Nick bought a video game for $55, which was 20% off the original price. what was the original price?

Since $55 would be 80% of the original (since it was 20% off) you would divide the $55 by 4 to get 1/5 if the original price ($13.75) and multiply it by 5 to get the original price. $13.75x5=$68.75

$the \ original \ price : x \\ \\ x\cdot 20\% = 55 \\ \\x\cdot \frac{20}{100}=55\\ \\\frac{1}{5}x=55 \ \ / \cdot 5\\ \\x=\$ \ 275 \\ \\ Answer : \ the \ original \ price \ it \ \$ \ \ 275 .$

To compute a student's Grade Point Average (GPA) for a term, the student's grades for each course are weighted by the number of

postnew [5]

Answer:

The student's GPA for that term is 3.07

Step-by-step explanation:

So this is a problem where we need to compute a weighted arithmetic mean.

To compute the weighted arithmetic mean of a set, we need to multiply each value of the set by their respective weight, add them, and then divide by the sum of the weights.

I will write the set in a {V,W} way, where V is the value(the grade) and W is the weight of V.

So your set G will be

G = {{3.8, 5}, {1.8,3}, {3.1,5}, {3.1,5}}.

Multiplying each value by it's respective weigth and then adding, we have:

3.8*5 + 1.8*3 + 3.1*5 + 3.1*5 = 19 + 5.4 + 15.5 + 15.5 = 55.4

The sum of the weigths is 5 + 3 + 5 + 5 = 18

So the student's GPA for that term, rounded to two decimal places, is: 55.4/18 = 3.07

Tell me a fun fact about horses will give BRAINLIEST to whoever tells me something I don’t know (I have been riding for 12 years

Nonamiya [84]

Here are a few fun facts:

A 19th century horse named 'Old Billy' is said to have lived 62 years.

Horses can sleep both lying down and standing up.

Horses can run shortly after birth.

Horses have around 205 bones in their skeleton.

Horses have been domesticated for over 5000 years.

Horses use their ears, eyes and nostrils to express their mood.

Because horse’s eyes are on the side of their head they are capable of seeing nearly 360 degrees at one time.

The fastest recorded sprinting speed of a horse was 88 kph (55 mph). Most gallop at around 44 kph or 27 mph.

The Przewalski’s horse is the only truly wild horse species still in existence. The only wild population is in Mongolia. There are however numerous populations across the world of feral horses e.g. mustangs in North America.

I hope you learned something new!

In a naval engagement, one-third of the fleet was captured, one-sixth was sunk, and two ships were destroyed by fire. One-sevent

Otrada [13]

Answer:

60 ships.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the total number of ships in the naval fleet be represented by x

One-third of the fleet was captured = 1/3x

One-sixth was sunk = 1/6x

Two ships were destroyed by fire = 2

Let surviving ships be represented by y

One-seventh of the surviving ships were lost in a storm after the battle = 1/7y

Finally, the twenty-four remaining ships sailed home

The 24 remaining ships that sailed home =

y - 1/7y = 6/7y of the surviving fleet sailed home.

Hence

24 = 6/7y

24 = 6y/7

24 × 7/ 6

y = 168/6

y = 28

Therefore, total number of ships that survived is 28.

Surviving ships lost in the storm = 1/7y = 1/7 × 28 = 4

Total number of ships in the fleet(x) =

x = 1/3x + 1/6x + 2 + 28

Collect like terms

x - (1/3x + 1/6x) = 30

x - (1/2x) = 30

1/2x = 30

x = 30 ÷ 1/2

x = 30 × 2

x = 60

Therefore, ships that were in the fleet before the engagement were 60 ships.
