Ellen saved $2000 and she spent 10% of it to buy a bike. Kim saved 8% more than that of Ellen's left savings. If Lisa saved 60%

enyata [817]

Answer: Lis saved $1166.4 .

Step-by-step explanation:

Given , Ellen saved $2000 and she spent 10% of it to buy a bike.

Then, Ellen's left saving = saved amount - 10% of (saved amount)

= $2000 - 0.10 x $2000 [We convert perecntage to decimal by diving it by 100]

= $2000 - $200

= $1800

So, Ellen's left saving= $1800

Also, Kim saved 8% more than that of Ellen's left savings.

Kim's Saving = Ellen's left saving + 8% of (Ellen's left saving)

= $1800 + (0.08) x ($1800) [We convert perecntage to decimal by diving it by 100]

= $1800 + $144

i.e. Kim's Saving= $1944

If Lisa saved 60% as much as Kim, then Lisa's saving = 60% of (Kim's Saving)

= (0.60) x ($1944) [We convert perecntage to decimal by diving it by 100]

i.e. Lisa's saving = $1166.4

Answer:

y = 9.54

and, x = 0.08

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

x - 2y = -19 .......................(1)

3x + 5y = 48 ...............(2)

Based on the above information

Multiply by 3 in equation 1

So,

3x - 6y = -57

3x + 5y = 48

- - -

-11y = -105

y = 9.54

So, the x would be

x - 2(9.54) = -19

x - 19.08 = -19

x = -19 + 19.08

x = 0.08

You have $50 in your savings account.Each week you deposit $5 in your account. Write an expression that models the situation.

Lemur [1.5K]

50+30y

It is 30y because there are 7 days in a week and each week you deposit $5 so 5*7 is 30.

A seamstress is paid $9.55 for every pair of pants made. how many pants would have to be made to receive $525.00 a week?

Svetlanka [38]

Let the number of pants have to be made be x.

So,

9.55 * x = 525.00

x = $\frac{525}{9.55}$ ≈ 54.97

Thus, the number of pants have to be made are 54.
