A jacket originally cost $30.75. It went on sale for 20% off the original price. What was the sale price of the jacket?

1 answer:

6 0

We have to calculate the 20% of $30.75
The 20% of $30.75=(20/100)*$30.75=(20*$30.75)/100=$6.15

The sale price of the jacket was $6.15.

Answer:

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{40 laps}}{\text{ hour}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Please consider the complete question.

Sebastian swan laps every day in the community swimming pool. He swam 45 minutes each day, 5 days each week, for 12 weeks. In that time, he swam 1800 laps. What was his average rate in laps per hour?

Let us convert time taken into hours as:

$\text{Days}=5\times 12=60$

$\text{Minutes}=60\times 45$

1 hour = 60 minutes. To convert minutes into hours, we will divide total minutes by 60.

$\text{Hours}=\frac{60\times 45}{60}=45$

Now, we will divide 1800 by 45 to find average rate in laps per hour as:

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{1800 laps}}{\text{45 hours}}$

$\text{Average rate}=\frac{\text{40 laps}}{\text{ hour}}$

Therefore, Sebastian's average rate is 40 laps per hour.

Can you please help me find the area? Thank you. :)))

The figure shown in the picture is a rectangular shape that is missing a triangular piece. To determine the area of the figure you have to determine the area of the rectangle and the area of the triangular piece, then you have to subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the rectangle.

The rectangular shape has a width of 12 inches and a length of 20 inches. The area of the rectangle is equal to the multiplication of the width (w) and the length (l), following the formula:

$A=w\cdot l$

For our rectangle w=12 in and l=20 in, the area is:

$\begin{gathered} A_{\text{rectangle}}=12\cdot20 \\ A_{\text{rectangle}}=240in^2 \end{gathered}$

The triangular piece has a height of 6in and its base has a length unknown. Before calculating the area of the triangle, you have to determine the length of the base, which I marked with an "x" in the sketch above.

The length of the rectangle is 20 inches, the triangular piece divides this length into three segments, two of which measure 8 inches and the third one is of unknown length.

You can determine the value of x as follows:

$\begin{gathered} 20=8+8+x \\ 20=16+x \\ 20-16=x \\ 4=x \end{gathered}$

x=4 in → this means that the base of the triangle is 4in long.

The area of the triangle is equal to half the product of the base by the height, following the formula:

$A=\frac{b\cdot h}{2}$

For our triangle, the base is b=4in and the height is h=6in, then the area is:

$\begin{gathered} A_{\text{triangle}}=\frac{4\cdot6}{2} \\ A_{\text{triangle}}=\frac{24}{2} \\ A_{\text{triangle}}=12in^2 \end{gathered}$

Finally, to determine the area of the shape you have to subtract the area of the triangle from the area of the rectangle:

$\begin{gathered} A_{\text{total}}=A_{\text{rectangle}}-A_{\text{triangle}} \\ A_{\text{total}}=240-12 \\ A_{\text{total}}=228in^2 \end{gathered}$

The area of the figure is 228in²

What is 24% as a growth and decay factor

Lisa [10]

Answer:

When given a percentage of growth or decay, determined the growth/decay factor by adding or subtracting the percent, as a decimal, from 1. In general if r represents the growth or decay factor as a decimal then: b = 1 - r Decay Factor. b = 1 + r Growth Factor. A decay of 20% is a decay factor of 1 - 0.20 = 0.
