R=percentage of discount
$12.95= (1-\frac{r}{100} )p$
so we get
$\frac{12.95}{(1-\frac{r}{100} )}=p$

in chemistry class Andrew has earned scores of 64 69 and 73 on three tests he must maintain an average of 72

olganol [36]

You haven't told me what the question is. But I put the mouse
to my forehead, closed my eyes, took a deep breath, and I could
see it shimmering in my mind's eye. It was quite fuzzy, but I think
the question is

   "What score does Andrew need on the next test
   in order to raise his average to 72% ?"

The whole experience drew an incredible amount of energy
out of me, and the mouse is a total wreck. So we'll just go ahead
and answer that one. I hope it's the correct question.

The average score on 4 tests is

   (1/4) (the sum of all the scores) .

In order for Andrew to have a 72% average on 4 tests,
the sum of the 4 scores must be

   (4) x (72%) = 288% .

Out of that total that he needs, he already has

(64% + 69% + 73%) = 206%

on the first three tests.

So in order to average 72% for all 4 tests,
he'll need to score

   (288% - 206%) = 82%

on the fourth one.

Barney's Book Store currently has 2000 books in stock. There are 3 times as many non-fiction books as fiction books. Determine t

xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

There are 1500 non fiction books and 500 fiction books currently in the store.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Total Number of books = 2000

Let the number of fiction books be 'x'.

Now given:

There are 3 times as many non-fiction books as fiction books.

Number of non fiction books = $3x$

We need to find the number of non-fiction and fiction books.

Solution:

Now we know that;

Total Number of books is equal to sum of the number of non-fiction and fiction books.

framing in equation form we get;

$x+3x=2000\\\\4x=2000$

Dividing both side by 4 we get;

$\frac{4x}{4}=\frac{2000}{4}\\\\x= 500\ books$

Number of fiction books = 500

Number of non fiction books = $3x=3\times 500 =1500$

Hence There are 1500 non fiction books and 500 fiction books currently in the store.
