Answer:
The selling price of the agenda book is $6.38 to the nearest cent.
Step-by-step explanation:
Assume that the cost price of the agenda book is 100%
∵ The discount is 15%
∵ The selling price = the cost price - discount amount
∴ The selling price = 100% - 15%
→ That means the selling price is 85% of the cost price
∵ The cost price = $7.50
∴ The selling price = 85% × 7.50
→ Change 85% to a number by divide it by 100
∴ The selling price = 
× 7.50
∴ The selling price = 6.375
→ Round it to the nearest cent (2 d.p)
∴ The selling price = $6.38
∴ The selling price of the agenda book is $6.38 to the nearest cent.
Answer:
45
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
a. 61.92 in²
b. 21.396 ≈ 21.4%
c. $4.71
Step-by-step explanation:
a. Amount of waste = area of rectangular piece of stock - area of two identical circles cut out
Area of rectangular piece of stock = 24 in × 12 in = 288 in²
Area of the two circles = 2(πr²)
Use 3.14 as π
radius = ½*12 = 6
Area of two circles = 2(3.14*6²) = 226.08 in²
Amount of waste = 288 - 226.08 = 61.92 in²
b. % of the original stock wasted = amount of waste ÷ original stock × 100
= 61.92/288 × 100 = 6,162/288 = 21.396 ≈ 21.4%
c. 288 in² of the piece of stock costs $12.00,
Each cut-out circle of 113.04 in² (226.08/2) will cost = (12*113.04)/288
= 1,356.48/288 = $4.71.
Answer: 475 adults paid admission
Step-by-step explanation:
1.50c+4a=5050 (1.50 per child and 4 per adult)
1.50(2100)+4c=5050 (2100 children times 1.5 each)
3130+4a=5050
4a=1900
a=475
