Lisa bought a suit on sale for 459. This price was 15% less than the original price. What was the original price?

1 answer:

7 0

If 459 is 15% less than the original, this means the original was 15% more than 459.

So we have to find 15% more of 459, and to do this, we have to:

Add 100 + 15 = 115
115/100 = 1.15
1.15 x 459 = 527.85

Hope this answers your question

The radius of a cylindrical water tank is 4.5 ft, and its height is 8 ft. What is the volume of the tank?

Brums [2.3K]

The answer is 509 ft^3

Formula:
V = πr^2h
V = 3.14 * 4.5^2 * 8
V = 3.14 * 20.25 * 8
V = 508.68 ft^3

508.68 rounded to the nearest whole number is 509

So the volume of the cylinder is 509 ft^3

A road rises 50 feet over a horizontal distance of 600 feet. What is the slope of the road?

Hatshy [7]

Answer:

1/12 (or 0.833)

Step-by-step explanation:

Recall that the definition of "slope" is the change in vertical distance divided by the change in the horizontal distance. (aka. rise ÷ run)

it is given that rise = 50 feet and the horizontal distance (i.,e "run") = 600feet

hence slope = rise / run = 50 / 600 = 1/12 (or 0.833)
