Answer:

We also know that the cost for the tax is 6.93 and we can set up the following proportion rule:

\frac{x}{100} =\frac{6.93}{4.5}

And for this case the value of x represent the cost of the suitcase and solving we got:

x= 100 \frac{6.93}{4.5}= 154

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x the original cost and we also knwo that the tax is 4.5%.

Answer:

$ 154

Step-by-step explanation

Let the value of suitcase=x

x × 4.5% = 6.93 (converted the question into equation)

x × \frac{4.5}{100} = 6.93 (converted the percentage into fraction)

x = 6.93 x \frac{100}{4.5} (took reciprocal of 4.5/100 after moving it to the other side of the equation)

x = \frac{693}{4.5} (multiplied the values)

x = 154 $ (simplified the fraction)

1. Chris takes 25 minutes to replace one car tyre.
vekshin1

Chris and Jim must replace a <em>total</em> quantity of 17 tyres.

<h3>What is the minimum number of tyres to be replaced?</h3>

In this problem we must use an inequality of the form f(x) ≥ a, where f(x) is the difference between the number of tyres replaced by Jim and the number of tyres replaced by Chris:

(25/20) · x - x ≥ 3

(5/20) · x ≥ 3

x ≥ 12

Then, the <em>minimum</em> number of tyres to be replaced is n = 15 + 12 = 17 tyres.

Givethanks, an Indian, wants to have a turkey dinner. He and his “dog”, Wolf, go looking for a turkey. While on this turkey hunt
arsen [322]

Answer: The man and the turkey cross the river, (the wolf and corn are safe together), he leaves the turkey on the other side and goes back across.

The man then takes the wolf across the river, and since he can't leave the wolf and turkey together, he brings the turkey back.

Again, since the turkey and corn can't be left together, he leaves the turkey and he takes the corn across and leaves it with the wolf.

He then returns to pick up the turkey and heads across the river one last time.

...... this is a very old riddle. lol I had forgotten about it.
