1)The price of a pair of boot was reduced from $80 to $60. By what percentage
Elan Coil [88]

Answer:

1) 25%

2) $17.54

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The boots were reduced from $80 to $60, therefore the total amount they were reduced by in terms of money is $20. To find out what percentage $20 is of $80, you divide.

20/80 = 0.25

0.25 = 25 % (to change a decimal to a percentage, you multiply by 100)

2) 20% = 0.20 (to change a percentage to a decimal, you divide by 100)

To find 20% of $87.70, multiply 0.20 by 87.70.

87.70 x 0.20 = 17.54

A box contains 146 marbles which are either red or blue. there are 28 more blue marbles than red marbles. how many blue marbles
rusak2 [61]
R + b = 146.  Supposing that b=r+28, 

r + (r+28) = 146, or 2r + 28 = 146.

Simplifying:  2r = 118.  Then r = 59, and b = r+28 = 59+28 = 87 blue marbles

Match the information on the left with the appropriate equation on the right.
zaharov [31]

Answer:

See attachment below

Step-by-step explanation:

For the first option, we are given m = - 2 / 3, b = 3. This is likely in the point - slope form y = mx + b, where m = slope and b = y - intercept. Thus, the equation of the line in point - slope form given this information, should be y = - 2 / 3x + 3. It seems as if none of the following equations match this form, so let us interchange the equation a bit,

y = - 2 / 3x + 3,

y + 2 / 3x = 3,

2x + 3y = 9 - Option C

_______________________________________________________

Next we are given m = - 3 / 2, and that this line passes through the point ( 4, - 1 ). Substitute m as - 3 / 2, x as 4, y as - 1, knowing point ( 4, - 1 ), into the form y = mx + b - solving for b.

- 1 = ( - 3 / 2 )( 4 ) + b,

b = 5,

Thus the equation in point - slope form should be y = - 3 / 2x + 5. None of the choices match this, so let us again alter the equation,

y = - 3 / 2x + 5,

2y = - 3x + 10,

- 2y = 3x - 10 - Option A

_______________________________________________________

( 6, 3 ) and ( 3, 1 ) is given to lie on this line. The slope of the line should be as follows,

Slope = 3 - 1 / 6 - 3 = 2 / 3

Now let us determine the y - intercept ( b ) by substitute one of the points, say ( 6, 3 ). In this case x = 6, and y = 3,

3 = ( 2 / 3 )( 6 ) + b,

b = - 1,

y = 2 / 3x - 1 = Option D
