Answer:

  A:  50/80

Step-by-step explanation:

A ratio will form a proportion with 5/8 when it is equal to 5/8. (A proportion is a statement that two ratios are equal.)

The offered fractions have reduced values of ...

  • 50/80 = 5/8 . . . . . the ratio you're looking for
  • 40/80 = 1/2
  • 55/64 = 55/64
  • 50/88 = 25/44

As you can see, only the first answer choice has a value of 5/8, so that is the one that will form a proportion with 5/8:

  5/8 = 50/80

Scott bought a pen and received change of $4.75 in 25 coins, all dimes and quarters. How many of each kind did he receive?
dangina [55]

Answer:

He received 10 dimes and 15 quarters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimes = $0.10

Quarters = $0.25

Variable x = dimes

Variable y = quarters

Create a pair of linear equations:

0.10x + 0.25y = 4.75

x + y = 25

Isolate any variable, using an equation of your choice:

x + y = 25

x = 25 - y

Plug in this new value of x into the other equation:

0.10(25 - y) + 0.25y = 4.75

Use the distributive property:

2.5 - 0.10y + 0.25y = 4.75

Combine like terms:

2.5 + 0.15y = 4.75

Isolate variable y:

0.15y = 2.25

y = 15

Plug in the value of y into any equation:

x + y = 25

x + 15 = 25

Isolate variable x:

x = 10

What is the selling price of an item if the original cost is $784.50 and the markup on the item is 6.5 percent?
JulijaS [17]

Answer:

Solution:

Given, cost price = $784.50

Profit = 6.5% of cost price

        = 6.5/100 × $784.50

        = $50.9925 [since, profit% is always on C.P.]

And selling price = cost price + profit

                      = $784.50 + $50.9925

                      = $835.4925

Hence, selling price = $835.4925
