Answer:
Total Paperback books = 8x , where x is any positive number
Step-by-step explanation:
Let
The total books are = 13x ; where x is any positive number
As given,
The ratio of hardback books to total books is 5 to 13.
⇒Hardback books = 
× Total books
⇒Hardback books = × 13x = 5x
So, Paperback books = Total books - Hardback books
= 13x - 5x
= 8x
⇒Total Paperback books = 8x
15.6 - 11.7 = 3.9
3.9 ÷ 15.6 = .25
25% of change
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
This question is a bit sloppy. In higher math courses it would not be permitted. I'll give you the general rule that applies to this question -- sort of.
If you have a triangle that hast angles of 100 50 and 30
The largest side will be opposite the 100 degree angle.
The smallest side will be opposite the 30 degree angle.
So for the question, you are intended to say that CD > AB because CD is opposite a 43 degree angle and AB is opposite a 40 degree angle.
So the answer is Since 43 > 40 then CD>AB
Answer:
<h2><em>
$284.29</em></h2>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the original price be x
The discounted price for a clearance sale = 30% of x
If the price tag after discounting = $199.
Using the relationship to find the original price x
Original price - discounted price = Current price tag after discounting
x - 0.3x = 199
0.7x = 199
Divide both sides by 0.7
0.7x/0.7 = 199/0.7
x = $284.29
<em>Hence the suit's original price is approximately $284.29</em>
