I have 200 coins to put into 4 bags I put the coins into each bag so that each bag has 2 mote coins than the one before How many

Allushta [10]

First bag has 47 coins and second bag has 49 coins and third bag has 51 coins and fourth bag has 53 coins

Solution:

Given that,

Total number of coins = 200

Number of bags = 4

I put the coins into each bag so that each bag has 2 more coins than the one before

Therefore,

Each bag has 2 more coins than the one before. Based on this we can say,

Let "x" be the number of coins put in first bag

Then, x + 2 is the number of coins put in second bag

Then, x + 4 is the number of coins put in third bag

Then, x + 6 is the number of coins put in fourth bag

We know that,

Total number of coins = 200

$x + x + 2 + x + 4 + x + 6 = 200\\\\4x + 12 = 200\\\\4x = 200-12\\\\4x = 188\\\\x = 47$

Thus,

Coins put in first bag = x = 47

Coins put in second bag = x + 2 = 47 + 2 = 49

Coins put in third bag = x + 4 = 47 + 4 = 51

Coins put in fourth bag = x + 6 = 47 + 6 = 53

Thus number of coins in each bag are found

7) David bought a computer that was 20% off the regular price of $1080. If an 8% sales tax was added to the cost of the computer

Aneli [31]

Hello there! I can help you!

7. Okay. So the computer was originally $1,080, and the discount is 20%, but David would still have to pay 80% of the original price. To find the sale price, let's multiply. 1,080 * 80% (0.8) is 864. The sale price of the compuet is $864, but now we must add the sales tax to find the total price. We will multiply by 108%, because 100% (representing the price + 8% is 108%, and doing this will get us stright to the total price. 864 * 108% (1.08) is 933.12. There. David paid a total price of $933.12 for the computer.

8. Okay. So we are looking for the amount of discount for the sweater Suzanne bought. First off, let's subtract the prices to find the difference. 40 - 25 is 15. Now, let's divide that by 40 (the original price) to find the discount. 15/40 is 0.375. Or 37.5% when converted into a percentage. There. Suzanne received a 37.5% discount on the sweater when she bought it.

9. So the car was bought for x dollars. 0.88 represents 88%, so the value of the car is 88% of the previous year. An expression that is a way to describe the change in car value is x * (100 - 0.12)^t, because you car loses 12% of the remaining value each year, which leaves 88% of it remaining, and having the t as the exponent represents the number of years. That expression helps find the value of the car currently and can help you compare the values.
