Ok so first off understand what they are saying. there is a movie on sale for $22.10 which is 15 percent of the original price. So now what you do is set up the problem.

22.10 is = 15% of the price

x = 100% of the price (original price)

<u> 15  </u> = <u>22.10
</u>100        x
<u>
</u>now just use cross multiplication.

15x = 22.10 · 100

solve for x.

<u>15x</u> = <u>2210</u>
<u /> 15       15

x = 147.33333333 since the 3's go on forever you can simply put it into a fraction 

x = 147  <u>3
</u>              9
<u>
</u>whenever there is a repeating number you can put it into a fraction but putting the repeating number over a 9

Answer:

$147.33

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this problem we just have to do a quick reasoning, the problem states that the movies are being sold for the 15% of their original price, so 22.10 represents the 15% of the original price, with this we can just do a rule of thirds to be able to calculate how much is the 100%.

\frac{15}{100}= \frac{22.1}{x}

Now if we just clear the x we can solve the equation for X.

x=\frac{(22.10)(100)}{15}

x=\frac{2210}{15} \\x=147.33

So the original price would be 147.33

<u>Answer</u>

√7 × √5

√3 × √2


<u>Explanation</u>

√9*√16   = 3 × 4

              = 12

             = 12/1      ⇒ It is a rational answer.

√7*√5  = √(7×5)

            = √35

           = 5.916079783.... ⇒ Irrational

√3*√2  = √(3×2)

           = √6

            = 2.449489743...  ⇒  Irrational

4√2*√2 = 4 × √(2×2)

              = 4 × √4

              = 4 × 2

              = 8

              = 8/1   ⇒  It is rational

The expressions that would give irrational answers are: √7*√5  and√3*√2

Matt wants to buy a television. If he
VladimirAG [237]

Answer:

The cost of the television is \$294

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

x -----> the cost of the television in dollars

we know that

The cost of the television represent 100%

<em>If Matt  pays cash</em>

then

100\%-7\%=93\%=93/100=0.93

so

The cost is 0.93x

<em>If Matt pays with a loan</em>

then

100\%+10\%=110\%=110/100=1.1

so

The cost is 1.1x

The difference  between the two methods is

1.1x-0.93x=0.17x

Remember that

The difference  between the two methods is $49.98

so

0.17x=49.98

Solve for x

x=\$294
