Sally went to the clearance rack at a department store and found a shirt she wanted to buy. The shirt was $36.00 and is on sale

jeka57 [31]

Answer:

33.34%.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

The actual price of the shirt = $36

Price on sale = $24

We need to find the percent of the decrease. The formula for the percentage is given by :

$\%=\dfrac{|\text{actual value-estimated value}|}{\text{actual value}}\times 100$

Putting all the values,

$\%=\dfrac{24-36}{36}\times 100\\\\=33.34\%$

So, the percentage decrease in the price of the shirt is 33.34%.

The length of a rectangle is 5 yd longer than its width.

romanna [79]

Answer:

w = 13yd, l = 18yd

Step-by-step explanation:

let x be width, so x+5 = length

Perimeter is sum of all 4 sides, and since opposite sides equal in rectangle,

P = 2(l+w)

= 2(x+5 +x)

= 4x + 10

Since perimeter is give as 62yd, equation is

4x + 10 = 62

4x = 52

x = 13
