It seems most likely that ...
... Samantha will save $37.50 because she must first find the 25% sale price before taking the extra 50% reduction
_____
In the real world, it seems probable that Samantha will be offered the choice of using the coupon <em>or</em> the sale discount. If she chooses tht 50% coupon, her savings will be $30. If she chooses the marked sale discount, her savings will be $15.
The scenario above assumes she gets 50% off the sale price of $45, so saves $15+22.50 = $37.50 off the original price.
Answer:
35
Step-by-step explanation:
Area is multiplication! Volume is adding so just add!
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
we know that
The simple interest formula is equal to
where
I is the Final Interest Value
P is the amount of money borrowed
r is the rate of interest
t is Number of Time Periods
in this problem we have
substitute in the formula above
A. We are given that each person weighs 150 lb, each gear
per person weighs 10 lb, and a total of 200 pounds of gear for the boat itself.
Since each person only carries one gear, therefore total
weight per person in 160 lb (weight of person + weight of gear).
So let us say that x is the number of persons, the
inequality equation is:
160 x + 200 ≤ 1200
B. There are three groups that wish to rent the boat.
> Solve the inequality equation when x = 4
160 (4) + 200 ≤ 1200
840 ≤ 1200 (TRUE)
> Solve the inequality equation when x = 5
160 (5) + 200 ≤ 1200
1000 ≤ 1200 (TRUE)
> Solve the inequality equation when x = 8
160 (8) + 200 ≤ 1200
1480 ≤ 1200 (FALSE)
So only the 4 people group and 5 people group can safely
run the boat.
C. Find the maximum number of people that may safely use
the boat, solve for x:
160 x + 200 ≤ 1200
160 x ≤ 1000
x ≤ 6.25
Therefore the maximum number of people that can safely
use the boat is 6 people.
