Answer:

6.85% decrease

Step-by-step explanation:

Initial Price = $3.65

Final Price = $3.40

Difference in price = Final - Initial = $3.40 - $3.65 = - $0.25

The negative sign indicates that the price decreased hence we can say that the decrease is positive $0.25.

% decrease

= (Amount decreased / initial price) x 100%

= (0.25 / 3.65) x 100%

= 6.85% decrease

David hikes 21/4 miles in 1/2 an hour. What is his rate in miles per hour? At this rate, how long will it take him to walk 18 mi
harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

A) speed = 10.5 miles per hour

B) Time taken by him = 1.714 hours

C)  Distance = 10.5 mph × 7 hours = 73.5   miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Given as :

The distance cover by David = \frac{21}{4} miles = 5.25 miles

The time taken by David        = \frac{1}{2}  hours  = 0.5 hours

Let the speed                          = x mile per hour

So, Distance = Speed × Time

A)or,  Speed = \frac{Distance}{Time}

Or,  Speed = \frac{5.25}{0.5}

∴     speed = 10.5 miles per hour

<u>B) Again The Distance cover by him = 18 miles</u>

SO, with speed 10.5 miles per hour

The Time taken by him =  \frac{Distance}{speed} hours

Or, Time taken by him =  \frac{18}{10.5} hours

∴    Time taken by him = 1.714 hours

<u>C) Again the Time taken by him = 7 hours   </u>

So, Distance cover by him with speed 10.5 mph

Or, Distance = 10.5 mph × 7 hours = 73.5   miles

A) speed = 10.5 miles per hour

B) Time taken by him = 1.714 hours

C)  Distance = 10.5 mph × 7 hours = 73.5   miles   Answes
