$300 - $140 = $160

Now we do $160 divided by $40

That means she bought 4 dresses for $40 dollars each

Hi, can you please help me answer this direct proportion question?

Oksanka [162]

Answer:

X = 100

Step-by-step explanation:

In proportion questions, they want you to multiply one of the sides by a variable, (i usually represent it with K) and then change the proportion sign to an equal.
This is because proportional means they have a ratio between them, with one side increasing by "k" for each increase in the other side.

Multiply the left by k, so $y = \frac{k}{\sqrt{x} }$
we know that y= 5, for x = 36, so sub this in the equation
$5 = \frac{k}{\sqrt{36} }$
simplify $5 = \frac{k}{6 }$
re-arrange for k, <u>k = 5*6 = 30</u>
now we know k, we can create the real equation, $y = \frac{30}{\sqrt{x} }$
sub in 3 as y
$3 = \frac{30}{\sqrt{x} }$
<u>x = 100</u>

Ed's new car has a value of $23,500, but it is expected to depreciate at a rate of 7.5% per year. What is the value of Ed's car

Kazeer [188]

Answer:

$13,616

Step-by-step explanation:

For each year we will have to constantly decrease it by 7.5%

23,500 - 7.5%

= 21,737.5

= 21,737.5 - 7.5%

= 20,107.1875

= 20,107.1875 - 7.5%

= 18599.1484375

= 18599.1484375 - 7.5%

= 17204.2123047

= 17204.2123047 - 7.5%

= 15913.8963818

= 15913.8963818 - 7.5%

= 14720.3541532

= 14720.3541532 - 7.5%

= 13616.3275917

Definitively we will get the answer $13,616
