-16 is the answer to this
Answer:
$70 is the regular price of the shirt.
Step-by-step explanation:
One way in which to find the regular price here is to write the equation
0.60s = $42. A 40% discount is reflected in 100% - 40%, or 1.00 - 0.40, which comes out to 0.60.
If 0.60s = $42, then the regular price of the shirt is
s = ($42)/0.60 = $70
The length of the enlarged copy in feet is 2.7 feet.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
- The painting is 4 inches wide and 2 feet long.
- convert inches into feet (1 inch=0.083 foot). Therefore, 4 inches=0.3 feet
- The enlarged copy is 1 foot wide and 'x' feet long.
The width is enlarged from 0.3 to 1 which is increased by 0.7 feet.
∴ The length should also be increased by 0.7 feet = 2+0.7 = 2.7 feet
