Answer:£43.2

Step-by-step explanation:

We minus 15 from 100 to get the percentage represented by 36.72

We are using 100 because it represents the total which is unknown

We cross multiple and get our answer

36.72=85%

X =100%

100×36.72÷85=43.2

We can use the is/of=p/100 method for this problem. Since it's 15% off, this would mean that the bill is 85% of what it was initially. Plug the values into the is/of=p/100 formula.

36.72/x = 85/100

Solve  for x.

x=36.72/0.85

x=43.2

So, the bill was $43.20 before applying the voucher discount of 15% off.

IVedle Question Help Miranda's financial aid stipulates that her tuition not exceed $1500. If her college charges a $45 registra
forsale [732]

Answer:

Therefore, Miranda can register for at most 3 courses.

Explanation:

If x is the number of courses in which Miranda register, the total cost for her tuition will be:

45 + 450x

Because there is a fixed cost of $45 and a cost per course of $450.

Then, this cost should be less than or equal to $1500, so we can write the following inequality:

45 + 450x ≤ 1500

Now, we can solve the inequality for x. Subtract 45 from both sides:

45 + 450x - 45 ≤ 1500 - 45

450x ≤ 1455

Divide both sides by 450:

450x/450 ≤ 1455/450

x ≤ 3.23

Therefore, Miranda can register for at most 3 courses.
