Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Both cars, X and Y travelled 80 miles each.

Speed = distance/time

If car X took 2 hours to travel 80 miles, it means that the speed at which car X travelled is

80/2 = 40 mph

If car Y traveled at an average speed that was 50 percent faster than the average speed of car X, it means that the speed at which car X travelled is

40 + 0.5 × 40 = 60 mph

Time = distance/speed

Therefore, time taken by car Y to travel 80 miles is

80/60 = 1.33 hours

Answer: y-1=\dfrac32(x+3)

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line passes through (a,b) and (c,d) = \dfrac{d-b}{c-a}

In graph(below) given line is passing through (-2,-4) and (2,2) .

Slope of the given line passing through (-2,-4) and (2,2) =\dfrac{-4-2}{-2-2}=\dfrac{-6}{-4}=\dfrac{3}{2}

Since parallel lines have equal slope . That means slope of the required line would be .

Equation of a line passing through (a,b) and has slope m is given by :_

(y-b)=m(x-a)

Then, Equation of a line passing through(-3, 1) and has slope =  is given by

(y-1)=\dfrac32(x-(-3))\\\\\Rightarrow\ y-1=\dfrac32(x+3)

Required equation: y-1=\dfrac32(x+3)

Dom has enough tins of paint to cover a total surface of 280m.
Inessa [10]
So he has to paint 255 m from the 280 m of paint he has
First divide 255/280 to give you a decimal
You should get .9107
Since this is in decimal form (out of 1) you want to get percentage which is out of 100 you multiply by 100
So .9107 times 100
This gives you the percentage which is
91.07%
Now it says round to 1 decimal so it would be
91.1%

A certain manufacturer sells a television for $170. One online retailer has a standard markup of 27% and charges an additional 1
blondinia [14]

Answer:

(a) $248.285

(b) $249.441

(c) I will prefer to buy the television from online store.

Step-by-step explanation:

The manufacturing price of a television is $170.

(a) The online retailer charges a standard makeup of 27% and an additional 15% charge for shipping and tax.

Therefore the final price will be $[170(1+\frac{27}{100})](1+\frac{15}{100} )

= $(170 × 1.27 × 1.15)

= $248.285

(b) Now, the superstore has makeup of 34% and then 9.5% charges for state tax.

So, the final price becomes $[170(1+\frac{34}{100} )](1+\frac{9.5}{100})

= $(170 × 1.34 × 1.095)

= $249.441

(c) So, I will prefer to buy the television from the online store because the final price is less and also the shipping charges are included in the final price. (Answer)
