This is just simple division:
36 / 0.75 =
3600 / 75 =
720 / 15 =
144 / 3 =
48 / 1 =
48
You have to sell 48 newspapers to by Soccer Cleats.
we'll proceed along the same lines as the previous one.
the cost of the boots is 90.10 and that includes 6.25% sales tax, so if "x" is the 100%, then 90.10 is really the 106.25%, because is including the extra 6.25%.
so if that's the cost of each boot, without tax, then the markup will be 88.8 - 50.88 = 37.92.
if the 100% is 88.8, how much is 37.92 off of it in percentage?
Answer:
B) 77.5 square feet
Step-by-step explanation:
cut shape into rectangle and triangle
area of rectangle = x*y
area of rectangle = 5*13
area of rectangle = 65
area of triangle = (z-x)*(y-w)/2
area of triangle = 5*3/2
area of triangle = 7.5
Total area = 65 + 7.5
Total area = 77.5, B)
Answer:
You know that XZ is 15 and the whole perimeter of the triangle is 50. WZ is going to be the same length as WX due to the lines saying that they are equal.
Your first step is to take 50-15=35, we did this because we already know the length of one side and can take that off from the whole.
The next step is to divide 35 by 2, because both sides are going to be the same length.
35/2=17.5
You final answer would be 17.5
Hope this helps ;)
