Answer:
x=41
Step-by-step explanation:
0.25(x-13)=7
We move all terms to the left:
0.25(x-13)-(7)=0
We multiply parentheses
0.25x-3.25-7=0
We add all the numbers together, and all the variables
0.25x-10.25=0
We move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right
0.25x=10.25
x=10.25/0.25
x=41
To find the original price before the increase, divide the new price by 1 + the percent of increase.
198 / 1.20 = 165
The original price was $165
70% equals to 70/100 in fraction form.
But, you need to write it in simplest form. so, divide both of them from 10 'cause they both can divide completely by it.
70/100 = 7/10
so, your answer is 7/10
Answer:
135 cm²
Step-by-step explanation:
The area (A) of a trapezoid is calculated as
A = 
h(a + b)
where h is the height and a, b the parallel bases
Here h = 9, a = 13 and b = 17 , thus
A = × 9 × (13 + 17)
= 0.5 × 9 × 30
= 135 cm²
