Answer:
$52
Step-by-step explanation:
To find an original price you must find how much of a percent was left before the discount.
100% - 15% = 85%
You then take this percentage a DIVIDE it by the new price.
$44.20/85% = $52 is the original price of the jeans.
Answer:
First city: $5,500
Second city: $5,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's define x as the hotel price in the first city and y the hotel price in the second city. We can start with this equation:
y = x - 500 (The hotel before tax in the 2nd city was $500 lower than in the 1st.)
Then we can say
0.065x + 0.045y = 582.50 (the sum of the tax amounts were $582.50)
We place the value of y from the first equation in the second equation:
0.065x + 0.045 (x - 500) = 582.50
0.065x + 0.045x - 22.50 = 582.50 (simplifying and adding 22.5 on each side)...
0.11x = 605
x = 5,500
The cost of the first hotel was $5,500
Thus, the cost of the second hotel was $5,000 (x - 500)
Answer:
a) 83%
b) 0.892
Step-by-step explanation:
percentage that attends class on friday = 74%
percentage that pass because they attend class on friday = 88%
percentage that pass but did not go to school on friday = 20%
a) percentage of students expected to pass the course
= (74% x 88%) +(88% x 20%)
= 0.6512 + 0.176
= 0.8272
= 83%
b) If a person passes the course, what is the probability that he/she attended classes on Fridays
= 74% divided by 83%
= 0.892
Answer:
Let the width of the Rectangle be x inches
Then, length is (3x-5) inches
Perimeter of the Rectangle= 46 inches (given)
According to the above problem,
Equation :---- Perimeter=2(length+breadth)
<u>2{(3x-5)+x}=46</u>
2(4x-5)=46
(4x-5)=46/2=23
4x=(23+5)=28
x=28/4
<u>x=7</u>
So, length of the Rectangle is {(3×7)-5}=16 inches
and width is= 7 inches
Answer:
0
Step-by-step explanation:
The only value that would make sense is if at least one of the variables (A , B , C , D) is 0 (if not all of them). When multiplied, the answer will still be 0, thereby making the equation true.
