The price of a pair of jeans is $25. If there is a 15% discount, what is the sale price of the jeans?

dusya [7]

Answer:

$29.41

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the discount price is 25 and the original is unknown so call it x. The sale is 15% off and that means that the jeans are 85% of what they used to be since 100-15 is 85. Then you plug it into a formula of 25/x = 85/100 then you cross multiply to get 2500=85x and when you solve for x and round you get $29.41

The total number of people at a football game was 5600. Field-side tickets were 40 dollars and end-zone tickets were 20 dollars.

rewona [7]

Answer:

1100 field-side tickets and 4500 end-zone tickets.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent number of field side tickets and y represent number of end-zone tickets.

We have been given that the total number of people at a football game was 5600. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$x+y=5600...(1)$

$y=5600-x...(1)$

We are also told that Field-side tickets were 40 dollars and end-zone tickets were 20 dollars.

Cost of x field side tickets would be $40x$ and cost of y end-zone tickets would be $20y$ .

The total amount of money received for the tickets was $134000. We can represent this information in an equation as:

$40x+20y=134000...(2)$

Upon substituting equation (1) in equation (2), we will get:

$40x+20(5600-x)=134000$

$40x+112000-20x=134000$

$20x+112000=134000$

$20x+112000-112000=134000-112000$

$20x=22000$

$\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{22000}{20}$

$x=1100$

Therefore, 1100 field side tickets were sold.

Upon substituting $x=1100$ in equation (1), we will get:

$y=5600-1100$

$y=4500$

Therefore, 4500 end-zone tickets were sold.

Two ships leave the same port in different directions, forming a 120° angle between them. One ship travels 70 mi. and the other

kondaur [170]

Answer : Distance between the ships to the nearest miles = 106.03 ≈ 106 mi.

Explanation :

Since we have shown in the figure below :

a=70 mi.

b=52 mi.

c=x mi.

$\text{Since two ships leaves the same port in different directions forming a }120\textdegree\text{angle between them.}$

So, we use the cosine rule , which states that

$c^2=a^2+b^2-2ab.cosC\\\\x^2=70^2+52^2-2\times 70\times 52\times cos(120\textdegree)\\\\x^2=4900+2704-7280\times (-0.5)\\\\x^2=7604+3640\\\\x^2=11244\\\\x=\sqrt{11244}\\\\x=106.03$

So, c = x= 106.03 mi.

Hence, distance between the ships to the nearest miles = 106.03 ≈ 106 mi.
