Answer: 40%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A pair of snow boots at an equipment store in big bear that originally cost $60 is on sale for $36.

The discount amount = Original cost - Sale cost

= $60-$36=$24

Now, the rate of discount is given by :-

\text{Rate of discount }=\dfrac{\text{Discount}}{\text{Original cost}}\times100\\\\=\dfrac{24}{60}\times100\\\\=40\%

Hence, the rate of discount= 40%

The answer is a 40% discount because it costs $24 less than the original price and 24 divided by 60 is .4 or 40%!

A bank loaned out $8200, part of it at a rate of 7.9% per year and the rest of it at a rate of 7.4% per year. The total amount o
Lady bird [3.3K]

The amount that the bank loaned out at 7.9% is $1,574.00

How do represent the amounts lent at different rates?

On the assumption that x amount was loaned at 7.9% and that the remaining amount, (8,200-x) was loan out at 7.4%, we can determine the interest charged on each loan as the loan multiplied by the interest rate

interest on 7.9% loan=7.9%*x=0.079x

interest on 7.4% loan=7.4%*(8200-x)

interest on 7.4% loan=606.80-0.074x

total interest=0.079x+606.80-0.074x

total interest=0.005x+606.80

total interest on loans=614.67

614.67=0.005x+606.80

614.67-606.80=0.005x

7.87=0.005x

x=7.87/0.005

x=amount loaned at 7.9%=$1,574.00

y=$8200-$1574

y=$6,626.00

First, you need to find the total amount they discounted.

3.66 X 3= $10.97

Since they took off that much, you need to add that to the total cost, which was 62. 31

62.31 + 10.97= $73.29

Finally, to find how much each individual shirt cost, you divided it by 3.

73.29 / 3= $24. 43

The answer is C
