the attached figure
we know that
An isosceles triangle has two equal sides and two equal interior angles
In his problem


In the right triangle ABD
---> adjacent side angle ∅ divided by the opposite side angle ∅
we have
The base of the isosceles triangle is five times the height
so



substitute

The problem is to write 3/7 as the sum of equal parts, that is a sum of fractions:
1/7 + 1/7 + 1/7 = 3/7
note that we are only adding the numerator, the upper part.
