This can be done easily in a few ways. One, you could do equivelent fractions as this. 16 percent is the same as 16 over 100, or, 16/100, 100 being the total with an = sign with X over 550, or, X/550. you can multiply 16 by 500 and divide by 100 to get $88. Or you could do it my way, (prefered way). take the $550, divide it by 100, then multiply by 16 and get $88. either way you do this, you take away the $88 from $550 and get the sale price of [Drumroll please...]
<em><u>462 Dollars!</u></em>

A teacher is cutting pieces of tape for the marshmallow challenge.The roll of tape is 16.8 meters long and each piece measures 1
Zanzabum

Given:

Total length of tape in roll = 16.8 meters

Length of each piece = 1.125 meters

Number of pieces = 8

To find:

The remaining tape.

Solution:

We have,

Length of 1 piece = 1.125 meters

Length of 8 piece = 8 × 1.125 meters

                              = 9 meters

Total length of tape in roll = 16.8 meters

Remaining tape = Total length of tape in roll - Length of 8 piece

                           = 16.8 - 9 meters

                           = 7.8 meters

Therefore, the length of remaining tape is 7.8 meters.

a sequence of numbers is given by 25,30,35..............,300. find the number of terms in the sequence​
Lorico [155]

Answer:

56

Step-by-step explanation:

clearly, the sequence is built by adding 5 for every new term.

so, an = an-1 + 5

a1 = 25 (the starting value)

a2 = a1 + 5 = 25 + 5 = 30

a3 = a2 + 5 = a1 + 5 + 5 = a1 + 2×5 = 25 + 10 = 35

...

an = an-1 + 5 = a1 + (n-1)×5

now, we know, the last term is 300.

when we determine for which n we get an = 300, we know that n is the number of terms in the sequence.

so,

300 = a1 + (n-1)×5 = 25 + 5n - 5 = 20 + 5n

280 = 5n

n = 56

a56 = 300

so, we have 56 terms in this sequence
