Answer:

$787.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the original price of the bicycle be $x.

If the original price was first discounted by 50% and then discounted an additional 10%, the total percentage discount will be 60%.

Using the formula

S = p(1-r) where

S is the sales price of the bicycle

p is the original price of the bicycle

r is the percentage discount

Given sales price = $315

Total percentage discount = 60% = 0.6

Substituting this in the formula above we have:

$315 = p(1-0.6)

$315 = 0.4p

P = $315/0.4

P = $787.5

The original price of the bicycle = $787.5

This means that the bicycle was discounted in total by 60%, so $315 is 40% of the original price to get 40% to 100% youd multiply it by 2.5 so so the same to the price 315 x 2.5= 787.5

47/7 as a mixed number in siplest form
puteri [66]
For this fraction, you would have to see how many times 7 goes into 47. So, 6 times as 7 times 6 is 42. Subtract 42 from 47, and this would be your remainder:

6\frac{5}{7}

Each day that a library book is kept past its due date, a $0.30 fee is charged at midnight. Which ordered pair is
mihalych1998 [28]
Let's say the number of days library book is late is X, and the total fee is Y.

Liability charges $0.30 dollars as a fee for being 1 day late,

For being 1 day late, fee charge is: 1* $0.30
So, for X days the charge would be: X*$0.30.

Total charge for being X days late is Y, Which means: Y= 0.30 * X.

Now We would have to check all the viable solutions in the answer to see if they satisfy the equation Y= 0.30 * X

Option one(-3, -0.9) and two (-2.5, -0.75) Would not be a viable solution because the value of number of days can not be negative and in option one and two, value of days -3 and -2.5 is negative.

Option three(4.5, 1.35) can not be correct because library charges fee for a full day so the number for days would be a whole number. Library would not charge for 4.5 days, they would either charge of 4 days or 5 days because 4.5 is not an whole number.


Option four(8, 2.40) is the correct answer because it satisfies our equation;

Y= 0.30 * X

2.40= 0.30 * 8

2.40 = 2.40.


Fourth option (8, 2.40) is the only viable solution to this question.
