Alright, lets get started.

Suppose women had to pay x $ at regular price.

As we know, the sale is 1/4 off.

It means she saves x * 1/4 = x/4

So, women need to pay = regular price - what she saves

women need to pay = x - x/4 = 3 x / 4 that is equal to 42 (given in question)

3x / 4 = 42

Multiplying 4 in both sides.

3x / 4 * 4 = 42 * 4

3 x = 168

Dividing 3 in both sides

3 x / 3 = 168/ 3

x = 56

she have had to pay 56 $ at the regular price : Answer

Hope it will help :)

An airplane is at 32,000 ft above sea level and descends at an average rate of 1,000 ft per minute. How many minutes will it tak
slavikrds [6]
29 minutes-  at a rate of 1,000 feet a minute, it would take 32 minutes to reach sea level (32,000/1000=32)but if you subtract 3000 from 32000 to remain 3000 feet above sea level, you have 29000 feet to descend which will take 29 minutes

What is 9.286 as a mixed number
marshall27 [118]
9.286 

[To change to mixed number, count the number of digits after the decimal point. There are 3 digits, so the denominator will be 1000]

9.286 = 9 \frac{286}{1000}

Then we simplify the fraction
(286 ÷ 2)/(1000÷2) = 143/500

Therefore,
9.286 = 9 \frac{286}{1000}
9.286 = 9 \frac{143}{500}

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To copy an angle we follow the following steps,

1). Draw a working line with the help of a straightedge.

2). Now we put a point S as the vertex of the angle.

3). Construct an arc with a radius 'r' (any length ) from vertex S which intersects the working line say at V.

4). With the same radius we draw an arc from point E which intersects the line ED and EF at G and H respectively.

5). Mark an arc from point G which intersects line EF at I.

6). Measure the distance between points G and I with compass and mark an arc from point V which intersects the previous arc say at U.

7). Now join the points S and U.

Hence we copy any angle.
