Answer:

$30

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the price of sweatshirt be $x.

Discount percentage = 30%

Discount in dollars = 30% of $x

Discount in dollars = 30/100 of $x = $ 30x/100

Given that discount in $ is 9

thus

30x/100 = 9

x = 9*100/30 = 30

Thus, the original price is $30

6x2 is not 66, you would need to multiply by 11 instead of 2 because 6x11 is 66 thus getting the correct answer!!!! Hope this helps.

A scale drawing of a building has the scale 0.5in : 6ft. A wall is 30 ft long. How long will the wall be on the drawing?
g100num [7]
The scale 0.5 in : 6 ft, means that

any distance of 0.5 in on paper, represents 6 ft in reality


for example:
 
0.5*2= 1(in) represents 6*2=12 (ft)

0.5*4= 2(in) represents 6*4=24 (ft) 

0.5*10=5(in) represents 6*10=60 (ft) and so on...


Let the wall be x (in) in the drawing:

0.5 (in) represents 6 (ft),
 x (in) represents 30 (ft)
----------------------------------------

thus x = (0.5*30)/6 = 15/6= 2.5 (in)


Answer: 2.5 in

We can divide the above figure into two rectangles MNSR and OPQS.

The dimension of rectangle MNSR is 3 x 4 (Since, MR = 3 and MN = 4).

So, area of rectangle MNSR = 3* 4 = 12 square units.

Similarly dimension of rectangle OPQS is 3 x 1 because

PQ = MR - NO = 3 - 2 = 1

SQ = RQ - MN = 7 - 4 = 3.

So, area of OPQS = 3* 1 = 3 square units.

Hence, the area of polygon MNOPQR = Area of rectangle MNSR that is 12 square units + Area of rectangle OPQS that is 3 square units.

= 12 + 3

= 15 square units.

Hope this helps you!
