Answer:
19 seconds.
Step-by-step explanation:
Given that the clock was exactly on time at 7am, and at 1pm the clock was 228 seconds late, to determine, at that rate, how slow was the clock half an hour, the following calculation must be performed:
1 PM = 13:00
13 - 7 = 6
228/6 = 38
38/2 = 19
Thus, every half hour the clock is delayed 19 seconds.
Answer:
$12
Step-by-step explanation:
If you're taking off 25% of the regular cost, "taking off" means subtracting. So if we subtract 25% OF 16, the word "of" means to multiply here. So our expression then becomes:
16 - .25(16)
16 - 4 = 12
So the CD will sell for $12.
