If the price of an object dropped 75% down to $85.99 what was the original price?
Serggg [28]
If the price of an object drastically dropped 75%, then the dropped price is equal to 25% of the original price. That means that to find the original price, we have to multiply by the reciprocal of 25% (4). The original price would be $85.99 * 4 which is $343.96.

A book sold 31,700 copies in its first month of release. Suppose this represents 8.8% of the number of copies sold to date. How
elena-14-01-66 [18.8K]

For this case we propose a rule of three:

31700 ------------> 8.8%

x ----------------------> 100%

Where "x" represents the number of copies sold to date.

x = \frac {100 * 31700} {8.8}\\x = \frac {3170000} {8.8}\\x = 360,227.273

Thus, to date 360,227 copies of the book have been sold.

ANswer:

To date, 360,227 copies of the book have been sold.

PLEASE HELP ME EXPLAIN THE ANSWER
tigry1 [53]

Answer:

  See the attachment

Step-by-step explanation:

The inequalities resolve to ...

  x ≥ 1 or x ≤ -3

You have chosen the correct placement of the lines on the number line. The "or equal to" symbol (≥ or ≤) means the dots at -3 and +1 are filled in, indicating those numbers are part of the solution.

If the ">" or "<" symbol is used in the inequality, the dot is left open, as in the answer you selected. The open dot indicates that value is not part of the solution set.
